Sembreak Goal #2 Getting my Licence

Monday, October 22, 2012

I guess it's about time I break the news, despite the fact that the news is a month or two late.

I got a new car!!!

2012 Subaru XV Tangerine Orange


Yehp, and she's all mine. Or he. I think it's a he. When guys have cars they often refer to them as females so I'm guessing when girls get cars it's appropriate that the car is male?

What the heck I'll go ahead and name him Mik. Short for Mikan which is Japanese for orange LOL. I'm such a dork. So I got Mik with my own hard earned money.

Technically.

I had actually saved up about 100,000 - 200,000 PHP, which my father had invested in stocks to the point that they'd multiplied to enough of a sum for me to purchase the car. So damn right it's mine. But technically since the purchase was made under my father's name, it's his.

Details, details.

Either way, Mik's an awesome 2012 Subaru XV which is sort of like the awesome matrimony between an Impreza and a Forester. He's a semi-automatic paddle shift all-wheel-drive monster on the road and may I say I love him to bits? He's also got a quaint little sunroof which doubles as a makeshift scoop. He also comes with a bluetooth operated phone and music system + usb/mp3/cd player. I sound like such a car junky, but really I'm not. I'm really just a biased fan of Subarus in general.

Heck, I don't even know what this baby's capable of? My bro says he has a monster engine, but I honestly can't even tell.

2012 Subaru XV 60L DOHC 16-Valve, Horizontally-Opposed, 4-Cylinder, 4-Stroke, Petrol Engine

I'm just kidding, do you see that engine!?!?!?! DO YOU SEE IT!?!?!? If you're interested, you can find out more about it here.

So the people I know IRL might be asking now: "Why aren't you driving Mik then?"

Well here's the deal.

I know how to drive.
And I have an awesome butt-kicking car.
But I don't have my licence.

Yehp, I went through the entire system backwards huh? Usually you learn how to drive on a crappy car first and THEN get a car. But I learned how to drive, then got my car, and THEN have yet to claim my licence.

I know. It sucks.

So one of my goals this sem break is to finally get my licence. It wouldn't be so hard if I could DRIVE myself to LTO and just get the licence there, but my schedule is very much subject to that of the people around me. That and my mom doesn't trust me enough to drive just yet.

So goal number 2 this break?

Getting that damned licence.

Wait for me Mik. Wait for me.

That is such a pretty colour for a car!


I just got my Learner's licence .... yeah, but have not driven at all. The car that my dad bought (mazda 3 but not in a pretty colour like yours!) was supposed to be for me but he drives it because I can't drive. XDDD

You should learn :)) it's pretty easy once you get the hang of it. Was the car stickshift or automatic? if it's a matic it might be easier to learn - sort of like bumpcars but your goal ISN'T to bump into anything ahaha.
