I attempted Maths at AS
but was unwilling to work. I instead chose an easier subject- easier to me, and not easy really in the slightest. I don't know if I'd have been better off sticking with Maths and working hard, but that's the way things were.

Aspects of poetry are quite mathematical, such as scansion- there are certain rules, words that can't be used in places, and definite patterns. Very relaxing to do, as well, provided it's not in an exam situation :/

Maybe I'm strange but
I don't really like poetry. I like poets, and I like some poetry, but it's not something I'd choose to read. And if I ever meet Carol Ann Duffy I shall have to be restrained

I've met her.
I don't read modern poetry- my favourite English poet is probably Hilaire Belloc. But that's because I don't really read for pleasure any more. I'v got my favourite book down with me at the moment but I can't bring myself to read. Instead I'm pressing F5 on a dead messageboard :(

well talk to me
it's been a shit evening, thanks to a combination of factors.

You met Carol Ann Duffy and managed not to smack her?
