Today was "D" day as Ed and me braced ourselves to sit for our DMV written test. I can't tell you what a nervous wreck I was this morning. But the most important thing is, I PASSED, I PASSED. That's the good news. The bad news is, I have to take my test twice coz I flunk the 1st one. Made 4 mistakes (one is allowed ony 3 wrongs). What a stupid idiot I am. Not trying to make excuses for my idiocy but can tell you that this test is no road test coz it's all about English test as I don't understand some of the questions asked and I had to check it through like a million times b4 I handed it in. It was altogether 18 questions and 3 mistakes the most to pass. My heart beat so fast and so loud when I handed in my paper the 2nd time around and I was so nervous, I had to ask permission to go the restroom so that they can mark the paper and I don't have to wait around for the result coz I may "pee" off in my pants if they tell me I fail once again. I think by then, I will cry. When I walked out, Sam and Ed both clapped their hands. They must've thought I had died inside and wondering what took me so long. In fact, it's no fun taking the exam coz there were so many distractions with announcements over the PA system being so distracting and a child running around while her mom took the exam didn't help either. But luckily, the inspector came and chased the little girl out. There was some peace but not entirely the whole time the exam was being conducted (no time limit).
I drove again today and it's getting easier but still don't know my bearings coz am dependant now on the GPS. Perhaps I should get a map so that I know where places are (N,S,E,W) located. We bought our washer and dryer today at US$1,300 for both items and Ed got himself a 46" Sony LCD TV for US$1745.
Went to finalize all the details for our banking as they messed it up when the account was opened at HSBC. Also, went to close another account coz realized that no point opening so many accounts when we don't have so much money to spread around, hahaha.
Sorry but no Lexus was delivered today as the insurance guy couldn't get the paperwork done on time, no thanks to his bad time management. As a result, no car for today. They will deliver it to us at our hotel tomorrow evening at 4pm. Tomorrow, is carpet cleaning and Wednesday, we should officially stay at 5230. Can't wait, no fun living out of a suitcase. Also, will have to take Sam to VCHS to finalize her course selection and to Gilroy Outlet Mall for linen shopping.
Sorrylah, no pictures yet to share as eveything's in my camera and can't synchronize without my desktop computer. Be patient, it'll be forthcoming soon...
OK, will touch base again tomorrow. Adios! Gute nacht!
