I've spoken to my instructor and we agreed tt wed 17/5 @ 10.30am wld be a fabulous day and gd timing to hve a driving lesson. I speculate tt there shd be lesser vehicles ard since its nt e peak hours nor lunch time. Yippy.. i can speed on e road again!!!
I woke up at 9am. Usually, i wld wake up at 12pm if no one wakes me up. However, I woke up early this morning and cant get back to sleep after tt. "Nvm.. its a gd start.. i shd wake up early everyday" I told myself.
At 10.20am, my instructor called me up to say tt she cmi at 10.30am. She wanted to changed it to 11am instead. "Nvm.. i'm a nice gal. I shall jus rot for another half an hour" I told myself.
At 11am, I waited for my instructor at e bus-stop. e duck flexed her arms and muscles.. cant wait to drive and speed!! woohoo...
At 11.20am, my instructor finally arrived! I ran towards her car... yet she refused to budge fr e driver seat. She wanted me to make myself comfortable at the passenger seat. ???? I was wondering wats e occasion... its nt my birthday.. even if it is.. she wont possibly wana celebrate my birthday w me rite?!! hmm.. maybe its her birthday, she hopes tt i can celebrate w her. Oh well.. i dun mind :)
Then, she told me e horrible truth...
My instructor: "Ah... actually i hve another student learning driving at 12pm leh. Pai seh leh... so pai seh... b cos i went to invite e god but it arrived late.. so i had to wait till now.. tts why i'm late!! Pai seh ah..."
(e duck gt a shock. i mean.. why din she jus cancel this lesson? This is so silly?!! I mean.. i'm gonna drive for like onli 30 mins? She cld hve jus told me over e phone. Issit rlly so difficult? Does she rlly missed me so terribly?!!! )
My instructor: "But hor.. nvm la.. today u dun learn driving.. i bring u go and pray to tt god.. then ah.. heng heng ah.. gd for u oso... tml then learn driving k?"
e Duck: (stoned for a few secs) "HUH?!! Er..... ok lor...........??? " ( deep in tot.. still haven recovered fr e shock)
No... i din go to any temple. I tot i was supposed to be in a temple praying. But, i landed up standing beside a kopitiam and praying in front of an altar.
B4 we went off, my instructor asked me to go nearer to e altar to see e lucky nos. so tt i can buy 4D. Being an obedient gal, i did as told and rmbed e 4 nos by heart.
When my instructor sent me back, i went to buy 4D. Ya, its my 1st time buying 4D. Its a new experience!! I knew tt i'm legally allowed to buy 4D since i'm 19 already. However, I din bring my IC w me at tt time. So, i started feeling kinda nervous.. as if i were underage. Silly duck! When it was my turn, i acted like an experienced 4D buyer. I handed my 'OMR' and money to e lady and got my receipt safely. YES.. SHE DIN SUSPECT ME!! HOORAY!!!
7.30pm:
I smsed daddy. Asked him to help me check if i've jus striked 4D. I was confident tt i mite strike since its my 1st time buying 4D as well.. beginner's luck perhaps!!
Daddy smsed back.. short and sweet : "No strike."
I replied him: "Hw can it be?!!! Did u c wrongly? I dun believe u!"
Daddy replied: " really" (notice.. there's no qn mark or exclaimation mark after e word 'really'. So, i still harboured hope)
8pm:
e Duck reached hme..
and checked e teletext.
Ya.. Daddy din bluff me. i din strike.
