on the go!

ok so i just had my first driving lesson! i have to admit i was pretty nervous at first,especially after my golf cart incident(bad experience), and a little intimidated when the instructer walked up to me and asked me if i thought i was ready. i kinda gave him a "yeah i guess so" and we got started. to my suprise it was pretty relaxed and straight forward. i didnt actually go on a street (at least not a busy one anyway). first he had me preform a walk around of the car to make sure everything was working. he also made me check the oil and tire pressure ,which i had never done before. at last we got into the car and i had to back out of the parking space. unfortunatly there was a huge s.u.v on one side and a little old lady in her buick on the other, which made me nervous while i was waiting to see what the lady she doing and also trying to see around the car. When i finally backed out he just made me do a few turns around the parking lot. after a while he had me go out of the lot and turn right on a street that no cars were on (good for me). all in all i was pretty excited for myself!
well i'm off to homework land. fun! fun!
(if you couldnt tell. that was sarcasm in that last line)

oh i almost forgot. there was a bird flying around my spanish class today! it was pretty exciting. finally it flew out the window so it got out :) just thought i'd let you know!

hmm... well... we'll have to see how you do on busy streets before i start calming down... ^_-
i'm glad you didn't crash or anything, or have one of your golf cart eperiences. haha. i can't believe that actually happened... well, actually, seeing that it's you, i can. j/k j/k. i love you.
well, have fun with your driving and try not to hit anything! (especially cars. no wait, especially people like me who are accident prone enough as it is. =P if you have to hit anything, hit the curb. =P)
