156050vy3uoibugr.gifI GOT MY LICENSE!!! 156050vy3uoibugr.gif

Some of you won't even have realised I didn't have a license. Others that don't know me will be thinking 'whoop-dee-doo'. But for me, this was a MAMMOTH event! I had my test this morning at 8.45am and I passed. Hip hip hooray!

Basically, I started learning when I was 16 with my ex boyfriend. He owned a nice yellow and black torana. I had a few lessons but found it difficult to drive without having arms like popeye. I had a couple lessons with the local driving instructor, who had a little clapped out echo. That thing was the biggest piece of shit EVAR!!! And living in Kingaroy, I had no choice but to learn in it. Anyway, a week before I was scheduled to go for my test, I was driving the torana, and we were arguing about something. I pulled over, and asked him to continue driving. He was furious (I can't even remember what about now), and he crashed the thing side on into a nice big tree. Smashed all up my side the doors, panels, windows etc. I wasn't injured, but I realised quickly how easy it is to crash and possibly maim someone for life.

So then several years later, I moved to Brisbane. I met Andrew, and a couple years on, he buys his first skyline. I realise I should get my license and so, go for some lessons again. Booked my test, ready to go! One night, Andrew and I were driving along in Rocklea, when he needs to do a u-turn. He waited for traffic to pass, and half completed the u-turn when I spotted a nice big post box on one of those huge ass cement poles coming right for me. He managed to steer the car so the postbox wouldn't make contact with me, but with his side instead. Once again, I was left realising how quickly and easily it would be to hurt someone dear to you. So I cancelled my test. I didn't want to hurt anyone.

Nearly 2 years later, after driving around on my learners, and after receiving a fine for doing so alone, I finally book lessons, and consequently, a test. I went to all of my lessons, and to my test this morning, which I, as you now know, passed.

I had, in my opinion, one of the fab-est driving instructors around. He is a driving instructor, stunt driver, drifting instructor and advanced driver training dude. Some of the things he taught me, like the push pull steering thing, I first thought WTF :action-smiley-069: but as I practiced it, it made a HELL of a lot more sense! AAAAAAAAND he has spoken to the peeps at Mt Cotton (who despise the skyline club, btw), and he has managed to get them to agree to having us out there for a day! More details to come shortly. Thanks paul :laugh::cool:

My tester was nice... a strange man with a passion for talking about cocaine and immigrants, but nevertheless, nice. I realised one thing though, he spent most of his time staring at my rack! :(

So aaaaaaaaanyway... that is my rant (a happy rant) about me getting my license.

Anna xoxo
