Hello people :)

Not sure if this has been done on here before, sorry if anyone has to repeat themselves but i thought it would be a good idea to say a bit about yourself, see if anyone has anything in common etc...

I want to try and make some friends for when i move out in August.

So...

Im Jess, 24, from the UK. I will be teaching English when i move, never been to Indo before and it will be my first teaching post so im nervous and excited!

I did 2 years of a 4 year degree in Fine Art, English Language and Teaching, i put the course to rest to travel. I will go back to it when the time is right.

I am a ballet dancer and a veggie. I like to explore and like converstaions that keep me listening. I could sit and listen to stories for hours and cartoons cheer me up!

Most of all i get on with every type of person and love to laugh.

Nice to 'meet' you all! xx

Hi, my name's Marmalade and I'm a talkoholic. From N. Ireland, via England and the mists of Hades where there be beasties, I am not great at spotting subtle signs of being ignored, like people putting their finger in their ears and shouting GO AWAY. Apart from that, I am an English teacher with a reasonably reputable institute and I like sending messages to people I am unlikely to ever meet. I am neither a ballet dancer or a vegetarian. I was in fact, briefly an Irish dancer and an ex-librarian. Close, huh?

Is it ok to talk absolute twaddle on this forum?
