I have more recommendations but the other people here have supplied enough. |

| I wouldn't call myself top of the class due to self-disgust but I am above average and therefore mediocre.

| Yup, always have. Though not with authority figures, particularly those who used it to harm my routine ): When I was younger I craved a mature friend as I had 1 friend and he was immature, I did not succeed in keeping one but now I have me (: although I am not mature. |
