tuesday: high risk vehicle pullover

It rained most the day today for testing and I forgot my camera.  I passed the test fine and felt pretty good about it. 

The highlight of the day for me was at the end of the day. One of the instructors I have a lot of respect for came up and talked to me. He said something along the lines of  "be more confident in the knowledge you know." He also wished me good luck in the field and mentioned a few other things to motivate me. It meant a lot when he talked to me, he is the type of person you want to impress. He saw my weakness and straight up told me to work on it. He did it in a way where it pushed my desire. I know I am confident, but there is a fear I have of whether or not I am right. I want to be right and I want to be good in what I do. I had an opportunity to do practice scenarios with this guy yesterday. I loved his style of teaching. He used to work in Huntington and he had a lot of personality traits that reminded me of some other people I admire most. He is an inspirational person and I will probably never forget the day he took me aside and said "good luck."
