So, mom took me out driving in a college parking lot today for an hour or so. I've mastered turning on the car and getting to second gear.


Woo.

Hehe in a few years you'll look back on those first lessons and go: "Wait, did I really find that difficult?"

Well, it's really just the fact that it was the first time using a clutch for me. I've driven an automatic, and it was fairly easy for me.

You'll be glad you learned stick.

That way you won't be one of those pussies whining, "BUT I CAN'T DRIVE A STICK WAAAAAHHH"

Next step up is learning to drive Three-on-the-Tree.

I was shitting myself before my first lesson, certain I'd do awful. The fact it was sprung on me by surprise the same morning didnt help.

After that first lesson I loved driving, and I cannot believe I used to find certain things hard.

You got up to second but couldn't go further? Once you've mastered one gear transition, what's the problem with the latter ones?



I did driving lessons with a professional teacher. He got me on the highway on the first day. Though the fact that we were in his teaching car with the dual-pedals might have had something to do with that.

Driving lessons. What a scam.

Well, I was already up to ten miles an hour. I didn't want to break a sound barrier or something.



That, and I'm a pansy and haven't gotten use to how sensitive the gas pedal is.

I'll let you take your driving test in one of my cars. Nobody will want to get hit by real steel.
