Thanks guys,,lol. My ADI is picking me up at 1:00, and my test is at 2:05 (on the dot,,,lol).  I had a slight panic last night, when I realized that I didnt' ever get a confirmation letter,, but they have me listed for my test,  and all is well.  Been eating bananas like crazy, and 'visualizing' the things I needed to work on. Ick,, fingers crossed that the champagne won't have to just sit in the fridge,,LOL

Well,  I didn't do it  :\\\'(  I should have passed this too. My examiner had me pull over and park a few times during the test, to see if I would park in a safe place, signal that I was going to park, etc,, and I did fine, except on the last time she had me pull over and park 'in a safe and convient place',  there were alot of cars parked on the right side of the road, and I could see that I only had a short distance in which to park,, but didn't signal quick enough to let a van behind me know I was going to park.  I failed on that account. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr,, I am really upset about it, because I everything else fine. Only a few minor faults. I need ice cream  :-\\\\

Aw, tebs, I'm soooo sorry. You definitely deserve ice cream. Go and get some immediately. But it's not the end of the world. All it means is there's a slight delay until you get your license. You know what you did wrong, and to me it just sounds like you hit some bad luck. I think that's about 50% of passing the test, to be honest. You'll do it next time. But I am sorry. :(  (what flavour ice cream? i need to enjoy it vicariously!)

Aw Tebs...you know- the best of us pass the second time!!

You'll get it next time- it's the stupid picky stuff that drives me crazy. I'll poke your examiner in the eye for being so mean!

*HUGS*
You will get it!

Booked again for July 8th. What sucks is that I wanted to have a full license for this next visit to the States.  :-\\\\ maybe I put too much pressure on myself to have it by then,, but crap,, how hard does it have to be?  Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr  As I was driving around with the examiner, it struck me how bad alot of the drivers around were,, and yet they must have passed this test at some point.  :-\\\\ Even the van that was behind me, was going too fast, and way too close,  the examiner even said that,, sheesh.  :-\\\\
