finally i've something to rant and rave about.

i failed my TP test.

albeit it being a first and firsts usually being failures and failures being a taboo hush-hush. cuz i'm really up in arms about it. my instructors too. sometimes i really wonder if it's only in clean, green, perfect Singapore that getting a driver's license and getting straight As come under Life's Milestones. it's getting to me abit. why does everything has to be so orderly, by the book, and worse of all perfect?

why did he fault me for picking up and shifting down too fast? heavy demerits and even on multiple counts... and not like the car in front was just in front. all the Cars-in-front had long left me biting their dust la, even before i hit second gear.

In Singapore's Traffic Police tests, you don't drive to conform just to driving and safety standards. you probably just have to drive in line with the whims and fancies of the silent idiot sitting in your passenger seat and mutedly meting out slapdash penalties for the way he dislikes your driving. Or you.
