Email Service Notes 6th March (Celeste)

Are you ready to learn driving a car?

A lot of my friends can drive a car. Every year, they arrange a 3-5 days trip for family or friends during the holiday or vacation. On the way, they can drive the car in shifts(by turns). Since I am not able to drive the car, every time I feel a little bit ashamed. Therefore I decided to learn driving a car.

The first step is need to pass the driving theory test. It is not too difficult for me. I spent two weeks on reading the related training material and watching the training Video. Finally I passed the driving theory test after my efforts.

The second step is actual operation. Oh, on this part, it is not easy for me. I am always too nervous to make a lot of mistakes that includes car break downs, out of control for car speed, parking in wrong place, etc. I almost lose my confidence and want to give up. My coach encourages me not to give up easily. He asked me:” Have you ever had a pet?” I answer:” yes.” “OK, great! that everything become more easiler for you. You should treat the car as your pet. You need to know/understand each part of the car pet then test them. Pls ask youself before the test, are you ready to guide your car pet?” haha, I finally conquered mental stress under coach’s humorous instructions.

I am always too nervous about emergencies like the car breaking down, or speeding out of control, or parking in the wrong place, etc. I almost lose my confidence and want to give up. My driving instructor encourages me not to give up easily. He asked me: “Have you ever had a pet?” I answered:” yes.” “OK, great! then everything should be easier for you.
