all I have to do now is wait til march to get my provisionals! nd also 60 hours behind the wheel and 6 hours w/ tht driving school…</p>
<p>UPDATE ALSO: I drove home from Walmart today! Through about four major(ish) intersections and with a Greek chorus of my siblings in the backseat!
My crowning glory was actually yesterday driving home from the dentist with half a mouth full of numb.
But I can’t take my road test til I come back from camp. At the end of AUGUST.

<p>UPDATE ALSO ALSO: I’m still ticket free!</p>
<p>The parents in the Parent Cafe swore up and down that I would get a ticket due to my driving habits. The proclaimed that I was a reckless driver who didn’t know who she was messing with. </p>
