FAILED. oh well, the least expected of the unexpected happened. up till now i am still unable to accept the fact that i was so kindly awarded with an immediate failure and 34 demerit points. 34 you know. i was so distraught and speechless when i saw my results. and afterwhich i just went somewhere and broke down. i haven't gotten this much before during my practice sessions. oh yeah, and i got a remark from him saying that my driving is no good. i can dare say that it's no good largely because of you, you know. firstly, unlike the other testers, you did not even tell me what my test route was until we were halfway going down the staircase then you just briefly tell me that i'm on route 1. secondly, you were being so impatient and kept asking me to get the car moving like as if i don't know how to. thirdly, you kept changing the route to the courses just because you don't want to wait for other cars. as a result of your last minute changes, i did not have time to complete my safety check before moving off and there you are marking me down on this. lastly, which is the worst, you yourself kept asking me to make left turns/move the car/don't stop there and then you mark me down because i fail to wait for other cars to move off before turning -__- i already knew the gap between my car and the other person's will be damn close when i turn out but you kept asking me to go go go. ya i go lah, then i mount kerb lah. and all you said was "mount kerb." i knew it was an immediate failure but i tried to do my best in the other areas. i still held on to a string of hope cos i felt i did okay for the road test. instead, you gave me comments like "you didn't accelerate enough to 60km/h on the 70km/h road". hell like i don't know how to accelerate like that. twice, there were cars in front of me which were driving below that speed and how can you expect me to go faster when i'm supposed to also keep a safe following distance? then you minus 8 more points cos i beat an amber light. please the car is so close to the stop line that even if i tried to stop, the car will be on the stop line and then you'll mark me down again. damn ZZZ can. i felt so damn yuan wang. at first when i didn't know you will be so unreasonable and niao that you'll minus so many points for me, i still wanted to negotiate with you about my mounting kerb part. but when i saw the paper and saw how many demerit points you gave me, i gave up immediately. and i wasn't really paying attention to you when you were telling me my mistakes. like i don't know. you were the one who made me make those mistakes! except for a few which i knew i did wrongly myself. but i'm sure they won't cost so many points. HAIII. my warm-up session was really alright. the warm-up instructor still said i looked very cool and calm, which is very unusual of the testees. then of so many testers, i so suay tio this freaking niao, sensitive and impatient old man who didn't even give me any form of encouragement after telling me i failed and just walked away. i refused to thank him. hurr. i think my other option at that time must be to get struck by lightning. both ways, i will die. nevermind i will not give up so easily but i will not accept the fact, that fact. there are just too many opportunity costs wasted. i cabbed all the way there cos of the heavy rain for a freaking 39 bucks. and i've wasted a day's pay. i've also wasted my time, my effort and my tears (can you believe three ah peks were staring at me when i was tearing on a bench opposite them under a hdb flat. they must have thought that i'm some emo kid who wants to end my life soon or something.). and lastly i've wasted money spent on the rebooked test fees and also the compulsory revision practices. i just learn one thing lah. being kiasu will not get you whatever you want. whats the point of booking so many revision practices when during the test, you get this i-seriously-dunno-how-to-describe tester who just marks you down on mistakes which he caused you to make. i know i sound like a freaking loser but i think if you were me, you would have felt the same too. i've really never felt so yuan wang in my entire life before. oh well. i shall let this pass man. i'm just worried over how to face my instructors when they see me again for the revision practices. it'll be so damn embarrassing. i know they all expected me to pass. haiz. LIFE's never fair, isn't it?
but, on a happier note, i passed my circuit evaluation for bike today. i think heaven wants to help me get up on my feet again. i almost didn't want to go for the bike lesson cos my eyes were so puffed up and my face looked damn blank, emotionless in other words. luckily i passed this. i thought i'll fail again cos i changed lane at the bend. distracted from just now already ma. but it was a just-pass. i got 12 demerit points zhun zhun. phew. met this guy called joshua who's quite nice and chatty. i was in exactly the same session as him when we failed this subject previously. and actually what made me wanna get over what happened is partly because he went for this subject seven times already and still has not passed yet. but he said he's not gonna give up. he failed today again. i passed. but i felt bad cos i made him make the lane-change-at-the-bend mistake =X he was behind me and he just followed whatever i did. argh. hope he'll pass soon. i should learn from his never-give-up attitude.
just as i was feeling ABIT better after my bike lesson and applying for my PDL, the dentist called and told me about the total cost of the retainers and all. guess how much. if you'd guessed a few hundred dollars, then you're damn wrong man. it's a freaking (fucking) $1700! i don't know how am i gonna tell my parents about this. i know very well that my dad will scream at me and ask me to stop going to the clinic forever. he already refused to pay for any of my dental fees after last month's session. as for my mum, i'm sure she'll just call up the dentist immediately and scold them. for your information, she was the one who called them and wanted them to calculate the total cost of my retainers for her first. oh well, then i'll just be sandwiched in between. most probably i'll end up paying everything myself. i'm such a stupid kid. so much money is wasted on me. i keep failing my bike subjects and i just failed my practical test today. and now this thing is gonna burn a hole in their pockets again (if they'd ever be willing to pay for me). i should just cease to exist from this world lah. spend money on me also no use one. sorry i'm back to my pessimistic side again..
oh well, i think i just need to take a good rest. today really sucked =X i hope i can at least forget abit of whatever that had happened today when i wake up tomorrow. and please not let any thing like this happen to me anytime soon. i already reached the end of the cliff just now. i don't wanna go back there again.
