Nervous...getting driver's license!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh! So I've had my Learner's license for just over 3 months, and I've taken the driving lessons my mom imposed upon me, and now the dreaded road test is on Monday! 3 days away! So basically, I need moral support, or whatever, cause I'm NERVOUS!!!

Eh, it's not so bad. I'm sure you'll do fine. Just don't run over any curbs. Or little old ladies.

Good luck getting your license. I have had mine for nearly 3 years and in August I will be off my P plates and will have my full license. Yay!
Get lots of practice and try not to get too nervous. Remember: don't speed, don't go through red lights and don't crash. Simple, huh? And if you don't get if the first time its not the end of the world, you can always try again. I'm nervous on Monday because I have a maths and astronomy exam on the same day!. Actually I better go and study now.......

is it on a driving range or do you have an insturctor in the car with you??
the type of test with the guy/gal in the car with you is wierd... but the people are really very nice, so it's cool, if it's on a range, then it's sweet, cause you feel like youve aced it already.!!

A little off topic, but......
....I really like scaring the cr*p out of Learner drivers. I veer in front of them, cut them off, hoot, swerve around them, practice emergency braking in front of them, shout at them as if they've done something wrong, flash my lights at them, etc etc. All of this makes me feel kinda special. Good day. |

Strawberry, there are a LOT of 16 year olds with cars that have CD players where I live, and I don't live in a 'rich' city. ::shrug::

Eeargrh! I failed! Everything was going really well, and We were heading back to the licencing place, when...I was about to turn left and misjudged the amount of space between a car coming and the car behind...and I went and cut off the car behind!..."automatic fail"...eeeeerrrrrrrrgggghh! Now I have to wait two weeks to go back . But, like someone said, "it's not the end of the world". Oh, and I wish I had my own car, but I don't have any money. hehe.

Too bad you failed, better luck next time.
I have a car with a CD player (I put it in because the radio was bad) and my family is not rich. I had to take out a loan and now it is all paid off! I saved up some money to pay in cash as well.
