california

i guess this means that my move out west is now official! i'm not gonna lie, it was a little bit strange taking the illinois plates off my car yesterday...but at least i won't be driving on expired out-of-state plates any longer. and...as if i wasn't already certain about it, it's been confirmed that the department of motor vehicles is one of my least favorite places to spend any amount of my time. to make matters worse, i had to return again this morning to retake the written test because i failed it the first time. whoops!
