Guys, I’m Serious This Time.
January 25, 2007
So I’ve started hard core studying for my G1 - again. I’ve taken the online test countless time (and I failed 3 out of the 4 times) and I plan on reading the Offical Drivers Handbook front to back at least three times. I’ve picked out a date - early February to the middle of February, no later then the 15th. This time I’m serious. I need to get it, I want to get it. I need to ensure that I’ll be free and independant for college instead of relying on my parents and Kathrynn to drive me. I want to be able to drive as soon as I can.
I just hope that I don’t fail. I would have liked to go by the end of January but with exams starting tomorrow, I don’t see that happening. Plus I really don’t want to go on a Friday afternoon. I plan on going early in the morning sometime so I don’t have to wait.
I should have done this ages ago. In the past, studying for it gets hard because I would find myself falling slightly behind in my classes. That’s why I want to go when it’s fresh in my mind. I’m going to try my hardest this time to not let myself put it on the back burner; I should have gotten my licence a year ago.
I have advice to all you parents out there. Tell your kids you are going to take them right on their birthday, whether they’ve studied or not, or else you won’t drive them anywhere. I’ve been lazy. I’ve felt no need for it. I’m sure if my parent’s had done something like that then I would have gone when I turned 16. No, I am not blaming my laziness on my parents, I’m just saying I’ve never really felt a reason for getting it as they drive me anywhere I want to go. However, I’ve just started realizing how stupid I look being driven to school when all of my peers get into cars of their own and drive themselves. Yeah, can you say pathetic much?
So I will buckle down and study this time, and hopefully with the help of JD and other friends - I’ll be able to stay on task.
