Bike license

My attempt to get myself the approval to learn civilian bike failed. I knew it would fail. Merely trying my luck, testing if there's really such a thing called miracle. Obviously it doesn't. LOL.

Perhaps I'll learn it secretly?

I just don understand why my parents don have the same thinking as me. Why don't they agree that riding a bike is much much more convenient and "logical"?

My view of "convenient" : Able to get myself to and fro camp easily. Able to obtain a bike license quickly. Its definitely faster than a car license. Furthermore, I've got the riding experience.

My dad's view of "convenient": Being able to get through a traffic jam ASAP.

DOTS DOTS DOTS!


My arguement for learning bike:
1) Its a waste after going through 1 month of bike course and not going for a civilian bike license isn't it?
2) Its the only affordable form of transport (lets just put public transport aside) for me at the current moment.
3) Can bring me to wherever i want. Can bring me to camp and even to uni next time. (A car can do the same, but you cant expect me to drive my dad's car to camp, park there for the whole day/week then drive back again ya?)
4) Even if a get myself a car license i'll just be driving the car for fun. Thats means happy then drive out go play play. My dad needs to use the car quite frequently. The only time I get to use the car is perhaps 2-4pm? and maybe 8-12midnight? (I'll still want a car license, its just that i'd like to take bike first.

My parents arguement:
1) Bike is very dangerous. I don deny it. Its a fact actually. BUT! Everything also has its own danger what. Driving a car will also get you into an accident. There's also news of cars/vans over turned and the drivers passed away ya?

2) Cars now are cheap. So can go learn and drive.
Correction: Cars are cheap-er now. Compared to bikes, they're still expensive. I can buy a 2nd hand bike at less than 2k,but not a car ya?


I want to ride a bike! And i want to own a bike!!! I know its not possible, but i still prefer to remain dreaming! =D

Should i learn to secretly? LOL.





Anyway, was listening to songs in my bunk last week, and came across James Blunt's You're Beautiful. Reminded me of someone. But... the last sentence of the song brings me back to reality. (But its time to face the truth... I will never be with you.)

Like I've said, I don't mind remaining in my dreams. =)
