It went some way to relieving the disappointment of earlier. I relished the prospect of living away from home, meeting new people, and advancing my education.Mum and Dad started taking me on shopping excursions, buying me everything I'd need to survive. Mum also provided a crash course on cookery, and I learned how to iron a shirt for. We took a break, I learned the girl was Penny, she was 24, also just out of college and she seemed real nice.
