I have a younger brother and I couldn't live with him! I think siblings always fight somehow. I went on a road trip with him to Norway once and at one point we didn't speak for three days HAHA
Yep, I taught history at secondary school then quit because I couldn't bear the lack of discipline and the amount of violence/drugs in the schools in my hometown :/ Awful.
I did three languages at school and the rest I picked up from friends or visiting places. My sister-in-law is Chinese and doesn't speak much English so I had to learn Mandarin!! Latin has actually been the most useful language because I can work out Spanish and Italian from it, so really I cheat with those languages. I've never tried Polish. Does it have very complicated grammar rules?
So it's mainly exams for you? I think my undergrad was 20% essays, 20% dissertation and 60% final exams. Which I guess was pretty fair since some people are bad with cramming for exams so the other marks would balance it out, IDK.
The bat-infested cave had a Bronze Age burial in it but there wasn't very much that was exciting in there. Just lots of bat poo LOL
