TMA01

Visible to anyone in the world

Just a few more tweaks and I hope to submit a day or two before the cut of date.  I have enjoyed this first TMA, it was tough going at first, I'm one of those types that has it in my head but getting it down on paper and even trying to describe what's in my head verbally can be a challenge. Don't get me wrong, if I feel comfortable, I love to talk, thing is, you never know if your being judged, well, we're all judging to a degree, no pun intended, is there even a pun there? The thing is, I'm good on paper, so to speak, or should that be so to type, I type therefore I am, indeed. oh dear, this could be the first and last blogging I ever do, I'm not entirely sure in fact of the facts of what it is I'm doing here or what blogging is for that matter.

school was a torment for me, I loved it up until secondary school, a quick humiliation from Mr Lewis my combined science teacher in the first few weeks of the 1st year, then it was down hill all the way until I finally bunked off the last 2 years more or less, leaving with 4 or 5 CSE's, that was back in the 80's, almost got an O level. Yep, almost, by then I was so fearful of failure that I purposely missed my Art O level, I loved art, wasn't too bad at it, hence being put forward for the O level, but the fear of failure coupled with not feeling I was good enough, just overwhelmed me, so I didn't turn up. 

31 years later, I almost feel comfortable in my own skin, who knows where it might lead.
