yo i'm back....

--- CENSORED ---

Driving:
haha.... i'm officially sick... feverish...... vomitting cough..... ehz.... vomit inducing cough.... you know how sucky that can feel... cough cough.... bleahx....

anywayz.... went for driving today anywayz..... oh! pai seh.... drove on friday night.... 8.40 lesson.... power pack manz.... night driving and i was covering turning..... junction turn left turn right...... engine died like 15 times.... cause i tension...... must chiong then release clutch too fast..... oh wellz....... but seriously... when i left the safety of the circuit i really felt uneasy....... but then i was about to make this right turn when i saw a large shadow coming towards me with a small side light.... was thinking what the heck was it..... should i go or not....... then suddenly inching forward was soooo not a good idea.... cause it was those freakin huge trailers coming at 60km/h head on!!!! with only 0.5 their lights working...... and its the itty bitty one..... woah scared manz...... debrief was quite ok...... "your lesson only supposeed to cover circuit work only..... but u seem quite steady so i brought you out for a drive on the main roads.... can get a better feel that way.... " that was coolz!!!

today's driving lesson..... i was like..... old man teaching me ahz..... then his english power...... probably short tongued...... and english wasn't his forte..... so jia lat..... thought trying to understand an ang moh was hard enough...... but slowly i got the hang of it..... then he keep on making me go round and round the circuit.... damm sianz.... but during that time i managed to improve my clutching a lot..... consistently smooth transitions with a few shakes ones in a while..... today felt like i was driving some vip.... smooth driving and he made me drive 10km/h below the circuit speed limit.... 10km!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! argh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! was going at 20km/h!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 20!!!!!! i run a 2.4 in 10mins..... ok 10mins 30.... thats how fast i was travelling...... god..... ok... no relevance......

anyway he ws really nice... constantly encouraging me..... but he scared me quite a lot of times..... cause i was like slowing down to a snail crawl to stop perfectly at the traffic light line..... then it was really gentle stop.... u don't feel the car being thrown back... then he went like "YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS" was like..... uh.... i just stopped the car..... whats wrong with that? oh wellz.... haha....

then as i was driving along the road got another + point. instructor asked me to overtake a car pulled over on a 2 way single lane road.... so naturally i have to cross the centreline to pass the car..... at the same time there was another learner car on the opposite side with a taxi overtaking him..... decided to slow down to a stop then he asked me while i was slowing down..... then i told him i would conflict with the taxi.... "YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSs....... very good....... have you drove before? you went to malaysia to drive is it?"

and i assure u i haven't drove at all.... well except on my dad's lap..... when i was like 8 or something..... he kept on saying that i have a lot of driving experience.. and i kept on saying this is my 3rd lesson and thats all! lol.... then he said that by right at this lesson students still screw up the clutch control..... then judgement all wrong and stuff.......

uh ok..... thats good right?

power!!!

Toh, Peter, Lau.... my 1st 3 instructors......
