3 years already: Katie needs to learn to drive!!
katie,rinos:
The driving lesson went well but it was a bit frustrating because we mainly drove in a few streets around my area (& I was hoping to go the the test area). We worked on kerbside stops, reverse parallel parking, blindspots and exit indicators. It took a bit of time to get used to his car but by the end it was going ok. I've driven a few times since: home from clarinet lessons/band and the beach.
I have another lesson on Friday for 2 hours! This time I think we will drive around the test area. I feel like 2 hours is a really long time for a driving lesson but I'll see how it goes.
I definitely want my license by the end of the year so hopefully I can book the test soon! :)

Had another 1 1/2 hr driving lesson on Tuesday. We mainly drove around my area but were working on a lot of stuff for the test. We kinda focussed on lane-changing, 3 point turns, kerbside stops, and reverse parking. I was definitely getting better toward the end of the lesson!!
One of the annoying things about this instructor is that he always gets really booked up. Next week he was full and then he's going on holidays so my next lesson is on the 12th of November. We're going to do a mock test then and I'm also going to book my actual test for the end of November!! Once I book my test, I'm pretty much going to try and drive everywhere we go (& a lot more around the test area)!! :D

How are you feeling about the test? Keen? Apprehensive?

Really nervous about the actual test. I think I'm kinda worried I'm going to make some stupid mistakes and fail. I haven't driven around the actual test area too much and last time I went I started making a bunch of mistakes as soon as I got there because I'm not as familiar with it.
Mainly, want my L's to be over now though. At the moment, I am able to drive by myself most of the time (my dad either tries not to do too many instructions or plays chess sometimes). I really want to be able to buy my own car soon and drive myself places. For placement at the moment, it's a 5min drive but some days I'm going to have to walk there or back which will take around 30min. It'll just be a lot easier to get to places (the station/clarinet lessons/band/work). ;D
