How I did it: I worked for a few years and finally made the decision to go back to college. I completed an access course which gave me the necessary qualifications to get straight into university. I considered many different ones throughout the UK. In the end I settled for my home town. I already had a part time job which would support me throughout. The course was tough esepcially while working. My motivation? Finally working in your dream job...… Read how I did it…
I want to have everything in place so people know exactly what I want. I don’t want anything religious. I don’t want cheesy songs. I don’t want crying. I want it to be a celebration of my life, this list and everything I have achieved!
I’d like to be cremated first, with again no religous overtone at all. My atheism MUST be mentioned! Then my ashes should be sprinkled out at sea, or in the forest. Or, over my Mum, which is what happened to my Dad’s ashes when the wind blew!
I visitied Kuala Lumpur and stayed in a hotel not far from the Petronas twin towers. The city is quite small and there isn’t too much to do. Helicopters kept flying over the spray the pollution! So, I had a good time but I probably wouldn’t go back.
