LTO day

This morning, I went to LTO to get my liscence (my first) . . . we got there around 8:15 and we finished around 11:00. As always it was packed with people getting their renewal, student permits, car registration and driver's permit-by the way, my dad accompanied me-it was packed because of the lack of space, you could barely breath.

When we arrived, we were instructed to be drugged tested. They got urine sample but I am not sure if they even tested my urine or the urine of the others. I got shocked when I was told it costs 250php (so expensive for urine drug testing). I remembered that when I was in 3rd year high school (which was 2 years ago) that I only payed 90php for the same urine drug testing. It was then a mandatory random drug testing.

Hmm. . . so many fixers surrounding the area (my first observation of the people there). Next stop, madical examination. It costs 50php when all you got to do is the eye testing, height and weight. So much for medical exam. After that I lost track of the windows that we have to go to. . . (sighs). . .

I took a written test. My dad said I got 31 out of 40. The examiner told him that I almost failed. What?? What percent is the passing? The same examiner asked me if we brought a car and if it is manual or automatic. Luckily, we brought the Mitsubishi Lancer (manual) of my dad. I don't think I can drive a jeepney. He asked me to just circle the island of infront of the LTO. He wasn't even in the car with me when I was driving. He asked me to test drive, but I didin't hear him asked the others to drive. Is it because I am a girl so he doubts that I can drrive?? By the way, almost all that took the exam are male. (Did I see any female? I forgot already. . . But I don't think so) I hate discriminations!!!
