I quite clearly had no fucking clue what I wanted to do with my life. I still don't. I can tell you how to make a dog salivate by ringing a bell though.

Oh yeah - I learned that in a Religious and Moral Education class once. I've always found that concept quite fascinating...

(It was Christy's uncle that taught that class)

I went to Korova once, it was fine. I went to Moshulu once, it was fine. That's fine as in 'ok' rather than fine as in 'that's a damn fine piece of cake'.

I've got foreign qualifications:

Physics - final year dropout.

I was crap at maths, but in my defence I had Isla Traquair off of the new's mother as a maths teacher and the old cow would tell you to "wait" if you needed help with an equation or something, then shouted at you the following week because you hadn't figured it out on your own. I heard she was signed off of work because everyone kept telling her how much they wanted to do her daughter and now she's no longer at Alford.

I also got viral tonsilittis about 12 times during my highers, I just have a really crap immune system and I'd be run down for ages after each bout. I would have had an HND in social sciences but I was ill with glandular fever and post viral fatigue for 10 months and my shit of a tutor kept "forgetting" to post me work to do at home. (Yeah the fucker didn't tell me he had taken me off of the course, I ended up travelling into college to pick up work and he hadn't anything prepared, even though he'd promised, and as a result I ended up in hospital the next day with swollen glands in my stomach).:swearing:

I moan like fuck but I'm actually a nice, cheery person most of the time hahahaha I just get irritated easily by people who don't do their jobs properly i.e. my maths teacher for being a bint and the course co-ordinator for pissing me about. I'm 22 and in 2nd year at uni, I should be in 4th year by now if I hadn't been ill and not given work home.

But ooooh well. I wish I had taken higher art now, my art teacher slagged off one of my projects in a poem he wrote in my leaving book, calling it my "weird cloud-wire-clay thing"

Moved up in the world now. Last seen anchoring Channel 5's teatime news while Natasha Kaplinsky was on maternity leave I think.

She was in my mate's class at Westhill Academy and was married to Neil McIntosh, of the plant hire company.

It's amazing what you find out when you work in that place but not for them.

Also did a scotvec in photography, cad and design. Sat Higher maths over two years, after prelims for the higher, my teacher said if it was up to her i wouldn't have been doing higher maths. I got a unconditional entry to college just after so really didn't give a fuck about the crabbit bitch and what she thought.
