Goal Accomplished - Drive a Stick

My mom came in town yesterday which allowed Derrick and I a perfect opportunity to not have Vivian in Derrick's beater car while he teaches me how to drive a manual. It went pretty well. Of course, as anyone knows who has learned how to drive a manual, the trickiest part is getting out of first gear. Surprisingly I only stalled twice and I managed to get up to 3rd gear. We even practiced going backwards. Thankfully, there are no hills in Houma. The trick now is for me to take the car out by myself. I got the hang of the basics but now I have to put it into practice. Wish me luck!
