It's been really stormy today, so I was worried about the rain dumping on me during the test itself. The sky finally dumped massive amounts of rain on us just as they finished giving the review to me :S Still need practice, and I know that, but I'm sure it'll come in time.
Driving's kinda been a touchy subject with me just because I've had a lot less help from the family to get that ball rolling compared to just about everyone else I know. It's sort of difficult to explain, but it just seemed like most other folks I know had parents eager to get their kids behind the wheel, and on top of that, they'd help em out. I didn't really have that going on with my folks in comparison. Finding people outside of my parents to help was a li'l difficult to do, too. Shout out to my best friend Zach and
for jumping on in when I needed that.

Crongrats!
Congrats on a big step towards freedom of mobility!
I've heard a couple stories about folks that tried to steal other people's cars, but they didn't know how to drive a stick, so they failed horribly and got caught. I see that as extra insurance should someone try to mug me. :P Stuff like this sparked my interest in learning how to drive a stick.
Psst, where are you guys again? :o
I have a lot more fun driving a stick shift. I find it more engaging. Unless I'm trying to eat on the go.
