@Jesternario: My driving test was OK, but my first driving LESSON was awful.
My instructor was this horrible old woman with a name like Hagatha or Grizelda or something — some name a wicked witch might have, which was quite appropriate. She was constantly, incessantly critical, barking at me every time I made even the smallest mistake. Worse yet, it was like 90 degrees outside with no breeze, but she refused to let me turn on the air conditioner because — and I quote — she preferred to “breathe God’s air”.
When it was finally over and I pulled into my driveway, drenched in sweat, she grudgingly said to me “I suppose you’d like a compliment, huh? Fine…not bad, I GUESS.” Like I was forcing it out of her.
Needless to say, my mom was on the phone with the driving school within minutes after I told her how it went, and you’re damn sure I didn’t get the same bitch for my second lesson.
I remember when I went to take my drivers test. I was so nervous that because the teacher insisted on taking me out on the road in stead of going on the course that was RIGHT THERE that I made a lot of mistakes and she failed me. I had to wait an entire year just because my teacher was purposefully being a bitch.
Yep, Katy hitting the big 16. This will be good.

Oh wow! She is actually ten months older than I am! Cool!
@Freezer: Not so weird when you consider the title of this story arc. That’s the conclusion I jumped to as well.
Joel is a George Orwell fan?
@AstroCitizen Weird you jumped straight to that, but okay…
Dear God but I hope this doesn’t turn into a Katey-loses-her-virginity story.
Finally, a Katy story after so long! And this time it is her Sweet Sixteen!
Was this BEFORE Sweet 16 became a thing? Lol
