Anyway, I felt really shitty yesterday because after school I rushed off to go take my driving test, and I failed. >.< My main problems were not stopping before the pedestrian crosswalk before stop signs (which sucks, because usually I make sure to do that! I don't know what happened this time, might've been nerves. :C) and at the very start of the test, I didn't reverse all the way into the lane I was going to be driving in. *shrug* The other things he failed me on... it was something really weird, like, I checked my blind spot before merging, but then he also wanted me to check behind *after* I finished merging? I think that's what he said... I was too busy trying to keep myself together, knowing I had failed, to clarify that at the time. :/ And the other little thing was I apparently went 55 on the 45-limit parkway while he was making me merge around. I remember seeing it at 50 after my second merge, so that sucks. ;-; I think that was because I was trying to avoid my usual mistake of slowing down before a merge. >.< Anyway, next time I take it, I'm going to request a different guy. This guy was effing HUGE which was just pretty intimidating, but the thing that really bugged me was that he made some small talk during the test... which the stupid pamphlet they give you specifically says they WILL NOT DO. UGHHHH.
Anyway.
Baking was pretty typical today... make a bunch of stuffs... today it was danish style croissants, normal croissants, Raisin bars, and a Genoise cake. Not enough time to finish the croissants, but our raisin bars and our cake didn't turn out so well.. the bars were flat, and while the cake tasted fine and didn't have much of a tunneling problem, it broke while we were de-panning it. :|
Here is my croissant after one of it's folds, our cake mixin', and someone elses raisin bars. xD
Aww, I'm really sorry to hear about the driving test, that sucks. :( Stupid enormous yappy testers! *hugs*
ReplyDeleteWhen I took my driving test I failed three times before I finally passed. I failed because I had the same driving tester dude. He also was kinda big. Did he have really red skin and red/blonde hair (what was left of it)?? If so, I hated him too! He made it really obvious when I was making a mistake, like sighing heavily, grumbling while writing, and acting really irritated. And he got pissed off when he made me cry. ;-; But then I got a nicer guy and I passed. ^_^
ReplyDeleteOh well, you can always take it again. <3
OMG THAT MAKES ME TERRIFIED! lol Don't worry though, I've been stressing about it all on my own. xD Nooo... he was pretty white. hehe. I'm actually not sure if he had any hair though.. I didn't look up that high to check!!
ReplyDeleteIf the other guy is worse then maybe I should hope to get my awful guy again. Jeez... they really need to hire some small, un-intimidating people for this position!!! >:C
