Liar Liar
[Error: unknown template qotd]
I've never, ever felt the need to do one of these before. But this one piqued my interest. Certainly a lot more than yesterday's drivel about Twilight and baseball *rolls eyes*
Here goes:
1). I don't think I knew what my real name was until I was about 8. My mum always used to call me Mabel or Maudy-Mae. My dad would call me Harry, or Herbert, or Jim. One of those names is Mr G's christian name. It took about two years after Mr G and I started dating for my dad to stop calling me by that name by mistake. It took a lot longer for me to stop responding every time my dad called Mr G's name.
2). I was bullied from the day that I started school until the day that I left. Sometimes violently, mostly just with cruel taunts or social ostracisation. When I reached sixth form, I was teased by kids of 12 and 13. I said nothing. It was only when I turned 30 that I realised it had been about a year since the last time someone jeered at me in the street.
3). When I was growing up, I wanted to be a doctor. Even though I loved science I wasn't all that good at maths and was advised to do something else instead. When I graduated, I still had the desire to work in the health service, and it was for that reason I chose my current career. If I couldn't care for patients individually, I would help to plan health services for populations instead.
So, which is truth and which is lie?
