munting prinsesa

overdrive...

last sunday, i finished my 5-hour refresher course for driving and i can say that i did very wel...** ahahha!!! applauds!! ** my driving was very smooth and i am very proud to say that when i was driving uphill, the engine went down only once (note: driving uphill is quite difficult coz you need to be able to manage the clutch and gas appropriately so that the car won't move backwards).. ** smiles proudly **

my instructor even commented that (another note: all of the following phrases are true) "nice driving good luck"... haha! he said that i should just practice some more to be able to drive faster til i get used to driving..

after my driving lesson, i was expecting that my dad would let me drive our car.. and he did! but short distance only..this is for real, i thought. and so when i slid inside the driver's seat, clutch down...stepped into the brake and put it in gear one..i said to myself "THIS IS IT!!" and then i put down the hand brake and started to put some gas and put the clutch in its working level...and then...............MY ENGINE SHUT DOWN!!! D@MMIT!!! kuso!! watdahell?????

i tried it once more...started the engine and repeat the steps again..but for the 2nd time...i didn't budge....and the engine shut down!! darnit all!! it took me about 3 times to re-start the engine until i was able to drive the car..

i dunno what happened...i really felt to stupid..to think that i was very happy since i got a very positive feedback from my instructor (who is very strict) and when i tried our own car..in front of my dad...i was like...a moron? =|

though my dad didn't say anything after that, i really felt bad..really. but that incident won't stop me. i will try again and again and again...until i will be able to drive our car...

up to now i am still think what went wrong last night.....

** hmmm...did i step into the gas pedal? i think i didn't hear the sound of the engine roaring after i-thought-i-stepped-into-the-gas-pedal...oh well..
