I Can Drive 55


Well it's been a long road, but as of today March 13th, 2008 (William H. Macy's birthday) I am finally a licensed driver. It's been embarrasing not having it considering I'm 18 but now it's all good. It all started with my written test which I took earlier this month. I studied that book from front to back, but still fell to a handful of questions regarding purchasing your vehicle and some stupid bicycle stuff. Which I don't get at all "Yeah I got my license, I'm gonna go ride my bike at night!" So about a week later I took it again without missing a thing though I did get most of the same questions... It took me like 2 minutes. Anyways cut to today March 13th, I was pretty stressed yesterday and part of today, being that I had this test and another one in math. So I went down at about 3:00 and was glad to see that I got the hip young semi-asian guy. I was a complete wreck through the whole test, I knew exactly how to do everything he asked, but I did pretty much most of them so-so. My parallel parking wasn't so good and I had some vision problems I guess but nothing too serious. At the end I was incredibly relieved and surprised to hear that I passed with an 82%. I was shocked that even on a sloppy outing like that (probably the worst I've ever driven) was still enough to pass. So now I can be proud to join the other drivers on the road and rub it into to people that don't have it.. Just kidding, hey look how long it took me...

Adventures in the Screentrade.


So this guy in my screenwriting class showed everyone this sweet screenwriting program that you can download of the web for free. It's a lot of fun and certainly makes writing easier. It also offers templates for playwriting, storyboarding and other stuff. If you're interested than I suggest you check it out.
