The wonderful car ride.
Novelty is a phenomenon applicable to every scenario. Because i just passed driving on saturday, there is this boiling urge to drive to the end of the world and back. Initially i wanted to drive to West Coast Park with my friend. But want is always a baseless thinking waiting for rejection because my dad freaked out on the idea of me driving to such a faraway place. He input factors like greater danger to drive at night and incompetencies of newbies like me. In the end, i managed to persuade him to allow me to drive to science center which is 3 minutes away from my house.
On my way back home, i was in my car alone. As usual, being too adventurous in life, i did not follow the royal instructions and head home directly. I geared towards Boon Lay and sang in my car as if no one could see me dancing away. After just a while, it seemed that i was heading towards seemingly unfamiliar ground. The road merged into a darker space and i felt doom smiling at my stubborn persistence. If only i knew i was actually on a highway, i would be so excited. It took me more than 10 lonely minutes to finally see an exit leading back to jurong east.
By the way, the good news is that i am still alive after the ride :)
