Life gets so different after school, everything changes!!

Exactly, so basing judgements on peoples lives because they live in a council house certainly isn't the way to do it.
I was refering to being a single mum of 3 children at 21.
And I personally would hate living on a council estate.
Each to their own though.

Things happen. Going around saying 'my life is better than yours' is very gay tbh.

I would hate to live on a council estate in swindon as they are really bad, but some of the ones in wales are quite nice
feel sorry for her having to deal with so much at 21, but then it was her choice!

yes but admit that it is nice to see you better off than the ones that bragged at school about what they have/will have

I was happier when I was a bum with no home and sleeping in the back of my R5 tbh. Chilling out all day, bumming around in the sun. Ace

If you'd told anyone at my school back in the day including all the teachers that I was going to join the Police they'd have laughed in your face. Facebook is great for this because people you haven't seen for 6 or 7 years just pop up one day and you can find out what loads more people are doing now.

So I do feel sorry for her.
Neither would i, but i dont feel sorry for her? Why does she keep having to open her legs?

I dont speak to anyone from school in my day to day life. the closest i come to seeing/speaking to them is the fact that they are on my friends list on my MySpace....and even then i dont talk to them.
I got bullied at school quite alot and this is the reason why i want nothing to do with them. Its funny how the tables turn...most of the ones who bullied me are on the dole or have nothing at all.
It's funny when i see them out, they're quick to say stuff like "Hi Aaron, hows things?"...my response is "perfect thanks"

I think its quite funny as i knew that most of them would turn out the way they did. Saying that though you do get a few ones that you wouldnt expect, like there was this lad who was one of the most brainiest in the school but 4 years down the line, he now works for asda as a trolley boy. lol.
