Ok, I am tentatively planning to take the written portion of the driver's
test next Wed. Please think positive thoughts my way so that I can learn all the stuff in the book before then. (Stupid demerit points chart! :P)

I have huge anxiety about driving but I just gotta keep telling myself that I will enjoy having my independence and I will get to drive around with a lot of cool bumper stickers to boot!

2. Thanks! Most of them were put on by mom, since it was her car. But
I plan on finding a few more to put on in the last empty spots. :D

10. I got lucky on mine...
20 questions, and 8 were about "drunk driving". Ok, just say it's bad, give the worst answers for each one... whoohoo, I passed! :)

14. Trust me ...
I was nearly 35 before I took my first written (read: push computer buttons) test for a driver's license.
No worries! You'll ace this part. Just take your time; you'll do fine.

I had to keep telling myself: If a 16 year old can do this, for god's sake, so can you!
:)
Good luck! (you won't need it)

15. Well I am 34 now and I passed the written part at 15, so you'd think I
could handle it now. But man they have added a lot of new laws since back then. As long as they don't ask me about demerit points and license suspension stuff I might be ok.

Really, it's the actual _driving_ that's the problem for me. I hyperventilate just sitting in the driver's side of the car. :puke:
