A Tough War

After I entered my last semester in High School, I made a promise with my self that I should drive car to school by myself!!

And I DID IT!!!

At first my mom only agree with it if I go to school every Saturday. So On 5 January 2013 was my first time went to school by myself.

Q: What do you think? 
A: I think I’m really cool. I felt like I’m a professional car racer. *I swear I didn’t exceed speed limit*

I believed while I was driving, my face was like a BOSS… Everyone barely forget their first time, especially in experiencing something that will break trough our limit, confidence, ability, etc.
Because its needs a lot of courage to do it.  Usually we will be satisfied by the result.

That’s why after I safely drove my car to school and soundly returned home, I gained more confident. Thus I asked my mom to let me driving car everyday to school by myself. My mom rejected it. She said because it was on Saturday there’s no traffic jam so she let me go.

But I think it’s all bullshit!

Hey Jakarta Citizen! Is there a day without traffic jam??

In 24 hours I annoyed her by saying: “I want to drive car to school!!” as many time...

One hour before 7 January 2013, she said: “Ask your Dad…”

My Dad is the one who was taught me driving. Logically I should gain my permission from my father to drive car. But, I already know the answered before I asked. He definitely will answer: “Of course you should! That’s the reason I teach you driving, so I don’t need to drive you to school and I can sleep longer.”

Q: If your Dad is okay with it, why you bothered yourself to ask your Mom?

A: It’s my family’s rule. We should get both parents agreement.

Q: Then you should be happy when your mom said: “Ask your Dad…”

A: Dude, do you ever-heard “Tossing Matter”? It’s a common sense when one of your parent ask you to ask your mom/dad, then when you do, you will being ask again to ask your mom/dad.

As the example this is my Dad’s answered: “Ask your Mom, if your mom agreed with it then I’m fine with it…” A normal child when facing this kind of situation they will confuse, feel bothersome and give up.

GIVE UP?? NO WAY!!

I don’t want to lose that sensation while I’m driving.

As a stubborn kid, I take my own action. I make a declaration at living room, I said: “No matter what, starting for tomorrow I will drive car to school. The car key is already in my hand. My heart, my soul, my life are ready for it.”

Do you know what, my mom simply answered: “when you get to school just SMS me.”

THE END

I felt at those weekend I should have a long way war. the truth it's an unworthy war and ended it uncool way. Anyway, I gladly win the war. #proud
