Of JPJ tests

On the 24th of March, I was so nervous!! It was the date that I went for my first JPJ test. I was number 27 for the 2nd session. It was a long wait for I reached MSDC (Melaka Safety Driving Centre) at 8.30 am!! My turn finally came at around 1.10 pm. I had to start with the naik bukit. I was so nervous that I didnt get into the yellow line, so I had to go down and start again. After I raised my hand to indicate that I was ready to go downhill, I forgot to get into gear 1. That was when my car reversed. Straight away : KANDAS!! in just 2 seconds. I was so depressed after that but I had to gather all my strength for the on the road test. I greeted the examiner with a smile, and tried to come up with a friendly conversation. Thank God I passed this section with 17/20.

On the 3rd of April, that was a Sunday, my mum had to drive me to MSDC for my one hour practice lesson. The next day was my retake of the on the site test. On the 4th of April, I was first in turn for the Bahagian 2 retake. Again at the naik bukit, I KANDAS!! this time it was because I didnt press enough minyak and didnt control the clutch properly. I failed in one minute!!

Yesterday, on the 10th of April, I went for another hour of practice lesson. I kept on practicing the naik bukit section. The whole day of yesterday, I kept on thinking of the next day's outcome. I continued to pray and pray. Today, the 11th of April, I arrived at MSDC at 10am. My dad had to send me all the way to Bukit Katil. I registered and I was number 15. We had to wait for the 1st session and the 2nd session first timers to finish the on the site then only we could go inside the JPJ office to give our L license. When my name was called, I told the clerk that I would like to be last. Before that, while waiting to be called at the waiting room, I sat outside and kept quiet. I didnt talk to anyone because I was trying to keep calm and not be nervous. I kept on praying to God to help me pass this JPJ test, to grant me calmness and so that I wont feel nervous. I even continued to pray when I went to the toilet XD

I waited and waited and waited. So to kill time, I decided to read my book that I brought with me. Touch points for Troubled Times. this verse is one of those verses that i read, i was calmed. Phillipians 4 : 6, "Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything."
When I continued to pray to God, I could feel the sense of calmness in me. When it was finally my turn, that is LAST IN PLACE, I got the car which I never wanted, WMA 275. This was the car I got last week, and I failed. This car has a lot of problems especially the clutch. So when I tried to release the clutch, the car would not move, I had to release a lot of it, then only it moved.
Then came the naik bukit part. The part I 'LOVED' the most. When I pressed the minyak, the clutch I had to release so much then only I had the feel of the car getting heavier. I could hear the JPJ officer asking me to keep on tekan minyak tekan minyak. LOL! I heard him and followed his instuctions. Finally my car moved downhill!! after 2 times failing. I did my parking and 3-point turn. When I came out from the car, I was overjoyed.

The best part was when I went to get my kad ujian from the pegawai, he asked me. Yang sedang ambil video kamu memandu itu siapa? Boyfriend ka? I replied with a grin. Bukan, itu ayah saya. LOL! When I went to submit my kad to the clerk my hand was shivering as I wrote my name. I went out of the office without my kad ujian! haha. when I went in back, one of the officers asked me to belanja KFC. LOL! I dont think they've seen anyone react the way I did. I was beyond overjoyed! My heart was literally jumping out! I FINALLY PASSED MY DRIVING TEST!!!! so, by this week, I'll be getting my license. So dear drivers, please be careful, because I'll be driving on the road very soon. HEHE! :P
