    I told my mum my mark...

    maybe next time you just say you’ve passed and leave it at that?
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Some people are never satisfied are they, don't bother what your mum said because we all think you did great.

    Hey, I just wish you had the belief in yourself that I have in you. Then the result wouldn’t be a surprise.

    I had to explain to her that 70% is a First and that I have been pretty poorly lately.

    When I got my A level results, I rang her...

    "I got A, B, C, D!!!"

    "Yeah? And? what else?"

    That’s pretty much the sort of response I would got from my folks back in the day, not that I really did much to be proud of.

    I think you are really really smart. Congratulations on your marks. I don't think I've ever gotten a first in my life.

    I'm studying until I have to leave for my appointment. Have to admit that I'm a little bit agitated today. Hopefully they've unstuck the bridge or we'll have to go through the city centre!!!
