The Road of LIFE is not straight.

There is:
A curve called FAILURE,
A loop called CONFUSION,
Speed bumps called FRIENDS,
Red lights called ENEMIES,
Caution lights called FAMILY.

You will have flat tires called JOBS,
but if you have a spare called DETERMINATION
and an engine called PERSEVERANCE,
you will make it to a place called SUCCESS!

Behind The Wheel

When a teenager hits 16-years-old, the thing that preoccupies their mind aside from the typical "social life drama" and relationships, is their first experience behind the wheel. I remember my first driving "lesson" two years earlier.

It was a sunny, breezy summer day and I had gone out with my sister and two of my best guy friends. One of the two guys, who I will nickname "J", already had a car and a G2 license and basically did all the driving for us. That day, we all decided to just find a nice spot in a field and lay on the grass. So, we found a school with a park/playground near it. As he parked the car, I noticed that the parking lot was empty. I took the chance to drive his car, and, of course, I wasn't very good at it. After driving around for a bit, and practicing my turns, my friend wanted his car back so he made the biggest mistake of his life: he left the passenger seat and left me in the driver's seat... WITH THE KEYS IN THE IGNITION.

So, I did what every 14-year-old would do: I locked the doors and drove away.

:D

It was pretty funny to see him run around and chase his own car. But, since he was a soccer player, he managed to catch up and stop me.

:( Boo. (N)

Ever since then, he never let me sit in the driver's seat, nor even let me sit in his car by myself.

But it was fun.

Can't deny that.
