College and School

I've been at college two years now studying IT. This year is my third year at college (level 3) and i'm doing an A/S level in Sociology, which i'm enjoying throughly, it's a nice change form technology all the time. College is probably my second home, as i'm always here hehe. I'm loving my time here, it has helped me in so many ways. I don't think that i'd be anything like i am now without going to college. I'd probably be some lowlife tramp drinking whisky behind the bus station, shouting foul language at people that passed by but now i feel like i'm actually getting somewhere with my life. I didn't enjoy school and i left early because of the sh**s that bullied me. I'm not going to just sit here and blame it all on them because in some ways it was my fault. If i'd have been tougher they'd have backed off.

What hurts the most though is not being there long enough to do any of my GCSE's, the one thing that people take for granted. If i'd have had my GCSE's i don't think that i'd be here, i'd have probably gone to university already but you know what.....

I am proud of who and what i am! Besides who wants to follow the croud. The boredom would kill me i think. As i said before i don't take crap anymore, not from anybody. If i have something to say i'm going to say it. So its not like bullying is going to stop me from achieving at college.

I try not to dwell on things, and i believe that i've moved on from all that.

I'm not worried to be honest, i know what i'm doing, i'm a smart lad i'll find my way eventually. I got the best mark in the class last year (level 2), distinction* overall, which i would say, so far, is my best achievement.

I'm looking to better myself though this year as it's my semi-final year at college and i intend to do it!!

Hi i'm Darren, if you're smart enough to read about me then well done. I'm living in Wakefield Area and I'm studying at college.

I'm a good hearted kind of guy, who is often misunderstood by people and judged based on how they see me. Which is a bit of a fu**ing liberty really. Over the next few years i'm going to be as explicit as possible about me, my life and how i see the world. I don't belive in sugar coating the world! So deal with it lol.

I'm told by my tutors that i'm a well rounded person, with a good head on my shoulders......I can't say i disagree really. I'm not up my own a** or anything but i just like who i am.

See you soon...toodles
