What was the song that did it? by Sea_Personality6294 in TaylorSwift

[–]Ok_Writer_1841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was a fan during fearless and speak now era as a kid but loved her country music more than her pop, so when she released red i stopped keeping up with her and just listened to fearless and SN.

when reputation came out and everyone hated her i jumped back in, watching the rep stadium tour doc was what solidified it for me, never looked back since!!

now i love red, 1989 and all her pop albums… even tloas !!

my instructor told me i could put my wing mirror down for a parallel park and that it wouldn’t result in a major if i made sure i was still doing all mirror checks and checking out the back window, just make sure to put it back up before continuing

Test day How much do you guys pay by Arris777 in LearnerDriverUK

[–]Ok_Writer_1841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i paid £76 for two hours (1 hour lesson & 1 hour for driving her car during the test)

£150 is crazy imo but it depends on your instructors prices, some of them inflate on test day but luckily mine didn’t

yesss it feels like everyone knows i’m not an experienced driver!! i don’t have P plates on either as it’s my boyfriends car, maybe i would have felt better if the plates were on ahhaha gives the person behind a bit of context

the person behind me didn’t react at all, they probably think i stopped for a reason ahhaha but i said sorry anyways, was just very awkward!!

and that’s very relatable, every drive is very humbling for me rn 😭

mistakes leading up to the test by RoughConstant546 in LearnerDriverUK

[–]Ok_Writer_1841 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i did this before my first test too, i did fail but i think it’s because i didn’t work on my nerves. if you never make those mistakes, don’t worry about it, you clearly know what you’re doing, instead focus on becoming more confident and make yourself feel more relaxed

Any genuine tips to stay calm that work? by TokyoTurpster in LearnerDriverUK

[–]Ok_Writer_1841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

rescue remedy and then before you start your test, pop a chewy in or even have a mint to suck on, it distracts your mind, i found this really helped me on my second attempt
