I took my driver's test and received my license this morning. My score: 72. The score required to pass the exam: 70. When I backed out of the parking lot, I turned the wheels the wrong way, thus making the vehicle (my grandpa's brand-new Volkswagon beetle) drive the counter direction. We then drove through a neighborhood, where I believe I executed everything requested of me perfectly. When we returned to the lot, the examiner had me parallel park, which I did fairly well. However, getting out of the space again turned into a nightmare, as I smacked into the front-left cone. Oh, well.at 12:12 PM
After I took the exam, my grandpa drove me to his house to celebrate my victory with a card game, in which he soundly beat me. I then followed him back to my aunt's house. I parked myself in the street carefully in order to avoid the complications I face trying to back out of the driveway.
I need to read the chapters for all three of my classes at some point this evening, after I take a nap.
