Clearing my head

I have had the passion for cars for as long as I can remember so obviously I have wanted to be able to drive for my whole life and always known I will. It’s just one time my previous instructor said I won’t make it to pass my test and it really did me up big time. I’m going to be straight up, I hate saying it but I did have a thoughts of maybe life wasn’t worth it anymore at the time after the instructor said that I might not make it. I know its sounds so ing stupid but driving meant everything to me, I have been into cars and had the passion for them for as long as I can remember so having that said to me *ed me up big time. I was going to give up college just to focus on this driving thing because in my mind I thought I will pass my driving test then I’ll get a good job with my licence. I have put so much money, I’ll be putting my savings into car and time that is how much I want this. I’m going all out with this. I honestly couldn’t see myself being a none driver all my life and if generally did I wasn’t going to make it I don’t think I would want to be here, ahhh I hate saying that.

I recommend Nigella's Christmas book, there are some wonderful celebratory veggie dishes in there which really taste good!

A licence doesn’t guarantee you a good job. Your instructor shouldn’t have said that, keep persisting with lessons and college. You can do both together. I was a really rubbish driver when I started and nearly gave up, I got back on it and passed first time - you will get there too.

It guarantees that you won't have to use public transport again though. There's no point in having a good job if you can't drive imo, I'd rather be on a lesser job with a licence than a higher job without
