Adults’ View of a Teenage World & First Driving Lesson

Posted on 25/04/2004 by Jenni

I was reading this article (yeah I know it’s old) and it just seemed really strange the way that Internet cliques, something we all take completely for granted, are given a completely different twist when written about by an adult. To be honest, I don’t think that that guy got a very good perception of them but oh well. *shrugs*
You may have noticed something – that I am still alive!! :) Yay go me! Matt is really nice although my dad totally embarrassed me by asking loads of questions when he got to my house because Matt is (probably) in his early twenties and my dad doesn’t trust anybody under 40, especially not if he’s a driving instructor. Matt was really laid back (literally, he drives practically lying down lol) and he’s just as strange as me. Possibly stranger, because he has a tongue piercing. It was good actually, because I figured he’d be some old guy wearing a suit and a mean look, and Matt figured I’d think that so it worked out well all round. He said we’d be going to a ‘quiet nearby housing estate’. Nearby to me is like 5 minutes max. Nearby to him was nearly half an hour. I didn’t do too badly and I didn’t stall the car which is a bonus :) However, we (he) got lost getting back to my house as he knew where we were but not where my house was and it was vice versa for me. We ended up driving round some random place until he got the A-Z out to find the way back, lol. So yeah, I think driving lessons will be much more fun than I thought they would be; Matt has a great personality and he’s the sort of person I get on with easily.

    that article didn’t post cliques in a very positive light, did it? oh well.

    that’s cool, i wish i had more “fun” driving instructor when i learned to drive. my driving instructor was a middle aged woman. she was night though.

    you’re learning to drive on a manual transmission? i would die! i hate driving stickshifts! i’ve only ever stalled twice.. but man i don’t like them.. to much work, lol

    Wow that seems interesting I’m going to start driver’s ed up this summer, after I turn 15. Here in America, as you probably know, teens can get there liscence at age 16. I was surprised to learn that you have to be 18 to qualify for a liscence in England. Anyhow, driving is fun, my dad let my drive his car once with him in a parking lot of an old Kmart that was no longer open. Good luck, I hope you do well!

    The layouts aren’t working. I don’t know if it’s just my computer that’s retarded, but I just wanted to let u know.

    You know, you are so lucky, my friends’ “driving instructor” was this stuffy old guy who followed the 15,000 page (exaggerated, I know) “driving manual” to a tee, and he made my friend do the same. Or shall we say “tried” to make her do the same!
