Today, my dad took me out to an empty parking lot. I drove for the first time in my life. It wasn't too bad. Granted I never made it over 10 miles per hour.
I felt pretty comfortable driving. My dad only yelled at me once! Which was pretty darned good in my book haha.
I have drivers ed tomorrow. I'm sure it'll be as tedious as ever. I don't expect it to be all that great. It never is. It's also quite easy to cheat.
I will be scheduling drive times soon, so I can finish my 7 hours of driving in drivers ed and 7 hours of observation.
Soon enough, I'll have my 20 hour log too, that I have to do outside of drivers ed.
What was your first time driving? Was it good? Bad?
Did someone in your family or someone you knew teach you or did you go to drivers ed?
Not much happened today. Call this a filler post, so as just to maintain the blog. I'm going to try to update it every few days.

Lovely Day Today
Well, I don't know the driving laws in your state... or country... whichever, but I got my drivers permit(the temporary paper one) today, whilst taking the drivers ed course. Now I can schedule driving times to learn how to drive. I'm so afraid of learning how to drive, it's crazy. I'm more afraid of pressing the brake or accellerator when I mean to press the other. Hopefully, it'll be ok.
Anywho, I probably won't schedule any drive times until next week. I'd like to get my 14 hours done ASAP. It's annoying how I have to miss two days though for orientation and I'm required to make them up. I have no idea when I have to make then up and I don't know how I'm going to. I'm assuming I just have to do the work. I don't know yet though. I'll be asking tomorrow.
I hope to get my license before college starts though. I have no idea when that is sadly enough. Perhaps, if I'm lucky enough, I'll have it a few weeks before I move into my dorm. That way I'll drive around looking for stuff for my dorm beforehand.
Do you know any good stores for cheap dorm stuff? I know Ross and Big Lots are good places to go. I can't think of any others than maybe Target and Walmart.
Also, clothes too. I don't have a lot of clothes. And I'm a big girl too so cute clothes I'm comfortable with are a little harder to find.
Can you think of any stores that might have my size? I'll narrow stores down by what I like.
Thanks much for reading :)

Drivers Ed
I know.
I'm lame.
I'm 18 and today... well yesterday technically... was my first day of drivers ed. I need to get my diploma soon too, in order to get my permit. Mind you, I did graduate, on the reccomended program too, with a 4.125 GPA. At my graduation, when we walked the stage, they gave us the diploma cover right? And after the whole ceremoney where we're dismissed, it was insanely hectic because they made last second changes. I had no idea who to get my diploma from. It was idiotic. I was pissed. I was going to pick it up on the next weekday, but I was so worried over a trip I was supposed to go to that day that I never got it. And I still haven't. I know. I'm an idiot. I'll get it this week though. Probably Wednesday.
Anywho, drivers ed! It sucks. It's really boring and intensive. I'm pretty sure that the first day's the worst. I have no idea what tomorrow holds. But I have something to entertain me! For 2-3 hours a day. Plus homework. Which I'm doing now. It's funny.
What sucks is that I know I'm going to miss two days of class because I have to go to orientation. I have to make up those days during another cycle though. -sigh- I have no idea when that'll be, but I'll get my license. At some point. Hopefully before I start college. And then I'll get a car with a GPS so that I never get lost. But I have no idea when that'll be haha.
Drivers ed blows though. I'm pretty sure I'm the oldest and I'm ashamed of that. I suppose it's not so bad. I'll get through it so long as I don't mope.
I have to be positive for myself. That's something I have to learn and make a habit of, even though my natural habit is to do the exact opposite.
I wonder how this drivers ed thing will go for me. Will I make friends? O.o Who knows? I highly doubt it though. But who knows?
That's all I have to say today. I'll probably post everyday. Like a diary. I hope I can keep up with this though.
