Driving Test


TNTOS

378 views

So yesterday, I took the driving test for my driver license.

 

And I failed. Miserably. Not only that, but I may need glasses, too (although that doesn't surprise me, since I've wondered about my eyesight for a while now).

 

Oh, well. I can always retake the test once I get some more experience. I'm still bothered (mostly at myself), but it's not the end of the world. Lots of people fail the driving test on their first try, so I shouldn't have expected much from myself. I'm still not happy, though.

 

But at least I got "The Son of Nepture," by Rick Riordan, after I failed the test. Awesome book. My favorite part was when Mars gave the Roman demigods their "prophecy." Can't wait for Book 3.

 

Oh, and I have finished reposting all of "The Other Tale"'s chapters. Once I finish reposting all of DiH's chapters, I will begin posting new chapters of both epics. Just thought I'd let y'all know.

As to the Rick Riordan book: awesome. I haven't finished reading his Percy Jackson & the Olympians series yet (I haven't gotten the fourth book as of this writing), but from what I have seen he's good.

Too bad. Honestly, I wish that public transportation were more common, but sufficient knowledge of driving is, sadly, a necessity.

 

I found the first Heroes of Olympus book relatively underwhelming, but that could possibly just be because I had been reading some really great stuff prior to picking up The Lost Hero. I assume it that you would recommend Son of Neptune. Is that correct?

Where I come from, you need 120 hours of practice to go for your test. That's a new rule. However, since I have the old permit, I didn't have to (though I didn't find out until I had about 180 hours practice! :P)

 

I have at least 250 hours practice, and will be going for my driving test in less than a week.

I failed the driving test twice, if that makes you feel any better. :P

 

Yeah, you should get glasses before you take the second test; usually the licenses take note of that.

Correct. I recommend SoN, since I enjoyed it quite a bit.

 

Also, yeah, it would be nicer if public transportation was more common. But I live in a rural area, so I kind of have to learn how to drive if I want to get anywhere, heh.
