First Driving Lesson (Finally!!!)

Today I had my first driving lesson with my daddy (and my eldest sista actually). So so so so EXCITED!! You may wonder why I am so excited, rite? Okay, maybe not but let’s just say yes to cheer me up :D
Well, I feel so happy because this is what I have been waiting for all this time! It’s been one of my targets since I was in 10th grader. You may check this one out. And I think it’s not much because most of my friends have had their own identity cards (let’s call it KTP) and later after having that one, they’ll have had their own driving licenses. Though some of them only have the SIM C (for motorcycle only), but the rest have both SIM A (for car) and SIM C. So I am kinda envy, peace :) But I could do nothing because I can’t drive so..... I just lay back and take a deep breath, realizing this: I’m so old-fashioned that I can’t drive a car in this modern era.

Do you know why I really want to learn how to drive? I give you the reason, I want to be a cool woman. I don’t want to be a full-time-housewife, I wanna have my own career and I am inspired by them who have their own cars and drive themselves to their offices. Later, I also want to drive my kids to their schools. I want to be a mobilized woman by not depending on others. (you may laugh)

And why I said FINALLY?

You may check the link I have given you above once again. Do you find any clue? Well, it is my biggest obstacle to not practicing how to drive a car. I ALMOST HAVE NO TIME. Yes, it’s yours to claim that I’m busy-wannabe (or in Bahasa we say sok sibuk) but I’m telling you, I am very busy. I had many things to solve in 11th grade (let me mention: Nouveau, SDC, S2LC, PERISAI) and I was like being chased by the deadlines and perfection. Also, as a student, we won’t forget this: HOMEWORKS. Super! I only had limited time to be home, and in that limited time, THERE WERE MANY HOMEWORKS TO BE DONE (sigh). That’s why I’d rather spend my holiday with sleeeeeeping better than practicing how to drive a car.
Well, I also want to thank one my (annoying #ups) classmates, Caca, who one day said ‘Eh, aku kemarin udah latian mobil lagi... Udah bisa belok!’ which later woke me up and motivated me to practice driving a car as soon as possible.

And here I am. This morning I went to Taman Sari Regency Sidoarjo (If I’m not mistaken, I forget the name of the cluster actually) with my dad and my sister (huh, she decided to take a part in this practicing time in last minutes and disturbed me all time). Well, I still can’t drive carefully since it’s just the first meeting (but wishing there will be many more meetings after this) but yeah I’m trying. You know, my car isnt the automatic one so I had hard times balancing and controlling the gas and kopling (I dont know the English ._.v) button. And also my dad once got angry saying ‘Udah udah wes nggak usah! Kamu ikut les nyetir yang mbayar aja sana! Kalo abis kopling trus ngegas tapi mesinnya mati terus gini lama-lama mobilnya protol mbak’ (and trying to uninstall the key) and I was crying (this part is humiliating). So please pray for me :)


And by the way, I hope it’s not too late to say HAPPY IED 1434 H. Minal Aidin Wal Faidzin :)

Sorry I don’t ask any apology by texting or sumthin like that since my cellphone is a total wreck.
Happy Holiday All!
