Who Knew

Well.. I went for my driving license written exam today... was a piece of cake... it was at 2.30 and it was in Gampaha.. so I took the bike and left at around 1.15 had a very nice interesting ride there.. would taken around half an hour to get there I guess. It was an interesting ride.. made me think why I love riding a motorbike all over again.. Got there... had to wait outside for a bit.. used it to do a bit of revising.. then went in... you know I've never been a fan of government servants.. they sit there being paid by our taxes and then they put all their part and all.. maara pada ne.. but I was rather shocked today.. when I went into the examination hall this man who was one of the invigilators was very nice actually... he explained for us what to do and did in a very friendly manner.. the amusing part was when I asked for an English question paper... they actually asked me to write up a request on my answer sheet asking for an english paper and giving a reason why I want one... hahahaha... I guess it was to check if I really did know english because well they've updated the question papers, but apparently only the sinhala and tamil papers... nobody's updated the english one.. so yeah.. hahahaha.. lucky me.... cos I saw some of the sinhala papers.. they were a bit tough.. but the english paper was as my old mathematics teacher would say.. JUJUBEs... finished it in like 10 minutes and buggered off..

I think these papers are rigged so that no one will get 100 out of 100 or rather in this case 40 out of 40.. even in the english paper some of the last questions were a bit confusing and since its multiple choice so the answers were all a bit simillar and you had to use the best suited answer for the situation. One of these were If involved in a accident do u a) take the injured person immediately to the hospital by another vehicle. b) mark the accident area and then take the injured person to the hospital. c) do either of the quickest of the above. I was like meh? :S :S :S... hehehehe... so yeah but the rest of the paper was simple enough.. enjoyed the ride back and been enjoying October Road ever since.. =D....

All in all.. not a bad day.. having some friends over for lunch tomorrow should be interesting..
