Thoughts While Driving on the Freeway

So this past week I had Behind the Wheel--which, for those of you who don't know, basically means you go out and drive around the city with an instructor criticing the way you drive so you know what to practice before you finally go to get your license--and can I just tell you it was one of the most nerve wracking things I've ever done? I mean, it's bad enough with my parents as they both seem to be more nervous about the idea of me driving then I am, but with an instructor? -sigh- Yeah, time to amp up the nervousy setting...
But, it actually wasn't that bad. And I drove on the freeway for the first time, which the instructor thought was extremely hilarious. He was doing anything he could to rile me up before I got on the freeway/highway/whatever and, sadly enough, it works. I'm not sure they're even allowed to do it but my instructor did it anyways. But anyways, as I was driving on the freeway I made eight astute observations. :)
#1, it's not as hard as I thought it'd be. Really, if you psyke yourself out too much it makes it hard to drive, but if you remain calm it doesn't really go too bad.
#2, people driving on the freeway are absolute idiots. Especially those who see you driving on the freeway in the student driver car and really like to mess with you. (Tail gaiting, honking at you, etc.) It's actually pretty funny, especially when the instructor threatens to start something--like giving them the finger--and then blame it on you.
#3, listening to loud fast music whilst driving fast is one of the coolest feelings in the world.
#4, knowing that, at the velocity you're going, if you hit one of those semi's you are pretty much dead.
#5, having the thrill that, yes, there is a possibility you could hit one of those semi's and getting a weird kick out of it.
#6, having your instructor keep saying, "Wow, you're better than I thought you'd be!!" mulitple times and knowing that they probably had a real fear that you'd kill them isn't as humiliating as you'd think.
#7, knowing that from now on you want to drive a huge truck and/or suburban. Something that, if you actually do hit the median or anything else, you'd have a better chance to survive in.
And finally...
#8, if I ever get married, my husband is so driving me anywhere I can make him drive me. Because, quite frankly, I'd rather him do it than me. Unless he's a worse driver than me. Which, you know, I can't really see happening...
Haha. That's all from me! :)
Love,
