Planning to go back KL and finally take my driver's license. SUPER OVERDUE.
It's so scary that we're reaching adulthood at a very fast rate. I mean, it's not going to be long before I turn 18, then 21... I still feel like the girl who always wants to play ice and fire/galah panjang after extra classes in SKTK during standard 2. Driving, to me, is one huge leap towards growing up. It always seemed to me that only adults can drive.
And the ones who aren't adults who drive, (aka elder brothers/friends' elder brothers) I just shut my eyes tight, cross my fingers and sent fervent, silent prayers.
I'm finally going to college, albeit junior college; of which is vastly different from my expectations, (uniform requirement, rules and regulations, compulsory 6 subject combinations) and it's not going to be the same as secondary school. For one thing, the teachers keep emphasizing that we're going to be a whole lot more independent, no more spoon feeding, no more telling us what to do every fifty nine seconds.
I suppose it could be good in a way, that it's our responsibility to stay focused. The only problem is whether we ever will.
No more sitting in the backseat, taking a nap whilst my parents drive me around and whinge about the traffic while I fixate myself with my laptop, ignorant to everything around me.
It's my turn in front now, and I can only wonder where it'll take me.
