Adult?? Now I am!

I got my instruction license!!!!!

Yes, I'm 20. And no, I didn't have a license previously. This is my first permit. And yes, I know I should have done this 4 years ago, but there's a lot to that story, and it just didn't ever happen. But I have it now!!! I'm pretty excited, if you can't tell. I drove home, which means interstate and then in-town driving. Took my dad to the post office first, though. I did a pretty good job. It's going to take some tie before I get truly comfortable, but most of you know that. This is a really big step for me, and I'm proud of myself for finally getting past the fear that's built up over the past few years and just going and taking the test. I know a few of you talked to me about this several times and told me how freeing it would feel to finally be able to drive, and I must say, I didn't really believe you. I do now, though. I feel like I've actually grown up. I'm not really dependent on my parents anymore. I mean, I'll still have to wait a while before I can actually get my license, but this a good step in the right direction.

Anyway, I've gotta pack. I'm moving back to school tomorrow and I haven't even started to get my stuff together. We start training Monday, so I'll keep ya updated on how all of that goes and how all the RA's fit in together in my building.
