i drove so much today! haha; not good for the environment but i'm learning! i drove for two hours after school, then went home, then drove back for class, and then drove home again. i'm feelin pretty good. i still am not too great but i'm getting better and feeling more confident; especially with our huge-ass astro van. which is good; it means i have an auto-transmission car i can drive without it being my mum's new baby. and i can control it. didn't have much homework for school; had some fun at drivers ed. when casey was drawing the train to teach us about rail road crossings, he drew Thomas as an angsty emo angry teen smokin' pot. it was really entertaining. then we were talking about how children in the backseat can cause accidents, and so a girl was like, "accidents in the backseat cause children." it was so funny. the things you learn in drivers ed... bahah. anyway, i'm still not really acknowledging nick (again) because he really is just a dick in every way shape and form. and i still really need to get out of here. also, i still really love him.
