i finally drove solo today. scary task. coz i dun really know the roads very well.. was relyin on my memory of the roads. n the task was to drive back home frm s.gh.
come to think of it.. was quite ez.. but i juz couldnt picture the roads well.. abit unsure n worst was my dad kept tellin me the rd names.. which aint helpin me..i drive by hafin a picture of the required rds/turnings in my head n not my lookin at signs yet. oh.. n my hp batt wasnt helpin me either. it was dyin off.. so if i were to suay suay miss a turnin.. i might juz end up lost=X. which i almost did!

quite stupid or rigid of me.. i had a picture of the roads in my mind so when i exited s.gh n the roads that appeared wasnt wat i pictured.. i was stunned instantly.
worst was the road looked lyk it was headin to some highway which is a big NO-NO to get lost on. so i totally stopped at the stop line tryin to calm down n tink wat shld i do. lucky thing was it wasnt heavy traffic so i could actualli stop there n not move. tink i only blocked one van who decided to over take me.

a U-turn sign caught my eye n "ding" i knew wat to do le.haha. thx goodness. U-turned to the other side n then U-turned back into s.gh. woot. relieved to noe that i was back in s.gh so i can stop at some blks n call my dad to rescue me. he was surprised to receive my call coz he saw me drove out at the correct exit. but i din tink it was leh. anyway.. he came down n taught me how to go out by the other exit.
n this time the roads that appeared in front was wat i had pictured!woot!haha.

so i wasnt that worried of my directions le.. juz worried abt my drivin.. tryin not to panick. was actually talkin to myself in the car.. tellin myself to calm down.haha. i was too high la. especially when i went up the hi.ghway.. kept tellin myself to slow down n not be bothered if the cars want to overtake n oso to check my mirrors n be careful.

exited the e.cp quite easily coz the cars gave way to me.yay.haha. next "daunting" task was to park! my fav spot was taken but managed to find 2 empty ones side by side.. which means i only need to worry abt not rammin into one car on the other side. thot i parked quite str after adjustin a few times...but realised that i "ate up" too much space on the other side.. kinda off. so i had to go back into the car n adjust again. tink i adjusted more than 10 times la. but nvm.. at least it was str in the end.=)

nerve wreckin to suddenly haf to drive solo but at least ive got the confidence to do so now. i juz need more parkin practice!aza! oh.. i oso need to learn to control my clutch better coz i was "vroomin" too much. scared my engine di.e off la.
