Whoa...just came home from my first ever driving experience on the roads since I passed my test and my legs are still trembling slightly...hahah..having two drivers with more than 10 years of experience in the car who kept hollering advice didnt make things better. And of course the car that I drove was so powerful that the slightest depression of the accelerator sent the car surging forward, and it was heavier and bigger than my instructor's car. I drove us(mum and stepdad) for lunch at the Empire's cafe where we had a yummy lunch of teh tarik, crayfish horfun, crabmeat fried rice and popiah.

Driving a car famed for its 'safety' didnt make me feel safe driving it,hahah...probably because I was not used to handling such a powerful vehicle, but it felt good driving it, once I got over the initial nervousness. The silent purr of the engine, the smoothness of the drive and best of all, I did not have to keep changing gears. It felt good too, driving a volvo, but give me a BMW anytime man...pity they sold the car already....sigh. But I suppose it'd be some time before I would be allowed to drive the car without the supervision of either of them. Ah well, no hurry, I don't wanna get into any accidents anytime soon.
