YEAH!!! PASSED with 16 POINTS!
the journey goes like this :
i reached at about 8.35am... still can't print out the allocation slip yet. so waited for a while then i saw my instructor. so i went to print out the slip. then went to the waiting room. he came shortly after. and he asked me to go warm-up now. it was still early. around 0900. he asked around if can go for warm-up now... so we went for warm-up session at about 0905. went for the circuit first. parallel parking, s-course, vertical parking, directional change and crank course. it all went quite smoothly. then we went outside. all not bad except that some mistakes occurred. like didn't see blind spots. then we went back to the circuit. my instructor told me to do parallel parking and directional change again. haha. looks like it is quite good to have your own instructor as your warm-up instructor. can have more time. then i went up and waited for the tester to come...
was very nervous... one by one the people went off with their testers... felt more intensed. and i saw my previous tester... was quite paiseh to see him again. haha. but i was lucky not to get him again. he was quite fierce. then after about 6 ppl, it was my turn. my first impression of my tester was that he was quite nice. he still allow me to take a look at the test route for a while and he waited for me. so nice. unlike my previous tester who just walked down without waiting for me and telling me to go down with him. well... then i walked down with him to the car. he told me some instructions and asked me to calm down and told me to go if i am ready. totally different from my previous tester where he did not say much.
so i went off. drove quite slowly. the first station was s-course (2). i was very nervous... but cleared it nicely. vertical parking (36) was next. quite okay too. then slope (51). okay too. directional change was next. at first i thought he wanted to go number 9 ( number 9 was the number that killed me previously ), i was so scared... then he said go number 10. heng. but i was still very nervous. went in and did it quite smoothly. heaved a sigh of relief. then crank course (13). okay. parallel parking (49 i think). not bad. after that, we went outside. test route 7. i think it was quite smooth just that i felt that the route was quite long. haha. then we went back to school. when i went back, i stop at the give way sign there ( the one before entering the circuit road ). then when i start to go, the engine stalled!!! argh. super sian. then i restart and go. but there was a motorcycle on my right. i just looked on my left only. wah. the tester said that i didn't check safety. SIAN. at that moment, i was really scared that i will fail due to that. i am not sure how many points will i get from that... aww...
then we went upstairs. i waited in the room... very nervous... prayed that i would pass. and YES! the tester came in and told me my mistakes. actually i wasn't really listening to him, i looked at the paper and i saw "congratulations!" haha. the tester was not very happy about it though... maybe because it was due to the motorcycle incident.
then he told me about going out to drive on the roads... need insurance all that. must put P plate too. then go down to room 1 to watch the video and do the licence.
haha... whatever it is, i just thanked him and went downstairs. i saw my instructor and gave him the paper. he said "heng ah!" lol. i wanted to give him the bookmark i bought for him... but didn't in the end. hmm.
so i watched the video and did my licence. the licence will reach my house within 1 month's time. in the meanwhile, if i needed to and can drive, i must bring the paper which says "you can drive while awaiting your licence". haha.
10 points in circuit and 6 points on the road.
finally...
I painted my dreams at
1:00 PM
