Driving Stick

I took a few lessons from Mas a couple of times. All I did was learn how to start up in first and get to second and maybe 3rd if I could, then I would stop. I kept doing it over and over. I tried my best, but nothing great just okay.

So today I go for my first real lesson with a driving school. I get in and I told him I tried it a few times. I knew how to start off, so I tried it. Long story short, I drove up to 5th gear and then down shifted a few times and I did great. I stalled a few times, but it wasn't so bad. He was very pleased and I didn't jerk him and his coffee around. :) So now I'm like, "yeah I'm ready to drive stick and all, yo." But no, I'm not. I will still need to practice before I go out on the highway. I have potential, but I'm not that good yet.

So yay for me! I did good!!!

congrats!! when I learned stick my instructor immediately put me on Highway 101 to San Francisco where I spent the day driving up and down insane hills. By the end of the lesson I truly knew stick. The End.
