On Sunday as my grandma got out of the car after I had driven her home, she complained that I drive too fast. Well, maybe I am becoming a bit of a speed demoness. I wasn’t always like that–I used to be quite a timid driver when I first started driving. But as the years have gone by, I’ve become more aggressive and bolder in my driving.
I was making small talk with someone who gave me a lift home the other day and she said that she doesn’t enjoy driving even though it’s something she does every day because of her job nature (she’s in sales). This young lady says she thinks driving is a very male thing. She went, “It’s just very man you know.” But she goes on to say that she drives also because she wants to prove to the men that women can drive.
Personally I enjoy driving and I like being behind the wheel and just cruising with my favourite music playing and me singing along to it. I’ve never really thought about it being a male/female thing. I mean, yeah, I know how there’s the thing about women not being to park and all, but I’ve never given much thought to it.
I just like to zip myself from place to place. Hopefully I’ll be able to have a car of my own one day, and it’ll definitely be a convertible SUV! Or some cabriolet would be cool too! My dream is to drive one of these along the Great Ocean Road with the top open with my favourite music playing to the accompaniment of the sounds of the ocean. I shall continue to dream on……
