Swallowing your pride...

I've just faced up to the fact that I won't be able to do my college course because all the other work I have on as well as the house move. I wanted to do it, really I did, but I was risking making myself ill and failing and therefore wasting the company's money.

I've asked for a deferment which means it won't cost any extra money for the online course though there may still be an issues for the exams which have been paid for. The online student portal was causing no end of stress too and don't need any more or I'll end up having a connery.

This will all make tomorrow's appraisal interesting.

Ever been forced to admit that you couldn't do what you said you could do?

I have been forced but I deny it.

Yes.

Doing physical theatre at uni and the shame of still not being able to do a forward roll or full head stand. My tutor told me not to keep trying because I clearly just couldn't but I was determined to shut him up and nearly ended up in A&E in the process.

Frequently.

The trick is to perfect the bullshit that comes next.

I still feel bad not finishing a storyboard I worked on for Gavin, I did two or 3 pages and had to stop because the homework for my teacher's college started getting heavy. It was a really fun project though. One of my favourite types of art is taking other people's writings and illustrating them. problem is it's usually very time consuming work.
So yea that one sticks out in my mind the most.

Keep saying I'll try to get to the Junk Males shoots - then let them down at the last minute.

So sorry Danny.

Often yes, but I have no pride to swallow.

I was working with a compulsive liar. And then something unbelievable happened to him.

What? Go on then.

A Belgian stole his bag in the park and swore at him enthusiatically.

That's not really germaine to the story.
