yay
My parents sent me to-
“Eastbourne school of domestic economy!
To teach me to be the perfect woman & possibly the perfect house wife .
We had deportment, sewing, cookery on any every level.
I was still too young to audition for a London drama school.
However they still whilst at the finishing school, I had private drama lessons.
To let up my love of acting.
I seem to have in past chapter s not made school great , welll ... this was really not GREAT. The experience was horrible.
I often pretended to be going for auditions in London, just to get away.
I would catch the train to London Victoria, but get off at Gatwick & sunbathe on the roof .
Watching air New Zealand go was my best watch .
At some point, I have absolutely no idea what month .
I just got up one morning & left,
No explanation to the tutor s or head .
I couldn’t stand another day of smocking dresses & learning the fox trot.
I caught the train to Victoria, underground to Paddington & forward bound to Cheltenham.
My nerves did waver a bit as now although free how were my parents going to receive me ?
From Paddington to Swindon , I had no explanation, well the only one was , I hated & walked out.
That was going to be really really difficult to clarify.
I was scared, but it was worth it.
I hoped ❤️ The train stopped at Swindon ,
It was the perfect time to call , to give them an hour to change there minds on the level of screaming. The call to my mother was priceless.
She just almost jumped down the phone.
Hey. I was seventeen & I didn’t like it what the hell else was to explain.
Home! Home on the range , I was literally out of choice s now as , still to young to start Auditions.. I remember I had to go & get a job, I became back in the old Cheltenham fold , I was lucky, in the fact I was comfortable finically, but it came with a price.
The soirées evening s I was a young woman about to embark on a huge future in London.
As that’s how it worked, I had to be a something to make my parents keep there status , they didn’t think like that.
It was just the way they all played the one man up manship life
