I was a kind of artist but dont think i can say it on here lol, duno about mathmatician tho!
i did get a distinction in art and design (showing off now) when i did it at college but there wernt many realistic prospects in that field for me, it was just to pass some time til i reach 18 and i could work as a careworker, ive done a bit of everything since i left school early-it failed me big time, but healthcare has always been interesting to me. i loved working with the elderly clients i had but i wanted something a bit more challenging skills-wise and to show my boys they can be anything even from being rock bottom, so thats why ive decide to i want to train to work alongside a pharmacist! :-))

It's great when we can look back and see how much better people we've become isn't it.
I got in with a bad crowd and didn't do as well at school as I should have. My own fault but hindsight is a marvellous thing.
The boys will be so proud of their mummy x

thanks scottish, i wouldnt have been so dissapointed if it was my own fault and getting in with the wrong crowd but i didnt i got bullied by almost everyone because i dressed differently and listened to my own choice of music rather than what everyone else followed. the school was absolutly useless but then again what could they do against the whole school? so i decided to do things my own way, i found a great group of friends that appreciated me -that was a pretty wild time but they do say 'the higher you get the harder you fall' and i did but ive learned a lot about life in the process and to be honest without those experiences i dont think id be as grateful for what ive got as what i am! :-)

Wise words Leigh, I've had an ahem, interesting life too, also decided to choose my own path instead of following the crowd :) now a boring married mum, but got a job and home I love x
