better late than never

I finally had my first driving class today! 3 hours of driving. SO FUN! Except for the fact that the engine died I think about a hundred times today heh.

I thought that this whole 3 hours I will just be driving around the housing area, and he'll get me used to controlling the wheel, the gear and the clutch. But! He asked me to drive onto the main road! I was sooo scared my goodness there were so many cars. I wouldn't be surprised if half of them were cursing cos I was driving between 30-40 km/h. Too bad for them lah hehe :)

We drove all the way to Subang Heights. But now if you were to ask me how to get there I will straight tell you I don't know haha! I was so nervous, so I didn't really pay attention much to which junction I was taking, I didn't look out for landmarks either. All I know is, when the instructor told me to turn left, I turned left. If he told me to turn right, I turned right. Simple. I like Subang Heights. The road is so empty! Every 5 minutes or so a car will pass by, and then the road remains empty for the next 5 minutes. So nice!

And, now I know why people say the slope is the hardest part of the test. Have to balance the clutch, the brake, and the accelerator. Every time, it's either I released the clutch too much, or too little. And then of course, enjin mati. So many times I tell you! Towards the end I started to get the feel of things, but I definitely still need a lot of practice.


So now my only problem is the balancing. Controlling the wheel and changing the gear is super easy! I could do with a little improvement when making a U-turn, but otherwise, according to my instructor, I did pretty well for someone who's not drove before :D
HA! I'll be such an awesome driver haha!

Freeeeeeeeee

No more sweeping wooden floors
No more taking orders
No more keying in orders
No more setting cutlery for customers
No more checking ash-trays ( I honestly think I used to hear my manager shout ' CHECK THE ASH-TRAYS! at least 10 times a day )
No more running into the kitchen saying ' OI! HOW LONG MORE LAH THE FOOD! '
No more carrying trays full of glasses
Oh and the best part, no more dealing with ridiculous 'special requests' by extremely fussy customers. :D



My 'souvenir' hahaha!

I'm sick of falling sick

I'm sick. Again. Honestly, it's no fun anymore. It never was, it's just more miserable now. I want to heal once and for all.

My last day at Dome is near! 15th May, I look forward to the day. Hehe. Yes it's been fun, yes I gained a lot of experience, met a lot of people ( including JJ from Hitz! He's a regular ;) )
But I'm tired. SOOO tired.

So now I'll have more time to catch up. I know a lot of you aren't too pleased cos I haven't had the time to keep in touch at all. Haven't been coming online much, haven't been calling any of you, haven't been going out. I'm so sorry, once I'm done with work we'll start planning ok. :)

And this blog needs to have a make-over. A new look and better posts. All in good time.

Oh one last thing, I am officially a student of Sunway University College. ACCA, here I come.
