Oh the irony...
I should have seen this coming.
Everything was going so well.
So, the past 5 months... I've had one main motive... that motive has kept me going... its has given me hope for better days... it has helped me to think of the future and consider the possibilities. This one motive drove me to make and maintain good grades, a good attitude, and a good work ethic. This one motive was getting my driver's license. All I want in life is self sufficiency... I want to drive MYSELF places... the full time access to transportation made me giddy. That would complete me... it would ALLOW for the transformation stage... It would be the turning point in my life... the dawn of a new beginning of social splendor...
As you all know today was to be the day I got my license... I was more than prepared and I had no doubt that I would pass and drive away with legal ability to drive unaccompanied. When I got there I knew the course by heart and I was as confident as they come. I went up to the man at the desk... politely smiled and handed him my permit... he pressed a few buttons here and there on his trusty computer... he paused... looked at me... and told me that my lisence was suspended for a year 3 months ago after the accident... and that I cant get my license or a work permit for another 9 months. My throat was clenched along with my fists and my eyes burned with frustration, but I dare not cry. I asked him to check again and he came up with the same answer even after checking with his supervisor.
I had spent dollar upon dollar fixing my car, paying insurance, buying drivers ed classes....
And I cant get my license... for another... 9... months...
I was misinformed my more than one person after the accident... we even went as far as to have an official in Tallahassee read us the rules from THEIR book... we got a letter in the mail from the state saying that I had 4 points on my permit and until I have 6 they cant suspend my drivers license.
The system... is on... CRACK.
There is no communication between county and state and they fuck people like me over every...sigle...day.
I hate... the government.
I've never been more discouraged or disheartened.
