Well?

So I got my license today, but I have to wonder when I will actually get to use it. My brother has the car half the time, and the other half I am either in school or my mom needs it. And Im not allowed to drive in the dark yet. So, where is this newfound freedom I've been hearing so much about for the last sixteen years? Its like giving a shiny new toy to a child then immediately taking it away incase they break it. Have I not proven that I am responsible enough to deserve this privilege? What have I done that has given evidence to the contrary? Please, help me. Im at a loss here. Where did I go wrong? Why cant I take the car four blocks for a jaunt to the friendly neighborhood market? So what if its dark? Its not like I haven't driven in the dark before. In fact, its required to get your license. Maybe I regressed a year instead of moving forward. I don't know. All I know is that I feel severely gipped.
