University (of life)
Did you go to Uni? Were you the typical stoner with a Bob Marley poster and shite dreads? Did you decide to get a job instead?

Yeah I went to 'university'. It was an ex poly and all I deserved.
I was well turned out to look at, because I'd spent the previous year dealing and developed an expensive clothing habit, but I spent my entire degree completely out of my mind on drugs. My 2:2 is a shining testament to my prodigious intellect, lesser mortals would have gone mad/been thrown out/dropped out/failed to gain a qualification. It's a better mark than I deserved and I'm more than happy with it.

That said had I not bothered and gone to work instead I might have been more successful in life - but at that age there was no fucking way I was going to do anything other than get high all day.
