Helpless as a baby. PFFT.
I find it incredibly sad how I’m 19 years old and still can’t drive. It’s not just a matter of peer pressure anymore (although I do feel that a twinge of embarassment in admitting that I’m still dependent on people to chauffer me around because my parents refuse to let me drive, in spite of the fact that they spent thousands of pesos on driving lessons). I’m starting to lose my youthful bravado. It’s getting so that I’d rather commute than risk driving because EDSA scares me shitless. Before you know it, I’ll be 25 years old, running away from a mass murderer with a car as my only means of escape. Chances are I’d rather let the mass murderer get me because I’m too chicken to risk the highway. Okay, that’s an exaggerated example, but I’ll probably end up being something like that. It’s a truly sad thing. The only thing left for me to do is bank on the hope that in five years’ time I’ll be a millionare with my own driver and I’ll never have to do something as mundane as driving from point A to point B. *le sigh*

dang! we have the same dilemma!!! i hate it. i hate it. i can drive around the subdivision (but not that good) and even if it’s just around the corner i’m still scared. i really hate it that i can’t drive!!! it’s frustrating.
hey lauren i didn’t actually get my license till i was 20, your time will come when it means to. besides from the stories i hear from my dad people drive crazy in the phillipines, i’d rather have a taxi take me around when i go there for vacation.
I’m 19 and I haven’t even sat in the driver’s seat of our car yet. Haha. Don’t worry, I share your woes, sort of. I want to learn to drive, but I’m scared of actually driving. >:p bah!
I share your frustration.
I’m 19 and I can’t drive either.
I’m just happy that I have friends who chaffeur me around Los Angeles and Orange County.
he he you are funny. don’t worry it is just a temporary frustration. One day you will learn and when you recall the days before that you will laugh at what you are feeling right now. I think everyone is like that. what happen to your guts? he he no guts no glory.
edsa scares me too. but i’m slowly getting over my fear. practice lang yan. i don’t really understand why your parents won’t let you drive though.
i didnt drive till i was 21-22… i got my state lisence at age 25… so i was driving in cali, hawaii and utah without a lisence for a couple years…
my dad drove when he was 27…
no worries… but it’s always better to get it over it earlier… you won’t regret it.
