I have my road test in about an hour. Right now I'm in the car with Michael, my driving instructor who's driving me to white plains for the test. Today is the day that I've been waiting for. I need this, and although the stakes are high, I'm trying my best to remain calm. I couldn't find my permit this morning, but I eventually found it, along with my phone charger in my coat pocket. I still feel nervous, just a little bit. Playing the piano this morning calmed me down and I think of the beautiful music each time I get afraid. Kaylynn and Ronny have slept over, and they're at my house right now waiting for me. I hope I pass, I really need this. I plan on going in with a positive attitude, letting the road test person know that I've been looking forward to this day for a long time. Confidence is key. I mean, if I'm not confident in the way I drive, what makes a total stranger have confidence in me? They see some of the worst drivers, how do they know that this would be their last ride? They put their lives in danger every day so that people have their independence. They fail people every day, they also pass people every day. I refuse to let myself think of anything other than the road while I take this test, I will be focused and do my absolute best.
So, I passed my road test. Thank God🙏🙌
It's difficult to fathom that starting today, I am officially on the road. This is a day I will always remember, this is the day it all began
