I was very anxious about signing up for drivers ed and even taking the class. This was like an adult thing for me at the time, What made it even more difficult was navigating through the school's website to even sign up for it, it was a nightmare for 15 year old me.

When I was taking this class it was during Covid, That being said all of our classes were online so that made the coursework and attendance fairly easy for me, Our instructor was a retired drill instructor, He was a pretty intimidating guy even in the zoom calls.

I can vividly remember getting into the compact ford fusion, We had pairs at the time, Therefore I was sharing my driving experience with another person, We all had to wear masks at the time, It was finally my turn to drive and as anxious as I was, that pushed me to do great and not make a single mistake. I'm sure my partner felt the same way but regardless of that feeling he did just fine with that being said we had followed procedures and passed without a single mistake.

Completing the Drivers Ed course was a great achievement for me at the time, But with that being said I knew it wasn't over yet, I had to reach a certain number of hours on a driving log sheet, and on that sheet it was a dreadful amount of hours, but I was able to complete it, with the job that I had at the time so it wasn't difficult.

It was about that time, with all of my driving hours logged, I was finally ready to advance and go get my learners permit/Drivers License. As I first walked into the DMV, It was like a foreign land. the beige and fluorescent lights, intimidated me, my palms were sweaty and I was sweating bullets, overwhelmed by all of the different voices I was hearing, with a constant rustling of papers and soft hums from unseen printers. A large clock on the wall ticked ominously and added to my anxiety.

I had finally sat down, The moments dragged on as I watched the numbers on the digital display flicker and change. It seemed an eternity passed before my number announced over the intercom. I walked over to the counter with a stumbly stride, Where the mean looking lady read my paperwork aloud to make sure everything was right and thank goodness it was, I had passed my vision test and road sign portion with flying colors next came the Driving portion

DMV Driving Portion

I awaited patiently outside for the DMV instructor to walk out of the double swinging door, so that I could finish my test, A lady came out greeting me with a big smile. As I got behind the wheel I was filled with anxiety, but I didn't let that stop me, Passing the test felt like an impossible dream listening to the instructor's series of instructions mixed with my own racing thoughts. As we returned to the entry way of the DMV we stepped out side of the car and she congratulated me saying I passed the test. The DMV taught me patience and resilience that day Each nerve-wracking moment, every bout of uncertainty, had led to a rewarding outcome.
