more about driving...

so i've been driving for about a week now, and i have to say, i feel like a brat, but public transportation is just so ICK now. driving is way, way better. driving in queens + suburbs, however, is much different from driving in brooklyn + the city. since living in queens and all that, i've become a much bigger fan of the outer borough. the roads are nice, the neighborhoods safe (at least in little neck), and the people are nicer too! i don't have to worry about potholes (SO FREAKING MANY IN BROOKLYN) or alternate side of the street parking!

and get this...so i'm HORRIBLE at parallel parking. God's been really gracious though...so far, i haven't been in a situation where i've had to fit my car into a tight spot. everything i've needed to park in comes with an extra big spot so that parking becomes very easy :D or maybe it's just cos i have a little car. either way, it's been awesome.

i also wanted to say...there are definitely a bunch of things you notice only when you start driving. i'm sure there's more than the ones i'm gonna list below, but i figured i'd start a running list:
1) there are so many fire hydrants...is this really necessary???
2) taxis SUCK. they stop anywhere and everywhere and cut into your lane all the time
3) people who walk slow are stinkers. they stop traffic. walk a little faster! or better yet...DRIVE :D
4) potholes really hurt. i cringe every time i drive over one. the city department of whatever is in charge of roads should really get on that.

haha okay that's all. lastly, everyone's getting a blogger, yay!! haha i don't feel like i was one of the first to get blogger, but now i've had one for a little more than 6 months. it's starting to get even more popular, so yay!

enjoy the nice weather homefries :D
