I drove by myself!
I drove without my parents today!! I drove by myself! I drove! Yup! I know how to park already!
Today, I drove to work for morning shift. Just my luck it started raining heavily when I stepped out of the house. So at 5.15AM, my first stop was the petrol station. So stupid of me I went to stop on the outermost side of the kiosk. When I opened the door, rain dropped on my head. I thought have shelter! Hahah. So too lazy to change space, I just stayed there. So then I had to push a button to open the cover where the petrol person would put in the petrol gun into my car. But I couldn't find the button!!! I got so flustered that I forgot how to roll down my window. So I had to lean over to the passenger side, open the door and called out to the staff to help me find the button. I was like "Excuse me, I don't know where's the button. I can't find it. Can you help me?" Hahah! So the guy came over and pushed a button next to my driver's seat. =.=" "Oh. My first time la." Embarrassing shit.
So after paying and getting wet from the rain and all that, I finally headed to work. The rain was so heavy I could hardly see the road. I couldn't see the markings on the road so keeping in lane was a tad difficult. One time, the lane on the road where I was driving was flooded with water and when I drove through, water sprayed from the sides of my car like water fountain or something. I was like "Oops." I don't know if I sprayed other cars with the water but yea, oops.
In the end, I reached work! Yay! I'm so proud of myself. But then while parking I scratched my car when I went too close to the pillar. *Slaps forehead*.
I'm so happy I was morning today because CE was crowded as hell. People just won't stay away.
After work, Nadhirah and I got dressed up to attend Siti's engagement party. Drove there quite alright since Nad knows the way because she lives nearby to the venue. Met up with the rest and went to Siti's place. Took photos, ate and talked. Then time to go.
First I sent Francine to KK with the help of Nadhirah and her boyfriend who was in another car. They led the way without us even asking. Very sweet and thoughtful of them. After that I sent Sahirah back home at Bedok Resevoir and then Huda home at Tampines which luckily for me was next to my aunt's/uncle's/grandmother's house so I already knew the way home from there. Got home and parked my car successfully!! I'm super proud of myself!
In my own world,
