9. Perfect Parallel Parking
You know the feeling. You are trying to find a parking spot and all that’s left is a parallel parking spot right on downtown main street. Beads of sweat start forming on your forehead as you see the cars backing up behind you in the rear view mirror.
Your brain tells you that the sidewalk is full of people staring. You begin to imagine people with their cellphones out taking video of the dummy that’s doing the world’s worst parallel parking job. You are certain you will be the next viral YouTube sensation.
The impossible happens! You suddenly find yourself parked perfectly between two cars! You just parallel parked your car like you have been doing it for years. The anxious feeling in the pit of your stomach has melted away. You are feeling like you just climbed Mount Everest! You exit your car with your head held high, cheesy smile on your face. You feel like taking a bow but decide that might be a little much.
