My behind the wheel exam

I just have to share it. Just this morning, i took my behind the wheel driving exam, was quite excited and at the same time, so nervous. Well, im not use to driving that relies on traffic light, stop signs, etc. Because when i was still living in the Philippines, our province don't have traffic light, and drivers have their own little rules when their hands are on the steering wheel. Yeah, i do am guilty on that part. So, when i saw my DMV examiner Javier, oh, he looks cool and nice, unlike the first two i saw before him, kinda strict looking, which can make me feel more nervous to drive. So, did the routine, sign the paper, vehicle checked, and now engines on and we are heading our way to my most awaited part of the exam, drive while i was being observe. OK, focusing on the road, the traffic signs and pedestrian. I'm still cool, while I've been praying so hard to hope i passed this time. And when the exam is almost done, i parked at the designated parking area for examinees at DMV. Turning off the engine, breath and relax. Javier pointed my mistakes, and i said, o-oh! mistakes! And before he ended the conversation, he also pointed the minimum mistakes in order to pass, and he said, YOU PASSED!!! Oh my Gosh! i was so quiet the whole time but when he said i passed, i keep thanking him then i thank Christ the King for guiding me. My Father also thought i flunked the exam cause it was taking a long time to walk out of the car after i parked it. But when i got out, giving him a 2 thumbs up! He was so happy too! my fellow examinees also congratulated me.
I really cant contain my happiness! i can now legally drive in California! And when we came home, i even kid my sister and gave her my results with a sad look on my face, and i said, check my mistakes and teach me those again. She looks disappointed, then i told her look at my reported mistakes, and then told her to look at the allowed, she said excitedly "YOU PASSED!" and i hug her! hay! Little things still matter! Thanks to Christ the King! 1 task is done. Now to wait for my Driver's ID on our mail. =)
