The Turd and I were late for our second lesson D: All because turd face was late -.- Even I was early despite the fact that I had to rush to City Hall to buy a pair of black jeans (because I forgot to take them out of the wash the night before) and run to the lockers to get my helmet.
Anyway, I was wondering how I should react should the instructor make a huge fuss over our lateness when it turns out that it was not necessary after all.
The Turd moved up to the circuit ): while I got stuck in the mini-circuit warming up with my first gear. After about three to four rounds, the instructor finally taught me how to switch to second gear. So all I had to do was start off with first gear, switch to second gear at the first bend, accelerate, brake and switch to first gear before coming to a stop.
It took me some time to get the hang of the whole process because being the non-mechanical kind of person that I am, I had to understand how the hell the motorbike works and operates with the engines and brakes and gears and clutch and whatnot.
And I keep forgetting to clutch in whenever I switch from neutral gear to first gear and ended up killing my engine half the time XD
There was this point when I successfully did a perfect round with the switching of gears that when I returned, the instructor gave me a nod of approval and I got so excited that I threw both fists in the air and exclaimed (rather childishly) “YEAH!” and that meant I released my clutch and my engine died.
The look on that instructor’s face was so funny I nearly laughed out loud. But I laughed at myself instead for being so silly XD
It was SO FUN riding round and round. I mean, yeah, I wished I could do what turd face was doing: riding around the circuit. But riding alone keeps the adrenaline pumping into my blood that it was so exhilarating I did not quite mind that I’m still stuck with the beginners (:
OH! I met Yas! Haha! I was so stunned to see him at the first lesson, wearing the red bib. Apparently his license got revoked or something. I could not catch what he said since he was talking so fast in his melayu accent XD
And after rushing out of SSDC, I bumped into M brother! It was so good seeing him but I was rushing (not to mention all sweaty as well. YUKS!) so I just gave him a quick hug and ran off XD
