Finally I have it :)

It all started almost 2 years back, my boss called me and asked me to get it as I’ll be needing it in my next assignment in Germany, I knew this will happen some day and I’ll have to get it but dint see it coming so soon…. After 1 hour of serious thinking I decided to go for it. So I called those guys, they agreed and said my training starts the very next day, just after lunch time. Time flashed and here I was, standing there just to start it… I was nervous, getting goose bumps but then I thought everyone does it so why can’t I ? So I started with my training, it went for 10 days, then came the test day, I was confident, after all this practice they can’t fail me !!!
The officer came and asked me to perform. I started but boooom, It dint move a single step, I was sweating, could see a devilish smile in the officer’s eyes… NO !! This cannot be happening !!! I immediately realized I have flunked. All hopes (high hopes) down the drain, everyone laughing at me, How can someone flunk this test ? Got so depressed that dint even think of trying again for more than one year.
Then I gathered some courage and thought now its high time I NEED to have it, I called those guys again and went to their office, after a small revision I was asked to re-appear for the test. This time I knew I’ll get it. I HAD to get !!. They called me at some place I thought I knew but I went to the wrong place and my absent was marked as a failure in their records.
But this dint discouraged me … “Come on !! even spiders don’t give up” said one of my friends, so after preparing myself and practicing for about 4 months I shamelessly went to their office again and I could read “Oh she is the one who have failed twice” in their eyes. But by now I was in “don’t care” mode and I knew it if I don’t get it this time, I’ll never try again. The officer smiled and asked me to reverse park the car and bingo !!! I did it perfectly :). My Driving License, its just kept in front of me and I am staring with a big smile from it.
