Money, you either have it or you don't....some are born into the life of luxury, others fight their way and make their fortune...some just always struggle. I am comfortable, I am thinking of buying a house, but the market is difficult to get into right now and my deposit isn't big enough.

What astounds me is this, where i live a lot of people my age drink all day, smoke weed and never have any drive....I talk to some of these and find I can sit with them for 2 hours and barely say a word...I got called a snob jokingly by someone, all because I said I like my daughter to get her clothes from next (my mum got me into this shop) and not Primark. Also because I've hired a hummer limo for her prom in 2 weeks, they said i was spoiling her.....so what? She is good, got level 5 in her SAT's and does her chores everyday. I like the finer things in life, and will do whatever it takes to get them, I don't like second best.

I like books, writing and travelling to places, I guess i'm just different from the council estate folk....I want something better for me and my family, I want to be someone.

On a lighter note, my birth certificate came, so i can now apply to the student loans to help pay for my course, i need it to prove I am from the uk...the adoption certificate proves i am me....they don't ask for much do they! The forms are like a massive book....
