OT - Backwards again, and switching too - without looking!
Hi ladies! This is OT, I know...but to me this is important. I try not to
feel guilty, even I do, I admit it. There is persons I do not dare to tell this for, but you are different matter. My teacher and me, we left from Lepistö. Near the health center we changed the driver. I took the wheel and off we went. Other cars made me a bit nervous, but somehow we made it through. And somehow I was able to use the blinkblink-thing at the left side of the wheel. My eyes were on the road...and somehow I managed to get my upper and lower body to work in sync. It means I was able to switch from free to 1 and from 1 to 2. I felt it. I did not need to look. I know I sound calm, but I have to. I do not dare to scream my joy out to the world, even I feel this was a step forward to me. Best: Pirjo |

Thanks Ophelia! Somehow I knew you'd live along in this thing. I should have
counted on you more. *blaming herself for the lack of trust* But my driving alone...that time is far away, I think....I do not know all the switches yet. But at least this is a beginning.

Well, that going backwards is not my cup of tea despite we've done it
twice...Teacher has to assist me yet. He has to give me directions what to do, and I try to follow them - blindly. Why blindly? Because I do not have eyes on my back. I know this could be a LOL thing, but in this case...I mean it. Really. It needs a lot of trust from my side, you know. Best: Pirjo Aud kirjoitti ... Better and better! I'm so happy for you!

Pirjo,
The more you drive the better you will become. We all started off feeling just like you do now. To this day I still can't park between two vehicles. You will get better every time. Hugs, Auntie Nora |

Pirjo, I think you will be driving alone in no time at all. You're already
switching without looking, and I'll bet when you first began, you didn't think you'd do that for awhile. I think just about everyone feels like this at the beginning. To this day, I remember the first time I drove on an interstate -- it terrified me in the beginning. As time goes on and you spend more time behind the wheel, the more confidence you will have in yourself. You'll do just fine! Karen in MN "Sorola Pinja" wrote in message news Thanks Ophelia!

It is a family joke that the person that gave my DM her driving test made
her promise to ALWAYS have someone ELSE parallel park (between to cars on the street)! JJMolvik |

When I was taking drivers education, I scraped the car into a parked car.
Thought I would never get my license. But now I have not had an accident for 4 1/2 years (probably a record for me) Just take it easy and you will get through.

Hi Pirjo,
See, we have all had problems with our beginning driving and later still do, so just think positive and smile. Hugs, Auntie Nora |
