In true New York style, I don’t know how to drive. People always think I'm joking when i tell them this. It seems crazy but it’s true. As a resident in a city with the least amount of parking and one of the best public transportation systems in the world, it was just completely unnecessary to learn. Also, there never seemed to be any time to study, take the test then driving lessons. I’m determined now, though, to at least get my permit by the end of the summer. It’s a lofty goal, I think. Okay, not really. Most people are able to do it in a summer. The problem is that I’m super lazy. Yes, I’m quite the human sloth. It’s been a pretty big deal that I’ve decided to get a gym membership and study for the G.R.E., which I’ll be taking August 22nd. I scheduled that date a while ago knowing that if I scheduled it, I would force myself to study.
Today I got a call from a friend, one who, like me, can’t drive. He told me, “By the way, we’re you need to do something with me. We need to go to the D.M.V. and take this test…” So, apparently I’m talking my permit test on August 7th. Now that it’s scheduled, I guess I’ll force myself to study. Wish me luck and drive safe; I may be on the road soon.

you'll be fine. By the way when we get back to Bryn Mawr you're welcome to use my car to learn on (my new old car that I got this semester and you haven't seen yet). It might be easier to learn in the 'burbs of BMC, city driving always made me nervous.
