okay, well, i officially give up. i am totally dying of the cold - personally i think that it is actually a flu, but im not a doctor. =S im going to see one tomorrow, and i think he will give me some antibiotics to make me better. its defo the thing that mum had - i have all the same symptoms that she had; sore head, ache-y limbs, bunged up nose and a ripping throat. =(
away from the subject of my aweful state, today was a surprisingly good day... i had my first driving lesson today. and it was bloody brilliant. my teachers name is collum vaughn, and he is the guy that taught my mum. he is really nice, and really funny. he picked me up at 3pm, at my house. and then he drove up the road a little bit and we did the cockpit drill - DSSSM; and that stands for doors, seatbelt, steering wheel, signaling and mirrors. after that we did some gently stopping and starting - which was actually kinda scary. but what he made me do after that was even scarier - he made me drive through killough. as in through the whole village. and then out the main road, and round rossglass. it was bloody scary. i can change gears, and i can kinda drive - but im too much in the ditch. BUT there was one wee moment when we bumped into tractor and he had to take over the pedals - but apart from that i was driving solo. =D
