We had about 8 of them, out of a class of 300. They always asked lots of questions, they always did all the extra assignments, and they attended every single class without fail. At first, I thought they were crazy. But now that I'm going back to school, I look forward to being among their number. If only British-based education systems could circumvent the aimlessness of youth, -everyone- could be just as enthusiastic about learning. Great.. now -I- sound like a PSA. Anyways, while I'm there I'll keep my ears peeled for any opportunities, Bex. You never know what can crop up. PS. <Mr.T>Don't be a sucka!
