Christ, these are pretty hard!! Probably getting a job at the Molineux, that meant so much to me

I honestly don't know! Maybe better results in my 2nd year exams, specifically in my Sex and Gender module!!

15. What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you?

I was 20 this year, and had a fab birthday. On the night of my birthday, i had a lovely meal out and night up town in Wolves with a selection of home friends, uni friends, and the guy i was kinda seeing. The next day i had a family BBQ with my close family in our garden. It was a fantastic weekend :-)

Learning to drive really quickly so that i could be out and about now, doing my turn with lifts, and whizzing around the country of my own accord!

I don't know, and don't wish to get involved!

Haha, that's a trick!! It wasn't the first time i'd met her, obviously, but getting to know Helena properly. Also Rich, Emma's lovely boyfriend. At uni, Chris and Siggy. In terms of interested males… the very very very sexy man i met at school disco last academic year, and 'Italian Man' on holiday!! :-) Sorry if i've left anyone major out, i can't think!!

20. Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2005

Life is for living, 'just do it', enjoy yourself and make the most of what you've got. There are so many possibilities out there… do what you want and be happy.
