I can drive! It was my first lesson today, and I had decided to suck it up and go for a manual car- very very very bad move on my part, however if War of the Worlds happened, and all the automatic cars died, I'd be able to drive to safely away from alien doom lasers while all of y'all automatic bitches sauteed.
So we were going around Greenhills at around 8:30 am, and I was like, hey it's not too bad, everyone's asleep yet so I can't drive into anyone! :D And then he went ps bb go to Ortigas Avenue and I was like OH MY GOD THERE'S PEOPLE.
Meanwhile, I was driving a manual car.
CAR: WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO ME.
INSTRUCTOR: um, that is called a clutch
JOSEPH: I always liked walking! It was so good to me!
Everyone on the road hated me; I was on first gear going down Ortigas. Then we went farther and farther into the city and everyone hated me even more there. It was okay though: I'm home, and have 18 more hours worth of classes to figure out how to not drive like a tool.
I'm supposed to be really pleased and proud of myself now, because putting off learning to drive til 19 was clearly such a smart idea, but all I can think of is this will do nothing for me, besides turn me into the family errand boy.
Just think, though. In a few years, I may be able to- no, let's not hope.
