proud mz

i'm very proud or myself *givin myself a pat on the shoulder*.. i've just went for a full day course n successfully received my learner's motorcycle license.. yay!! it means i've got an L plate to ride around.. it's not exactly a motorcycle license.. it's more like.. a scooter license, since i learnt n was tested in a mini scooter. it was so cute, i almost wanted to carry it home! i did all the tests n passed at 1st go.. there was this 'slow ride' in which we were supposed to ride slowly on a stretch of road in a box of 0.8m x 10m (approx.). we needed to ride as slowly as possible with our feet off the ground for more than 10 secs! i did it in 14.4 somethin seconds!! jacke did it in 14.64 secs, so he was better.. hehee the instructor (guy) couldn't keep his eyes off jacke, kept praisin him in front of me.. tellin me how good a rider he was.. oh god, it was kinda disturbing.. haha, he didn't exactly have the pervert look or stare tho.. n he kept catchin jacke fixin his hair after takin off his helmet.. the helmets were no good, they gave me a headache n made all our hair looked flat!! jacke, april n i went for the course, n all of us passed at 1st go!! yay!!
after the whole day, we reached home about 7+pm, n believe it or not, we bought a scooter before it was 9pm on the clock. we got everythin discussed n transfered, we even went to my sister's place to print out the forms n stuff n she had to download acrobat reader from the net to read the forms.. we did so many things in that mere 1 hour. it's a metallic red Peugeot Vivacity, with a storage box at the back n a visor in front. it is a really really nice scooter.. n we're both very happy.. ;D
i've gotta practice in a manual car soon.. wanna get my victorian license asap. i went to vicroads (relevant authority) n asked about converting my m'sian driver's license into victorian license. this is wat they told me: u've gotta take a driver's knowledge test, a hazard perception test, n a driving practical test. after dat, if u pass, u'll get a full license straight away without goin on probation (since u've been havin a full license for more than 3 yrs). then u bring in ur m'sian license becoz we have to punch a hole in it n invalidate it. KONG!!!%#@*!&#$% wat THE...??? invalidate?? i'm only converting my license??! so i asked them back: wat if i wanted to drive in m'sia? their answer: u use ur victorian license to convert it back to m'sian license.. @#%%$&*$# total Bull$h!+!! but i'm converting my license anywayz.. :P
