XD So I got my permit this morning. After lots of angry voices with my driving instructor.
Him: >> Did you check your mirrors?
Me: Ummm....yes...>_______>
(later)
Him: Did you use your turn signal? ¬____¬
Me: *shifty eyes* Yesss....
Him: Okay Pinocchio, whatever you say. >>
(later)
Him: YOU'RE GOING TOO SLOW!! USE THE GAS!!
Me: *going 70 something mph in a 65 zone* I'M FAST ENOUGH!! LEAVE ME ALONE!! T_____T
Him: Oh, we're almost to the end. Slow down and merge. >>
(later)
Me: *exits and drives past car dealership* O__O WHOA LOOK AT THAT MUSTANG!! *drools and stares*
Him: O____O EYES ON THE ROAD!! YOU'RE IN THE SHOULDER!!!
(later)
Me: *does maybe 32 mph in a 30 zone*
Him: OMG SLOW DOWN YOU'RE GOING TOO FAST!! *SLAMS ON BRAKES*
Me: AHHH! I WAS SLOWING DOWN!!! >___>
Him: NO YOU WEREN'T YOUR FOOT WAS ON THE GAS!!
Me: I WAS BACKING OFF!! SHUT UP!!! >______>
Him: >> *gets all offended* You know, I would never tell you to shut up.
Me: ¬¬; Yeah, yeah. I'm sorry, I'm sorry...
And then they gave me a permit. XD Silly silly people. But no one's dead, that's the important part.
^-^ So then Caity and I went to see Mr. and Mrs. Smith, which I liked. ^-^ It was a different kind of romance movie, I guess. I think it's by the same guy that did Moulin Rouge? (Rach, you would know. :P) I liked it though. It's like...a chick flick. But for dudes. I dunno. It's weird but I did like it quite a bit. ^-^ Then we went to the mall for a while where I felt like I was just gonna pass out for a while. O_O; That was unpleasant. But I'm better. :P Went to Suncoast, saw David (but not at work!! O_O wtf! Did he quit? I dunno. ;^;) and hijaked his email address. Also got the first two Bleach manga. ^-^ Yaay. I like that too.
So then my mom picked Caity and I up, and we dropped her off, and then I GOT TO DRIVE MORE!! *evil laugh* Adjusting mirrors in the dark is a pain. >> But I got that done. Wooo. ^-^ So I drove...around this huge Shark River Hills curve...in the dark going way to fast. XD
Mom: THERE'S A CURVE, USE THE BRAKE!!
Me: I see it!! It's okay Mommy, chill out! XD
Car: *leeeeaaaan....*
Me: O_o;; *brakes a little*
Mom: OMG THERE'S AN INTERSECTION! STOP!!
Me: >_> I DON'T HAVE A STOP SIGN!!
Other guy: *runs stop sign and almost kills us*
Mom: ....Hmm. I guess he had the stop sign...
Me: JERK!! *waves fist* I'm going to turn left. I mean right. >>; *drive drive drive* I have to curve up here right?
Mom: Yeah, right here.
Curve: *is NOT right there*
Me: >> No...no it's not.
Mom: ....Oh. Right. There's the sign up there.
*curve*
Mom: SLOW DOWN!!! STOP THERE'S A RED LIGHT!!
Me: I HAVE EYES! CHILL OUT!! O_o;;
Mom: >>;;; Right. Right. Okay. So you want to go straight here. In the right lane. Not the left lane.
Me: Yeah....I see the sign...>>;
Mom: >_>;;; ....yeah.
*green light*
Me: *DRIVES TO MAKE THE OTHER GREEN LIGHT*
Mom: AHH! YEILD UP HERE! LOOK, THAT GUY DIDN'T YIELD, MAKE SURE THE NEXT GUY YIELDS!!
Me: >> *drives* He has the sign, he can bite me.
Mom: X__X You get that from your father. Defensive driving is a good thing to learn.
Me: Really? My driving instructor kept telling me to be more aggressive.
Mom: ......................Check and see if there's anyone coming. GET YOUR SPEED UP NOW!!
Me: >>; I know! I'm in the accelleration lane!! I learned this!! O-o Is that guy in my lane? I hope not. *merge!*
Mom: .......X___X *sighs*
Me: *looks nervously at lane markers* I'm not drifing am I?
Mom: No...no you're fine on this side...It's just the dotted white line you have to worry about.
Me: ....>>; That's not what I was asking or anything...Yeah. I'm gonna get off at Deal Road and not 66. I don't want to take the circle. They're all maniacs.
Mom: >> Whatever.
Me: ^__^ I GET TO DRIVE LONGER!! *giggles*
Mom: .........x-X Wonderful...
Me: .....*decides to get off at 66 anyway* ^_^ Should I have used my turn signal? *on exit ramp and going pretty fast*
Mom: Yeah....probably - SLOW DOWN FOR THE RAMP!!!!!!!
Me: ^___^ *makes "vroom vroom" noises* This is fun ^__^
Mom: X__X YIELD UP HERE!!
Me: *glances at traffic*
Traffic: *non-existant!*
Me: ALRIGHT!!!! *slams down gas* ^________^
Mom: O______O SLOW DOWN THERE'S A RED LIGHT!!!
Me: I SEE IT!! WE'RE FINE!!!
Car: *stops safely at the light*
*Green light!*
Me: Should I use my blink - no, wait, it says merge right...
Mom: X__X You're right. They are maniacs.
Me: Maybe we're just not going fast enough. *accelerates*
Mom: NO NO WE'RE FAST ENOUGH!! Now you slow down!!!
Me: Why? O_o;; *maintains speed*
Mom: AHHHHHH WATCH THE CURVE!!!! BRAKE!! BRAKE!!!
Me: ^______^ Don't worry we're fine!! *zooms around the curve by the coke factory* Let's go THIS WAY!! *bad driving habits into other lane toward Asbury without using signals!!!*
Mom: Oh...you're going this way...>>;;
Me: Yeah. O_o I can't find the road. Where is it? I CAN'T SEE IT!!! *has left signal on*
