I had the most wonderful present and it's one reason it has taken me so long to post a 
reply (thanks to the people who sent me Birthday Wishes).

The evening before my birthday, I found out I had been offered a place at the University 
of Melbourne to study for a Bachelor of Education, starting in March. This is something I 
so want to do - it will allow me to put my voluntary work with gifted kids, and maybe 
some of my work on bullying onto a much firmer basis, maybe even into a career. I am 
ecstatic. But I have been so busy - both with getting ready for this course, and because 
of all the bushfires here in Australia... I've barely had time to think until the last day or 
so.

I'm going to be a teacher. I just hope I can avoid being too Snapish (-8
