[HPFGU-OTChatter] accents and getting older

[K G]

Sam:

       I dropped out of Oxford after a year, (not reading English.)  Perhaps I should have adjusted my accent. (South London sloppy version of drawling. Tonks in my imagination even if not in Stephen Fry's.)

Nah, I wasn't working hard enough. Lucky escape really. If I'd stuck it out I wouldn't have met hermionesdad:) 

Okay, when I was eighteen I thought that I was going to be a biochemist and never have kids, at least, not for a long, long time. Men were certainly never to influence my life except as an occasional hobby.

I'm now a wife, mother of two and part time nurse. I'm really rather happy with it too, even if I have turned into my mother. How have other folks lives turned out compared to their plans?

Well, I was going to be a Marine Biologist and develop a shark repelent that was going to keep beaches safe.  Ended up dropping out of college and marrying my high school sweetheart.  10 years and 2 kids later got a divorce and went back to college.  Became that Marine Biologist and had another kid besides (affair with a younger man).  Now both older kids are gone with only the younger still at home (though the middle on comes home from college on breaks) and am a professional dog trainer and breeder and working on becoming a handler.
