dudes its just a drivers test, u can take it again, alot of people dont; make it on the first time, but just study up, maybe even take some lessons or something, and take it again and pass

no, i failed the first time and im from jersey!
think on that for a minute.

anyway, it really is a depressing thing...but i do terribly under pressure, many people do. perhaps it was that, coupled with all the things that were making you have a bad day. when you're young driving seems like such a big deal, and failing that test seems so final and dooming. but really, no one cares or judges you based on that. dont beat yourself up over it.

Because I'm a piece of fvckin' sh!t who can't do a goddamned thing right. Today was such a horrible day. My favorite arcade closed down as well as my favorite place to buy games. My cold is annoying the hell out of me and I feel emotionally empty. All self-confidence and self-esteem is gone once again. I'm contemplating suicide and I don't care to call my psychologist.

I'm so fvcking tired of my life that I'll take any escape. I want to execute myself more than anything right now. I've got nothing to live for.


Except taking the fvcking test again. Try taking it at a different DMV branch - maybe you're just trying the nazi branch and/or the one with the fvcked up road course. And if you use your own vehicle for the test in your state - try to find somthing small. And I mean exceedingly small. Like European sub-mini sized.

And remember - escape is for weenies. I'll carve that on your headstone.

Or The Arc. Seriously, donate some of your time at one of these places and you will soon realize that you have it pretty good.

take some time, take the test again, it's not the end of the world. try to get a time when there'll be little or no traffic, and find the dmv most out in the middle of nowhere, so it's just you and the road, no idiots to deal with....

what did you fail on? points?
you mentioned a cold, that slows down your reflexes and your overall awareness/alertness to things...that plays a HUGE roll, i hate driving sick good luck next time!
