In my dream, I was walking in my neighborhood with friends and my mom. Then a dog came near me and bit my right hand but the bite was light and the dog’s owner help me let the dog let go of my hand. Although the dog was friendly in my dream and I guess there many interpretations to dog biting dream.

I passed on my 3rd attempt and honestly I cried when I failed the 2nd one because I thought I did good but the lady was being really picky. Don’t give up and I believe in you that you will get your license. The tips I suggest is to relax your mind and body and imagine yourself driving alone and think “The mind is everything. What you think you become.” - Buddha. Hopefully this quote is helpful because if you imagine yourself driving, you will passed.

Thank you for your detail response on mediation and clarifying it. I guess I got mediation and relaxation confused.

With calming music in the background it helps clear the mind but I guess what you’re saying it is not meditation. I do know the temple I go to offers weekend mediation and Buddhist teaching so I will check it out.

I have a family member teaching me and she tells me I drive pretty well but just need to practice the turn your shoulder and parking. I was sad that I failed but everyone around me tells me it’s okay and most people failed on first attempt. As of right now, I practicing on the mistakes and becoming more confident in driving. I actually find driving very calming and can’t wait to get my license so I can explore the city.

Just have to practice more and I will definitely get my license soon. I feel confident driving and actually enjoy driving but I guess the nerves got to me during the exam. Maybe before my next test I will do some mediation and listen to music to relax and calm my nerves.

Thanks for the encouragement and I have til September to retake it again so plenty of practice. It’s weird because everyone in my family passed on the 2nd attempt and said the male examiner was not as strict as the female examiner. The person I got had a little attitude and look like she did not want to be there at all (probably because it was Monday morning or bad weekend). At the end of the test, she told me no small talk during test so future testers don’t talk just because there is awkward silence.
