Oh! The Trials n tribulations of being a new driver (kinda!!)

 



Sooo.hello again! yea yea I know, its been a long time..a lot has happened. I finally applied for and got my license and it has been a tumultuous ride...

So, this is going to be my attempt to get back to writing. Its high time and I enjoy it too much to completely let it go even if I'm drowning in my list of to do items.

Back to the point. I got my license after 4 attempts (whew!!) in June. I did try a couple of Udrive cars around, it was nice but I wasnt able to completely settle in as there seemed to be minor variations in each (minor for experienced people - not me) . For me, these minor issues were actually major major issues. Even the position of the window button could set me off!!

Hence a massive hunt was initiated for THE car. Now, I m not actually a techy person, so I would not actually be able to talk abt rpm or horsepower or mileage or whatever. I only hoped the car would be any color but white or black. Lol! I can see your thoughts go -Lame!! Well, we did go through many options from Toyota Corolla to Kia Sportage to Ford Ecosport to so so much more! I got exhausted and did the best thing possible - Left the whole matter to Allah and belived that He would guide my husband to my destined car!!

N voila!! We are now the happy owners of  a Mitsubishi Lancer -  a GT. (if you dont know what GT is, please Google it!! I did too) and guess what I have named her - Ms Tide . Why? Coz she s white!! If you have ever seen a Tide ad, you will know what I mean.

Well this series , which I hope to post on time will be my learning lessons with Tide. 


P.S to anyone wondering why the car in the pic is red, its not mine!!



Plays of light...

One thing that has always fascinated me is the play of light when it falls on water or crystals or anything for that matter. Yes , the laws...
