[quote name='Dark Slayer120']TMK your like what...25-27 and you don't have a drivers license? No wonder why you can't get a girl friend. What do you expect her to stand on your pegs on your bike as you "cruise around"?[/QUOTE]That actually has nothing to do with it, because I rarely tell anyone in real life this. Very few people who know me in college know this. Only girl I ever told this was the girl I was going to go out to dinner with, and she didn't care (It was also the same girl I started the thread about here).
When I became a teenager, I couldn’t wait until I turned 16 so I can drive on my own. At the age of 15 (close to be 16), I wanted to take driving school (I was in the 8th grade), but my parents wouldn’t let me, told me that I should wait. A year later, I asked my parents again. They let me take the book portion, but would not allow me to drive yet. At the age of 17, my parents still wouldn’t. The reason I had to wait was because my older sister started driving at 15 (having a permit), and she ended up changing for the worst (She ended up vandalizing property, got into drugs, got a few DUIs, way too many speeding tickets, several accidents with an insurance rate of over $100 a month, grades going way downhill in H.S. causing her to almost fail out, etc.). At the age of 18, I somewhat stopped bothering my parents because I became too busy. Due to getting off to a bad start in high school, I worked extremely hard to improve myself so I could get into a good college. I was always taking classes and busy learning stuff over the summers. I ended up going away to college, taking classes often; therefore, I didn’t have any time to practice driving, and I was away from my parents to help me out. I did get my permit in mid 2004, but only practiced two times due to rarely being at home.
[quote name='Trakan']With the amount of time you spend visiting CAG and the amount of time you say you spend on other forums/PS3 games, I don't believe that you don't have enough time to get your license.
Just use your time more efficiently.[/QUOTE]Let's just say, during a semester in college away from home, I really didn't have the time. During the summer while I'm home, it may be possible, but it has been a long time since I was in that situation. It's like, while I'm at college, I have a permit, but whose car could I drive???
Also, I'll admit my permit expires on 5/31/08. Is it possible from next week (starting Monday) to be able to learn enough driving to pass the driver's test before that date, so I can update my ID? Otherwise, I will either renew my permit or just get another Indiana I.D. (my previous one expired last year, so I've been using my permit as my I.D.).
