If I had applied myself more, I might have gotten straight A's, I was certainly clever enough.

So in order to make your way in the world, you have to learn other languages and fortunately I have a knack for them.

I guess you mentioned this for my aging Spin Cycle post! I didn't do very well in my German class.

Fine by me, not so fine according to my parents or my teachers. <br /><br />Life turned out more of a school than school ever was, but I did learn plenty there. Most of which I have forgotten long ago! Although not my love for English literature.

Sounds as if you got yourself distracted somewhere in that fourth year but it is also clear you have talent with language. That is a definite plus!!<br /><br />Graduation is as graduation does - life is the REAL school...
