Finally!

“If at first you don’t succeed, try and try again.” I can truly relate to this adage now more than ever. After having failed my driving test twice, I finally made it the third time. After 3 long, agonizing weeks of waiting, I finally got out of the “pit” when I took the test (which also happened to be my last chance) on Monday. As a friend told me, victory is indeed so sweet. Well, I have only the Lord to thank for answering my prayers. I never would have done it without the prayers of family and friends and their words of encouragement. I’m just so thankful and relieved that it’s all over and I can finally put my skill to good use. So to all students who are going through the same fate that I had been through, just keep the faith and like me I’m sure you’ll emerge victorious. God bless!
