- to renew my PDL on 13 may nightout
-Realize that I only have 10 more chance of contact with the car before the ultimate showdown.
- ask for learning on 6, 13, 15 June on — 19 may lesson to open slot training for 5more lessons
- apply off on 23 may, 13 & 20 June
- calculate cost for max lesson using this month pay (13*36   3*30 ) = $558
- maximize contact with my relative vehicle on 17 or 18 may.
-I remember i took at least 3, but not more than 5 lessons before May.

1/06/08 log
- need to be more agile
- large busy T-junction can use 3rd gear for chiong-ing.
- approach t- junction with speed then slow when turning
- t-stop give way road, stop & change to first gear  without looking ( looking at approaching traffic only )
- gear c 1-2, release firmly & gradually.

Will need max 18 lesson to pass ??? I dun know
Need to plan for AHM training (outcamp run), guard duty, off and holiday. - plus the standby-info

7/06/08 log
-dun keep turning your shoulder to observe rear traffic; u CAN use the rear mirror instead. :S
-dun not oversteer upon invading opposite traffic. - it’s not your grandpa road.
-maintain land possession.
-  -8 pt( max; fail) for dangerous land cutting
-  stall engine -2pt

13/06/08
- be careful of the slope at the entrance of the circuit. Engage gear one when entering
- do a symbolic overshoulder glance when changing lane. :)
- alternate gear 1—2 , when necessary. Vehicle move with gear 2 when depress with little acceleration.

20/06/08
- always keep left!!!!!!
-mind your speed, dun speed.
-wear geekware for driving test.
Heard from Joseph, the more geek you wear, they least they suspect you to race outside.
— > implies you got better chance to pass.
i wonder if that’s true ?.

Circuit log : 21/06/08
- each circuit obstacle have their own unique approaches. (i.e length, position to enter etc)
- directional change in xNo 19x require to go forward slightly more.
- some parrallel parking to be near the white marking, others on the centre of road
- the stoping/moving on the slope require more than normal accel in order not to backward.
- crank/s-course require really slow speed. Judge the distance with m113 training.

Circuit log: 22/06/98
- miss that STOP sign again! Be LOOK out for stop sign.
- exit of circuit have STOP sign .
-nearing exit route, check out for blind spot. Look left.
-$159 net for Tmr lesson (WTF)
-keep left when entering from left to the slope obstacle . Vice verse .
-for parrallel. Do not overdrive inward.
-minimise pt deducted .. You can do it.
-i spending too much. if fail, I’ll really go broke !

Driving

Nervous as it get, it pass my test today!
