T0DAY WAS THE FiRST DAY i DR0VE STiCK iN MY ENTiRE LiFE. i STARTED 0FF REALLY BAD. BUT i GRADUALLY G0T BETTER. i ALS0 FiNALLY G0T 0UT 0F THE H0USE AND CHiLLED WiTH MY FRiEND ANTH0NY.
AN0THER L0NG 0NE!
M0RNiNG: so i woke up at like got up at like.. 8:30AM. i thought we were gunna go driving at maybe around 9:00-ih. but nah. LOL. so my daddie made me some eggs to eat! :x i was supposed to be the one making it but all i did was crack the eggs. LOL. :D umm ate while watching "rolie polie olie"!! ^_____^ then i hopped online. talked to bao and i think jermaine.. and maybe someone else. but i forgot! xI and then i played some gunbound.. then i had to leave for my VERY FiRST stick shift lessons.
STiCK SHiFT LESS0NS: well i was partly excited but also scared. it gave me a weird feeling.i couldn't help but smile and try to hold in my laugh. X____X;; so i probably looked all stupid. my dad drove first to dropped off my little brother at his little friend peter's house.. then he drove to the beach so i can learn there. and umm.. WOW, it was harder than i thought. like i stalled a bunch. i jerked my car. i screeched the tires. i let the engine squeal because i didn't change gears. aaaaah :'[ all mistakes of the first-time learner i was told by friends who know how it is. but man.. i felt like i was hurting my car sOooO bad.. it made me sad too! i was sad because i felt like i couldn't do it. but more than that, i was sad that my car was crying ;-;. then my dad drove around looking for a better spot for me to learn.. because at the beach.. >_>;; err, i didn't want to drive there anymore after i ended up pushing myself to drive in the more "open spots". THAT WAS STUPID. really.
so we ended up at this business area. not a lot of cars. so yeah, i took over the wheel. and uhh.. same stuff happened. BUT I DID LEARN TO DO SOME THINGS:
&%*;i remembered to step on both the clutch and brakes wen i want to slow down. for like a turn or something.
&%*;i remembered to step on the clutch before i released the gears back to neutral.
&%*;and i remembered to keep holding on the brake wen i was trying to stop completely.
buuut other than that.. i could not take off. not without jerking the car or making my tires cry. :'( i might have done it smoothly a couple of times, but those are all accidents. it's not like i remember what i do. :/
so then we had to drive on home because ammy got home from school and couldn't get in..
then my daddie took me to try and get it down again. we went to my old junior high near my school.. and wen it was my turn to get the wheel.. something amazing happened. this time, my first time trying to take off.. I DID IT. i was sOooO happy inside! (but i knew i wouldn't be able to do it so well the next try u.u;;) like my dad was like.. happy too! i heard it in his voice. he said "yeah, like that!" LOL. :p buuut.. *cough* umm.. i did those other things as well? EVERY TIME I SAW A PERSON OR A CAR I WOULD FREAK. and well, the sounds that make me twitch came with my fear >_>;; that didn't make my dad too happy. and at this one point where i was supposed to go around our neighborhood.. i did something and it made my engine make a constant cry. i was so scared!! i was like "I MESSED IT UP!! :( I DON'T WANNA DO THIS ANYMORE!" but my daddie fixed it my revving n.n;; YAY! [ vroooom!!! 8D ] and i went around our neighboorhood.. BESIDES most of my take offs, i was doing better, in my opinion. (i didn't want to ask my daddie about if i made any progress ._.;; not necessarily the words i'd want to hear. stuff like "i don't think you can drive this car, lisa" <-- that's LATE SH0PPiNG: i just hopped on the computer and started typing up this entry.. and yeah. IT'S TAKING SO LONG! i guess today is just that GREAT! :) then suddenly ammy comes in and says my daddie's tummie is hurting really bad.. :'(!!!!!! so we rushed out of the house, uncovered her car, went to ralph's and bought some stuff! 2 medicine-type thingies for my dad and milk and cereal for my little brother! lol! went back home, re-covered her car, and that was it! :x
