sang in primary school. Singing in my life is very important. I also take opera

singing lessons every Wednesday. (He affirmed that he would not sing for us by any

means!)

5. Where are you from?

I am from Cornwall, the Southwest of england. I looked out the windows and I

could see cows and the whole countryside.

6. If you could, What would you tell your 15 year old self?

If i were 15 again, I would tell myself to just be happy as i am, to realise that some of

the things about school that are negative will go away and to just be happy as i am

and stand strong, smile and be yourself. I will also say that you will end up in a

wonderful school in the middle of Hackney, in London which is where I always

wanted to go.

7. How many languages can you speak?

I wish I could say more than one. I can speak a little bit of Spanish, 2 words in Portuguese, I can understand German and a little bit of french but I feel embarrassed when people ask about it.

8. What courses did you study at A levels?

The courses were English Literature, History and Biology. The thing that sticks in my mind is adenine, guanine, thymine and cytosine. (which is exactly what refuses to

stick in my mind as a biology student and also quotes as an English student)

9. If you could change something in the world what would it be?

I would remove all the discrimnation, which is such a big thing, it interferes with so much in young people's lives.

10. What is your favourite joke?

“Knock knock” “who’s there”  interrupting cow “moooove!” (both of us laughed very

much)
