A Memorable Event in my life The excitement around receiving a driver’s license permit is one of the few crazes that lingers, especially to recent high school graduate students. The events revolving my experience on getting my California drivers permit vary from having to deal with unpleasant surroundings, never-ending lines, and incredibly rude individuals. In the end, it was an experience worthwhile. As a recent high school graduate, I recall many of my fellow classmates having diminutive goals. There focus was inclined more towards going to prom, going out with friends, and like most teenagers focal goal to acquire a car for transportation. My objective was to graduate high school and continue with whichever for coming events followed. When I turned eighteen soon after graduation the important event I was concentrated on was preparing myself to receive my driver’s permit. I knew that by obtaining my California drivers license permit I would be one-step closer to get my own car, have more independence, and freedom. In addition, I would have the ability to come and go as I pleased. simply, by acknowledging that I had that piece of paper, I would feel more responsible and adult-like.
Beginning the process in obtaining my permit should not have been so confusing. Knowing that in order to receive a permit I had to pass a written exam, a few nights before the written exam portion I would set roughly an hour to review my booklet and study. Because of that, I felt as if I knew what to expect, little did I know what would occur the day of my written test. The day started off smooth, I had an appointment at the Department of Motor Vehicles at eleven in the morning, theoretically when you have an appointment it makes reason for visit faster. The DMV is typically filled with individuals that just want to get things done and depart, and then there are the individuals that cause our day to be longer.
