30 day snap challenge #14

      OMG!!!! Yes!!! Yes!!! Yess!!!!!! Oh my god I am so thankful right now!!!! Thank you Allah for answering my feverish prayers!!!!! OOOOOHHHH My GAWD~~ I am a happy bitch right now!!!!!!!
     I was so nervous for my retake this morning I literally went numb for quite a while. All the JPJ invigilators took their time to prepare themselves this morning which made me even more nervous since I was calon no. 3 for the test. I was also made aware that they would usually let the re-takers go first and since there were only 10 of us (for the jalanraya) this morning I became kind of scared. Especially since this time my invigilator was a woman. As you all know, the female JPJ invigilators get quite the reputation for being the more strict and feisty ones. But thank god this one was in a very good mood because I think I wouldn't have made it to the end of my route if she wasn't as happy as she was with me today. Everything went fine except when I was trying to get to the next lanes I was pretty slow so the lady marah me a little but I got her drift so it was cool. The best part was she was the kind of invigilator I could cerita-cerita with so I was happy with that.
   You have no idea how happy I am right now!!!! All the work I've put into perfecting my driving has not gone to waste (I hope) and the people around me were so helpful which I am truly grateful for. Let's just hope I can start driving in public without troubling anyone on the road anymore since I am no longer a driver with a learner's permit. I would also like to add that my lesen L would've expired tomorrow so if I didn't pass my test today I would have been in deep trouble by now, so again THANK YOU GOD!!!!!!

30 day snap #7/ driving fail

Now where's the pretty pink slip for my jalanraya test? Well if you're wondering,  it is back at the driving centre so my driving instructor can re-register me back for ny 2nd try. Yup, I totally failed my jalanraya. The one I was so confident that I was going to pass. Surprisingly I passed my bahagian 2 which consists of the hill, parking and the 3 pointer. But I didn't necessarily have a smooth pass. I had to roll back my car on the first try of the hill and I forgot to push back down my parking brakes when coming out of my parking position (which was reminded by this nice  JPJ guy, bless his soul).
As for my jalanraya test, it was already pretty doomed since the beginning, I entered my car and did all that I had to do before leavibg and when I was about to there was this car in front of me and my invigilator surprisingly asked if I could go pass it in a some what harsh tone which freaked me out and when I was about to enter a road from the simpang I was slightly late (as I always am) turning the wheel out of sheer fear and he asked me about that as well which freaked me out even more. I tried to answer him but all I could blurt out was that I was super nervous for this as I didn't have any other answer. As for what gave a large cobtribution to my failure, I accidentally went all the way to the right side of the lane without proper signalling and couldn't get back to my left ssooo... that did it, he became super pissed and asked me to go to the side of the road so he could take over.  We were on that side of the road for a really long time so he could express his anger towards me in writing (on my jalanraya test slip). I was really disappointed as I let my nerves get in the way of my driving because I was already convinced that I had everything down to a tee.... in the end on the way back he decided to be nice to me and apologised to me a few times but it was too late. I already too upset to process the things he was trying to tell me to improve on. Now I'm even more nervous for next week because for all I know I might get an  even more agitated invigilator that can ruin my test even before it begins. Now everytime I  think about the jalanraya test, all I could see in my head is my jpj guy with his ray bans screaming at me with that expressionless face of his. Ya Allah please ease my nerves and give me the confidence to do my jalanraya test and hopefully pass with flying colours
