Well, I find it very interesting, but that's kinda obvious since that's what I study, hehe! I think it gives you the possibility to see everything from a different perspective. It gives you the tools to appreciate better the complexity of any phenomenon that takes place in a particular society. You learn that nothing is natural.
I lack of more vocabulary to talk about this, hope you understand what I mean!

what do you wanna study there?


Psychology, Sociology, Biology and communication studies A levels. All of that facinates me! After that I want to do a B-tech diploma (I think that's what it's called) in Music, Vehical maintainence and Public services.

I want to be a paramedic when I'm older if I can't form a band or become a rally driver haha
;)

you really want many things, dont ya?! ;)
thats good.


Of course! lol we've all got to have dreams :-D

In a realistic sense I'll probably go for the Paramedic role as I've wanted to be one since I was 7 lol but never say never!


since 7?! thats an age! quite cool if you know what you wanna be in future with such an young age.. cool cool..

well.. yep my dream is to become a popular photographer and have a band i love... ;)

Yep lol It changed from a Doctor when I decided I wanted a more 'front line' job and less paperwork lol but I've always wanted some sort of job in the medical field.

Wow photographer sounds great! As is the band lol. The only other person I know who can play an instrument is my piano tutor haha

What do you mean "only" sing? I'd love it if windows stayed intact when I sang lol.

Yeah I have piano lessons. I've been playing Piano and Keyboards for 9 years this year. Started playing Electric Guitar at Christmas and can just about play Violin. I can play quite a few Travis songs on my guitar, to my immense joy lol and I play anything and everything on my piano :-D

All of the places that I've enquired about cost a huge amount. I'm getting there with it, I just need to practice more lol. I've seen a few tricks on the internet that I may put into practice...

I LOVE self teaching myself guitar. I have one theory book and 5 Travis tab books which I use.

The only things I'm not self taught in is my piano, first aid and dancing. Everything else, including my GCSEs, I have taught myself.

The joys of Home Education lol

Anyways, It's been nice chatting to you both but I desperately need sleep... Staying up until goodness knows when reading Tolkien is not the best thing in the world when you're already tired lol.

Speak to you soon XXX

Wow,learning to play the violin by yourself must be really hard!
I've been taking lessons for 3 years now. I'm left handed, which makes it even harder. My playing is still quite bad, but acceptable for a sympathetic human ear I guess.

Edit: Nice talking to you too, sleep tight!
