i nearly got into an accident today! mans. it was damn scary lor. i was having my practical lesson and feeling very blur again.. got honked at once by a car turning right went i was entering the slip road. anw, i could feel my instructor getting irritated with me cos i was still making the same mistakes. truthfully, i was getting pissed with myself too. its like what the hell is wrong with me???!! anyway, he was going on about speed control and how i should go fast when the conditions allow so that i know how to brake and control the car when the occasion calls for it. so i was at a traffic light junction and it was the green light so i was thinking "go go go!" and my instructor was like "yes, that's correct. speed up then change gear up..." then suddenly out of nowhere this right turning car swerved into my path then everything happened so quickly.. my instructor was grabbing onto the steering wheel and honking like mad, i was like screaming in my head "brake brake! Where's my brake?? oh man!! clutch in clutch in or the engine will stall..."

all in all, it was a very close brush but the cars didnt come into contact ie didnt crash and noone was injured. did i mention that the stupid black car that didnt give way was so scared of banging into us that he swung his car so completely to the right and nearly banged into the traffic light himself. so dumb! if he was so scared, he shouldnt have tried cutting me in the first place right??

my instructor said he was probably trying to take advantage of me cos i was driving an L-plate and was bound to go slow. but we're not in the wrong and if he really did hit us he would have to bear all the costs. so ha!

still it was rather scary. to think i could be in hospital now or something. i really thank the lord that im still alive. phew.

i really need to get the hang of this driving thing....

where is the him that i’m looking for… |11:18 pm|
