Friday Finisher 8/9/13

Okay… I am pretty sure this was the fastest week yet! How is it possible Friday! Crazy! Well do I have some news for you!…I got my license! I am officially a licensed driver, o how happy I am. I can not even tell you how nervous I was, I had been dreading the test for weeks, I was so scared. But at the start I calmed myself down, took some deep breaths, and just acted like this was a normal practice with my mom in the car. However, I wish they would just test you on actually driving, like on the highway, when there are other people around. Not stupid parallel parking and K-Turning. Really how often will I parallel park….probably never. I will look for a normal spot 😉 Well anyway I am ecstatic! Nothing will wipe the smile off my face today! Happy Friday Friends!
