If you are guessing its about car learning experience in a driving school you are wrong!!! Its well ahead of all those things...
Today, in the first place, i dont remember what made me decide to go to office in car.. one of my friend even warned me that there is hell lot of traffic.. but i was unfazed.. I told her i would take the shortcut and il be just fine.. never realized what was awaiting me on the road!!!
When i left my place i was so excited.. I drove so smoothly.. not even a jerk.. uh uh.. not the slightest one also.. changed the gear regularly(when ppl saw me driving one advice was sure shot -- Change the gears!!!). I was feeling good.. In background was the song "Its My Life".. what a perfect song.. "It is now or never".. I was humming it all the way before i hit the traffic.. after that i dont exactly remember what song went on in the background i was only concentrating on changing the gears and trying to make sure that i wont bang into someone's car!!
What a welcome it was!!! It seemed as though every Banglorean was on road to welcome me for the new car community. As planned i took the shortcut route till silkboard signal to avoid some traffic.. but fate dint spare me.. As i was taking left turn i could see so many people staring at me as they crossed.. I was miffed and gave back a cold stare.. as i starting moving i could feel some friction from the other side of the car!! I was bloody too close to the footpath.. all those stares made sense then :) the thought of brand new car getting scratched the very first day of driving made me feel miserable (though only for few moments)
I dont know how many people cursed me on road when i couldnt control my car going back.. when it abruptly stopped in the middle of the road.. I was sweating in the car even though AC was on.. when i saw EGL the first thing on my list was to relax.. it was very relieving to get out of car!!
P.S: The very first thing that i did going home was to put 'L' Board :P
