At the end of January, I entered a driving school near my house. I wanted to accomplish something big and important during the long spring break, and getting a driver's license seemed like the perfect task. Although this turned out to require more effort and time than I had imagined, I am quite enjoying the course. I used to think driving school teaches you only the technical skills, but in reality, I have to attend many lectures about traffic rules, emergency operations, and so on. It is necessary to memorize the familiar road signs in order to pass the written exam, so whenever I am walking down the street these days, I try to pay attention to the signs I encounter and ask myself what the sign means. I may not be able to get my real license before the new school year begins, which was my initial plan, but no need to rush! I prefer to take each step slowly but steadily, and by the time I graduate driving school, I hope to have become a respectable driver.
