Now that I have my driver's permit, I started my driving lessons today instructed by my dear husband. Adjusting the seat up towards the wheel was the first thing we did because I couldn't see the road. Reaching the gas and brakes was a problem to me as well. I guess that's what I get from being a 4 footer, lol.

Today, I learned a lot about how to turn and where and when to stop. The problem though is, I easily panic everytime there's a moving car towards me. This is so new to me because I haven't tried driving before. There's really not much people of my age in our province who learns how to drive so, if I was still living there until now, I'd be the first one.

It was a mixed emotions while on the road. There's a lot of excitement and fear. I'm scared that I might hit someone or those cars parking on the side of the road. I kept asking my husband every now and then how to estimate the perfect distance between my car and somebody else's car because everytime I look at them, they seem to be far but then, my husband kept telling me that I'm getting really close to them and might even hit them if I won't move quickly away from them.

We practiced driving just by the neighborhood so there's not really that much traffic which is good coz I still have a lot of things to know for sure about driving and I want to be confident first on these roads before I start practicing on the busy highways.

I'm just so thankful that my husband is such a great, calm instructor otherwise, I'd be more scared coz nobody can focus with a yelling instructor next to you. Tomorrow, hopefully, I'll do better. I'm getting so anxious already to confidently drive on my own. I just don't want to bother my husband all the time when he's at work to take me to the store everytime I'm bored and want to get away from the house for an hour or something.
