Wet Rainy Days in Singapore

That's it!
I have been observing that it always rain just after our car was given a quick 10 minutes wipe when we are lazy or just after a major sweating shampoo wash... is this just a coincidence or what?!! Just last evening, Patrick and the maid did a major bubble bath and wiping for the car, and after that, there's a light drizzling for 5 minutes. Just plain Horrible!

Wonderful news to share, I obtained my driving license, the much converted paper! On my first try at the scary driving test on 4th July 2008 morning, with a very very pressured mind, I proceeded with the pre test warm up which follow with the test. After the warm up driving lesson, my instructor parked the vehicle 139 at Lot 18, he told me that all test car parked at this lot have never failed to pass the test. I am still wondering if he is just pulling my leg or telling me the truth... We proceeded to the 2nd level where he told me to wait in a room with other test candidates, the metal chairs in the room was really uncomfortable as we waited like pigs being taken to the slaughter house.

About 10 minutes later, 3 officers came in, they proceeded with the drawing of lots to determine each candidates' test route. I drew test route 6, which needs me to go straight pass Teck Whye and turning in to Teck Whye past the Post Office...

Next, we were told to take a seat while waiting for the officer conducting the test. In a nervous state of mind, I heard my name being called, the tester did not wear a black sunglasses as I have imagined him to be. He is a elderly, rosy cheek man. The total difference from the stern tester I have been imagining for the past weeks. We proceeded to the car, he told me to relax and treat it as a normal lesson. Definitely, I must have look very nervous wrecked to him... At the end of the drive, he asked me to follow him to a room where other candidates have already finished and are getting their driving reviews from the testers. He marked me a demerit points of 10, and gave me a Passed!!!! Man, was I delighted! I thank and thank him, a very touchy moment for me. Thank you, God!

Patrick hubby tried out my driving skills on the night itself, he said I totally sucked and wonder how in God's name did I managed to pass the test. I told him that I just can't get used to our Nissan Sunny, since my driving lessons were always conducted via Honda Civic. Just another excuse...

I definitely needs more practices... *sign*
