Personally, I hate driving. Just hate it. Took driver’s ed and the driving lessons, and the guy who was teaching me just kept shouting and shouting, I was totally stressed out, and I would be happy to never drive again.

Unfortunatly, I’ve got just about every adult I know on my tail about it. I’m supposed to drive my siblings to school next year, etc. etc. etc., so I have to do this.

And I DO want to get my permit before my younger sister, who’s only a year younger and already begging for driving lessons. But that’s about my only motivation, and it’s not very much.

Playing the piano was one of the smartest things I did. I’ve been doing it since third grade, and I’ll be doing it for the rest of my life, to be sure. It’s always a challenge, and it’s so relaxing and a MUCH better outlet for anger than, say, knocking somebody over the head. :D Even if your goal isn’t to play the piano, but some other instrument, the piano is an excellent way to learn how to read music (easier than learning on a guitar, for example). I highly recommend it for everyone…there’s not an age limit on when you can start learning!

Definitely not impossible for me, but harder than before. That junior thesis in fourth quarter is going to be a killer; it’s time to buckle down a little harder than I’ve had to in the past few years.
