Driving. I think it's like, a big step in my teen life after my first practical lesson today. Like all newbies, what went through my mind was "its just the first lesson..i wont be driving. just looking at my instructor demonstrating!"
Boy, was i wrong. Yes, i got behind the wheels of a car today! And drove around..as i was really unfamiliar, i was inconsistent! its as though my instructor anticipated it to happen! haha. so i was taught..did the same thing repeatedly..drove in circles ard the place..accelerated, braked, changed gear, etc.. Was fine till the place got filled with more cars! i got intimidated and hence accidentally stalled my engine in the middle of a freaking 2-way lane! LOLS. i *action calm face* restarted the engine and made my way back onto the lane.
My instructor was fierce. Scary :/ Made my feet and hands tremble! its like, im responsible for my life. and also his! ...on my first lesson. so had more practice..was better aft tht. he said i wasnt bad for a first timer :D phew. looking forward to my next lesson next week! yet im kinda nervous.
on a side note, i srsly wna have my braces off asap! so annoying. :D

We're not easily pleased with ourselves cause we often compare ourselves to others instead of the little achievements we've succeeded in. I mean, think about it. Not being pleased about your average results because there's people you know whom score exceptionally well. Not being pleased that your boyfriend has the looks and pressure him to look like some celebrity just cause there are hotter guys out there (_l_) ...k i just realised tht curseful emoticon looks like a butt. K MOVING ON.. Not being pleased that your still-intact family isn't as united as those you see on television cause you know there are MORE united families out there. Not being pleased that you have like, 2 bestfriends cause you envy popular girls in school who has like 1o over best buds. Not being pleased that you're average looking cause there's someone you know who is better looking than you are. Aaaaaaaand the list goes on. I dont deny that im a high achiever. But i do constantly remind myself of the little achievements and improvements i do and life goes on. true that the world isnt about me alone.. but if i am too overly concerned about comparing myself to others, when will i learn to appreciate things i do? Just a thought. HEH
