I'm going to talk about one of my most remarkable experiences. If my memory serves me well, taking the driving test is the one. When I took the risk, I knew something bad might happen, but it had a positive result. Driving, or arriving, in Vietnam is very cheap. Many of my friends mocked my ability to pass the driving test, and they linked it to my confidence. I was the only one who believed in myself. I remember wearing my favorite clothes to the exam to boost my confidence. I had to take the bus, and that was the first time in my life that I used public transport. I almost missed the exam because I didn't know how to get there. Luckily, I arrived on time. Because of my strong memory, I was confident in my studies. I was a little disappointed with my practice. Every time I practiced, I did poorly on the driving test. But thankfully, during the actual exam, I forgot about my feelings and anxieties. I focused on the task at hand and passed the test. It was a huge relief, and I was so proud of myself for taking the risk and believing in myself.
