. . . should be in the dictionary right beside the word "Perseverance" because she obviously is a lady who will not stop trying to do something until she is successful. 

To keep going back over and over again for anything this many times would be far beyond me. Truly. I believe I would have just settled back and lamented my misfortune of not be able to pass the test. Not this little lady. She kept on trying until she met her goal. With "perseverance" like that, she ought to be a success at whatever she sets her mind to.

The story says she is a 'vegetable seller' so I am betting she's a very successful vegetable seller. This is one woman I would not want to argue with about anything cause she would eventually win.

OR - so you're comfortable with this woman on the road when you're out for a ride? :^)

She's my idol.

LOL...Long as she's driving in South Korea...not a problem for me.

I think I've seen her driving in the left lane on I-40 doing 45MPH.

funny Timbo!

Actually, I saw her riding my tail in traffic on NC-55... or was she stopped at the end of the entrance ramp merge to I-40 ?... I forget.

i don't feel so bad now.. it took me 2 trys for my permit and 3 tries for my DL

sorry.. i'm having one of those.. "i dont know how to spell" days again!!

I wonder what part of the test kept messing her up? Hopefully it wasn't a STOP SIGN!!!

bless her pea pickin' heart!

Took darling daughter 3 tries...first try she barely made it out of the parking lot...pulled out in front of another car. Second time went speeding down the road with the tester...he told her that if she had noticed she was speeding (40 in a 25!) and corrected herself, he would have passed her but she just kept on speeding. Third time seemed to be the charm. :)
