My mum made me throw my leather duster out! ...to be fair it was literally falling apart! Had holes everywhere, because I'd worn it to death. Ah, my poor cow.
I would like to point out that I moved to Edinburgh because it was the first place I got a job after Sunderland ate my soul! Seriously. Never move to Sunderland. EVER. It is a tiny wee ned-filled town with delusions of grandeur. I was tricked there, I tell you! Reid Kerr said it was the only uni we could go to to get our degree in a year (they do a bridging course from the HND that allows you to go straight into third year), but they lied. They LIED! There were three other places and none of them were in fecking Sunderland.
So, yes, that means I have a degree. I got a BA in Drama. Which is good, except that it left me too broke to be an out of work actor and I ended up in Edinburgh.
Oh, how I've failed at life so far! ;) But I do have plans. Yes, plans I have...we'll just allow me my dreams that they will materialise one day.
As for Legal Aid...let me tell you that I now completely understand your decision to leave your Law degree. I mean, I got it before, but now? Well, after the last six months of spending each day wanting to poke my eyes out with a blunt pencil, I get it even more. Trust me when I say that a job change is in my (hopefully) very near future!
It's great that you have a flat (although, I agree, the mortgate must be scary!). I'd love my own space, but I like my current flatmate (if you ever want to know about TERRIFYING experiences with flatmates at any point, I can fill you in about the previous two sometime *shudders*), so it's not so bad.
What kind of dog do you have?
And, yeah, I wish I could say I was a physicist. I'd love that. I so intend to go back one day...you know, after I've made my millions in acting and writing books...yeah, again with the dreams. Meh, we all have them.
I like your LJ name btw. It sounds familiar, but I can't figure out why! I'm likely just going mad ;)
