my bf has been teaching me how to drive. i tried learning a decade ago but it got cut short due to life and i never went back to it, as much as i wanted to. i was also incredibly broke at the time, so even the thought of buying a second hand car seemed too far fetched. things have changed and no longer in survival mode, so it's incredibly satisfying to be able to get back to abandoned things. learning a new skill obviously has its own perks but this one feels extra special. it's doing things to my brain i didn't expect. i think part of it is because i told myself i'll get to it one day and i'm now doing it. so i'm keeping that promise i made to myself. there's a few more basics that i never got to, like swimming or riding a bike. but i'm sure i'll get to them in due time.
