Bidding is over and I can FINALLY sleep in peace.

I must say, I am pretty pleased with my current uni schedule :)

I go to school on monday to wednesday, and my weekend starts from thursday all the way til' Sunday!! (It won't actually be a weekend per se because of all the work I have to do during these 4 days, however, it feels nice to see more 'off-days' than 'work-days') :D

I finally resumed driving yesterday. I was really worried I would go to SSDC looking like an absolute idiot because I didn't drive for about 2 weeks thanks to dengue; I could potentially have forgotten a lot of little (but very important) things.

As if that wasn't worrying enough, I saw the dreaded car number that was assigned to me for the day: 101. (For those of you who don't know how the system works: On the day of the lesson, the system will randomly assign you a car number unless you had booked an instructor beforehand. There is a specific instructor who is attached to the car number so you roughly know who is going to teach you for the day.)

LET ME JUST SAY in the past, the instructor of car 101 was really, really strict and moody, which made the 2 hours painful. He wasn't friendly and you wouldn't even dare to strike a conversation with him. He picked on everything and would stare at you if you made a mistake.

While he wasn't as moody as before, I nearly caused an accident because of him.

After making a right turn on the way back to SSDC, instructor101 suddenly reached forward and pressed the horn 2 times. I went into complete shock and slammed the breaks (did an emergency break), thinking that I was going to get into an accident and I had to avoid it. I made sure I didn't jam the breaks too hard so we wouldn't be injured and the car stopped in time. He suddenly looked and me and shouted "WHY DID YOU STOP? I DIDN'T TELL YOU TO STOP!!" I quickly defended myself, "I thought you sounded the horn to avoid an accident!" I quickly resumed driving; I was BREATHING SO HARD and my heart was just racing. Just had a huge scare but he went on and on about how he could have his license revoked if a car bumped into the one I was driving in and how he didn't mean for me to do an emergency brake.

That being said, the car behind me was travelling at a safe distance so no accident occurred and I could not be more thankful.

Ugh I was fuming at this moment because I honestly didn't want both of us to go into shock and reaching over to press the horn without warning me/telling me if there's a hazard in front was a legitimate cause for concern -.- (fact: he sounded the horn to warn another lorry driver I was approaching as he looked like he wanted to make a turn) Whatever, I kept my cool and told him I didn't mean it and that I was sorry. He then cooled down and toned down a little when he realised how startled I must have looked when he shouted at me.

I still feel it's my fault, I mean I'm the driver after all. For any and every accident, the driver is always to blame. Never the passenger. NTS: be a thousand more percent careful.

Other than that, I still got it! My driving's still intact.
