Searching for someone who can lie down with me on a beach, underneath the blinking stars, and just talk for the whole night...

After taking few days of break after my written exam, i went on with my driving hands-on these 2 days.
At first, i thought the first few lesson would be very slack, as in just sit down beside the coach and watch him drive and see how he manoeuvres the car... But that kind of things only happen in Wonderland and it only happens on Alice... For me, my first lesson was to immediately practise driving on a highway, a highway!!! (wth)
There is another student with me on the car, as well as the coach, giving us instructions while either one of us is driving. So, the other student went on first, with the coach constantly giving out detailed instructions while he is at the wheel. It was my turn after his. i was totally unprepared for this. I didn't expect things happen this fast.
So i alighted, walked to the front door, opened that door, seated myself down, closed the door, adjusted my seat, and then... my mind was totally blank. What to do now? i tried to recall the things i was tested for written exam, but i was not taught on how to start an engine. then i tried to recall if there was anything the coach had told me, but there wasn't any, since that was only our very first lesson. Then i was quite stunned.
Fortunately, the coach didn't scold me for stoning there. He then told me the steps one by one and i followed the instructions with extremely meticulous movements. WIth that, the car began to shake and moved forward and there it went with my first driving experience... Throughout the whole process, i really had a hard time controlling the car. It is equally hard to fan off the fear of having car crashes, accidents, knocking down of pedestrians because i was really scared that accidents might happen since i was still a brand new newbie. So, receiving barks from the coach at times was inevitable because it matters life and death for 3 of us in the car, haha. I didn't even dare to wipe the sweat off my palms fearing that it would affect the steadiness of the wheel and then might get another bark from the coach again...
So on my first day, i have basically learnt most of what is needed for driving, the key point is to familiarize with them (and it is not easy). I went again this morning, and i felt much better with the car, and the frequency of the coach's barking had been decreased.
Haiz, why my father wants me to learn to drive with manual catch and not automatic catch? Without that stupid clutch, driving will be less complicated and a lot easier. Anyway, going somewhere (i also duno where) for a tour tmr, that means i will have a break... yay...
