心事
Hi there!
I just got home from my driving lesson. It has been become a routein going to BBDC for driving lessons on Saturdays and sometimes Sundays. Surprisingly, I do look forward to the lessons. But such a routein to BBDC better discontinue after 30 Jul, which is my test date.
Today's driving had its bit of unordinary. Today was the 1st time that I nearly took the initiatve to horn somebody. I even made some not-so-nice remarks! As for the instructor's reaction, he was either simply patient, or just oblivious to what was going on. I was driving roughly at 60km/h on a 70km/h road. I started to brake when approaching a cross-junction. The traffic light was green, which means technically I had the right of way. But as I was approaching the last arrow (nearing the stopline), a car from the opposite direction suddenly moved out of its 'waiting-pocket' and made a right turn. Sickening! My car could have just ramped into that idiot. Anyway, I depressed my brake even more, just for tat car to drive by. I continued my path straight ahead, and before I knew it, another car slipped out of the filter lane on my left!!! Wah biang! This time round was a L-plate manual car! I wished I had given both the buggers a big loud horn!! =(
Ok, this is perhaps the ironic side. I shall confess that I took my mind off the road several times today. And I did certain moves that my instructor deemed as 'failed to ensure safety'. I made a couple of wide and fast turns, and also tailgated a SMRT bus and a lorry. I was also 'caught' stoning into the blank space when the light has turned from red to green. Sighss... maybe these are considered nothing or even normal to qualified drivers. But I am still a newbie at this skill. I need to 'go by the books', at least to pass my test. Sighs... My focus was taken off the road obviouisly. Well, at least I now know what could happen if I am going to carry my troubles into car and allow them to control the wheels.
I am feeling very vexed and upset, honestly. But I reckon I am still able to keep a straight face. But if anybody bothers to look carefully into my eyes, they might probably sense something is amidst. Well, I am not lamenting that nobody cares. I am just not very good at expressing my 心事 verbally. As a result, there is a tendency of being non-verbal. But I havent gone to the extent of punching ppl or throwing chairs =S I wonder if anyone share the such sentiments too?
Alrightey, shall pen off here. Think I will go and spend time with my bed :) Hopefully a ride to dreamland provides some sort of comfort from the realities of today.
