I’ve been thinking about it all week. I know I haven’t got the facility for essay construction. I just let myself go and get excited. I feel more emotionally than I do mentally.

"Because of my life I’ve been self-sufficient. It’s not a very nice characteristic. It means I don’t care enough【18】people. I can’t say I find comfort in【19】I’m learning, so I’ll be interested to see【20】there’s a life ahead."
