I don't drive, so on the occasions where I cannot get public transport like trains or buses home, I call my mother to come pick me up, since I live with her and my siblings. Over Christ...

I know I tend to drag things on a bit, so I'm gonna try to keep it brief. I am posting on this website for the first time and reading your stories is like reading from my memories. I was classed as 'gifted' in school, but I was never challenged enough. I constantly found myself with nothing to do, a...
