The DL deal
Well, I am kinda disappointed. I was expecting to have my driver's license yesterday but I didn't get it. It was raining and it's against the OMV policy to conduct road tests during bad weather.
I woke up so early yesterday (with a lil hours of sleep) to be at the OMV on it's first office hours that I could take the written exam as well as the road test in the morning while the heavy downpour is at the other side of the county. I've waited for my turn only to be told that I got to undergo a 6-hour-class relating to driving per OMV policy (for first time applicants) before I could take the tests. From then on, my day was ruined. Sitting in that room for 6 hours is not a joke. There was a lot in my mind - leaving my toddler for the whole day, catching up OMV's office hours and exams stress.
So I did take the 6-hour-class that ended at 2:30 in the afternoon. I enjoyed the class, though. Headed to the OMV after a long period of sitting. Waited for my number to be called with butterflies in tummy. Finally, number 50 was called. Talked to an unapproachable personnel. Papers were accepted and was allowed to take the written test. Fifteen minutes later, the test was over. PASSED! Whew! that was tough.
Right when I was ready for road test, heavy downpour came! Road test is cancelled! Tsk! Great! Now I gotta go back again on Friday. Hopefully, there would be no hindrances. I am so ready to be on the road, to work and earn.

Comments
The DMV still does the road tests and there are also driving schools that offer such but with a corresponding payment of $25 or more.
