Vroom Vroom

 Is anyone else going to driving school?!?!?!?

I actually drove last week, held the handle, stepped on the gas pedal, and stopped at red lights. For the first time!

I put in two driving lessons that day and the first lady instructor was so nice! When I drove with her it was my FIRST time ever so I was extremely nervous. ( fun fact I suck at riding my bicycle...so that's why driving sounds so scary for me 🥲) 

Even though I drove onto the curb about 3 times in a row she calmly explained what I was doing wrong and guided me through the other curbs. Eventually, I got the hang of it and she told me I was a fast learner, (even though she probably didn't mean it) it made me feel a bit at ease. The lesson ended smoothly with me being able to turn right and left without any problem and I was so ready for my next lesson.

Fast forward to my next lesson which was about an hour later, I found out that I had a different instructor. I didn't think much of it because I thought it would be the same as my first lesson, which was fun and easy to understand. Little did I know I was going to be tortured. The instructor calls my name and I go up to him and we introduce ourselves, this was completely normal but as soon as I step into the car it's dead silent. I look at him and he looks at me and goes "what are you doing". In my head I thought, I don't know man you're supposed to tell me. 

I just did what the lady taught me to do in the beginning and he looked satisfied so I was about to start the car but then he goes "STOP". So i stop, my heart jumping out of my chest because his voice was so loud. He tells me I need to step on the breaks to start the car, to be completely honest I'm glad he stopped me because we would have died if I didn't but from there I was on edge the whole time. 

Mr.Instructor man didn't trust me with the breaks because he would lowkey slow down the car before I could. He would also let other cars go first even though I was on the priority road (優先道路). Another thing is he would tell me to move like 5 meters and like bro Idk how long 5 meters is so I ask and he laughs a little 💀.  When I almost went up on a curb he was like " NooOOOoOoOo" that freaked me out. 

The lesson ends and he asks if I have any questions, I ask about turning and he shoves a book in my face and says study here. I was so tired and wanted to get out of there as fast as I could so I smiled and said thank you. This was not a lesson it was torture. 

I have another lesson tomorrow in the afternoon at about the same time so I'm hoping I don't get the second guy. I want to say maybe he was also tired and I was just really bad at driving but please pray for me that I don't get him again. It's rainy tomorrow and I'm dreading driving in the rain. Tonight I will manifest a nice driving instructor for tomorrow...
