I'm not being arrogant, not at all, I'm not arrogant - I'm simply trying to paint a picture of myself, which is obviously helpful from all perspectives. And when I said I "deserve to be flying that Eurofighter", it was a broad claim, just how I feel more than what I think, if you see what I mean. And I was not claiming to be practically perfect either, I was simply saying I have the things they want (in my opinion). In the same light I'm not at all suited to being an accountant, a businessman or a mechanic amongst other things (building and fixing stuff drives me up the wall!). Different stuff for different people you know.
Only have to pass the EEG? Wow :o I'll have to look into that for sure. I *am* still on the medication, it has to be said, but with any luck I'll be off it within the next 15 months. The control this last year has been infinitely better than ever before, seems we have found the right stuff to fix the problem. My consultant thinks I'm kind of a success story in that regard.
Keeping my cards near my chest does indeed seem to be "the" key, as far as there may be any.
It's great that you're happy with + successful having your own business and such
something I could never do.
I'll just have to see what gives I guess, ultimately I'll probably end up being a paramedic but I really don't want to give up any time soon. I had a particularly powerful dream lastnight, it was quite odd but basically I went in a spacecraft with people I know (who in this dream were astronauts) and, looking out of the window, I was so happy I cried. It was so vivid that it seemed entirely real. I wasn't too happy when I woke up after that one with a day at college ahead of me I can tell you
They don't seem to give too much of a hoot, you're right. Hell, I even wrote a letter to Geoff Hoon once and I never got so much as a reply, not even from one of his minions.
I'm trying to make a plan, but it seems like a right drag when the only plans around involve stuff you don't want to do
