There's nothing more to say than my driving lessons and work! Yes! That is all that revolves in my life~
Let's just start with work.
I have a great boss, coz she treated the temp staff (3 of us) to Crystal Jade lunch at Great World City yest!! And she even arranged to let us go down for the Roadshow that's taking place tomorrow and Fri at Raffles Hotel from 10am to 5pm! There's an advertisement that's out today about the Roadshow! So, those who are intending to buy a printer, fax, scanner etc, do come down for The Ricoh Solutions That Fit Roadshow! =)
And a great supervisor cum lunch partner! Life's boring now that Celest can't join us for lunch. And Angeline was on MC today.
And a salesperson just came back from Europe and got us chocs! Now you know why I haven't slimmed down. Not when I am with such great people who keeps feeding me!!

Went for driving lesson again. Yes, it's the 9th time I took halfday to go for lessons! Dats as good as a week's work!!
Well, lessons went horribly today. Told you it would be a different story! And I had a debate with CI over the phrase "Practice makes perfect." And look what happened today?! Mon's lesson was totally cool with hardly any major problems and just some hiccups here and there. And he was so impressed with me on Mon. Yet, look what happened today?! I agree, there is some truth in the phrase, but its really one day good and another day bad. I must admit that Mon's lesson was good because we were relaxed and chatty. Also, we did rather easy things like U turn and played on the S course. But today, I was rather tired from the late night last night and my concentration level was quite bad! I tried to take note of the things to do! Today's lesson was full of difficult things too! Had to watch out for the bus lanes and the heavy traffic at Eunos. Too many hazards here and there.
We started off with S course and Crank course. NO, he wasn't joking. I had to do that!! It was super diff!! My arms are aching now with all that turning. And my coordination is totally off! I even hit the curb like so many times! And the car stalled. And I had to reverse! Bad...bad...
Went out to do the usual drive. And I went out ok. Just that I am still not confident of getting out the centre. Did lane changing and its really difficult coz of the heavy traffic and all! I almost caused an accident because I accidentally changed lane when I didn't do the right checks before changing lanes. The steering wheel was sensitive just to a little turn of it. I did cause a lot of trouble for CI today.
Feel really bad to CI today. I defaced his wife and yet he could jokingly say that "aiya! The damage wasn't great enough to change the car!". And there I was in the car already freaking out by all that scratches and damage done by going up the curb. I am so thankful for such a forgiving instructor. Like I said many times, I must be the worst student on earth that any instructor would want to teach. They may even risk getting scoldings and shoutings from me. Well, CI did say sorry to me today!
After a left turn, I knew I needed to do another left turn, but...
CI: ok, down here signal right.
Me: signal right ah? Ok... (I signalled right, even though I knew it was a left only turning lane.) You sure ah?
CI: Yah..signal right. (I signalled right and began turning that direction even though I didn't know where to go.)
CI: Eh! Where you going?! Turn here!! (Pointing to the left)
Me: Orh! You told me to signal right mah! Then I was just thinking where to go also.
CI: Oh no!! sorry sorry! Don't angry kk?
Manz...2 blur people shouldn't be in the car together.
And we went to pump petrol in the centre! It was so fun! Well, skipping the embarrasing part which I would probably tell Weirdz when I meet them. It's too bimbotic...
So, we drove to pump petrol and he was joking with the instructor at the pump station. He was telling me that in any case if I would be late, still must go and attend the lesson. If not, he would have to pump petrol! A "punishment" for the instructors? Hehe!
Today's scoldings were really, honestly speaking, well hurled at me. Reflexes were slow and mistakes repeated over and over again. Even if he didn't scold me, I was already scolding myself during the lesson.
Well, i just hope that the next lesson on Tues would go on fine! And this time, I am going to make sure I have lots of energy and relax through the lesson!
Alright, going to sleep...Yawn...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEL!!! (8March)
And yes, meeting Mel and Mich for dinner tmr night! =)
