week 4 and still here

Lots of new and challenging subjects to contend with but I'm surprising myself and doing not to bad.
Ive had a bit of a problem with the poetry in English lit. but the more I thought about the poem the more I came to understand it. Still not my strong point though.
I am enjoying maths because I'm not scared of it, unlike when I was at school.
History is great, mainly because Ive always had an interest in all aspects of the subject.
Spanish is still a strange language pero I think I'm getting the hang of it.
I try to study at least 3 hours a day on all the subjects but with work this can sometimes be a struggle.
I always do the homework on the day it is given.
I have learned more in 4 weeks at college than 4 years at high school.

English lit. can be a bit of a chore, mainly because the teacher has so much passion for the subject and don't. Saying that she hay made me think in a way I haven't before, so that was interesting.

O youv´e no idea how much I´m looking forward to learning about romantic poetry, it´s going to be so usefull to me in Wester Hailes.
I learnt a bit in Spanish to day and I think I might be understood in a few years time but its good fun.

Hi to anyone who knows me.
who would have thought it but yes I'm now a collage boy.
After 30 years away from school I'm now a full time student studying Spanish, history, English and maths with the view to going to university next year.
