First Driving Experience

 

 

Freshman year

Received driving permit

Longed for this day

Understanding driving and safety precautions

Finally my turn to drive

Down the backstreets of Clermont

Scared to death

Not knowing how to turn corners

Always being told to slow down

Finally getting the hang of how to operate the vehicle

Realizing that driving wasn’t so bad after all

I liked how you caught both the excitement and the apprehension of this new step in your life. You look forward to it for so long, but yet it is a little scary too!
