I AM AN IRISH BOY

This is the 7th week of my last subject (I hope) for Life Span. Yet we are still stuck in our project. I think it is wise to explain it here so that who ever visits my blog will response to it. And I DO need response from others.

But before that we have to come out with a scrapt book with this new identity:

IT'S A BOY

  • Ireland boy - Wexford, South Ireland : Lower middle working class
  • You are the 3rd & youngest boy. you have one older brother (6 yearsolder) & another older brother (4 years old)
  • You come from a very traditional catholic household
  • Your father works as a forklift operator in the coal mines
  • Your mother is a tired house wife
  • Your father drinks a lot of beer & spends much time in the pubs, but he is not an alchoholic
  • Your father is emotionally & verbally abusive to family members, sometimes physically abusive to children
  • All three boys are destined to work in mines with dad, but you develop a keen interest in ballet dancing
  • Between the ages of 3 & 8 you suffer gender identity disorder.
  • An empathetic school teacher realizes this and helps you through this without your parents finding out
  • as a young child you spend much time looking in the window at the neighborhood ballet school
  • Your father will not allow you to take lessons even though the teacher will take you for free
  • He doesn't believe boys should be dancing
  • At the age of 10 you begin studying privately with the ballet teacher behind your father's back
  • 3 years later your father finds out that you have taken these lessons, but slowly begins to accept this
  • when you are 16 you realize & accept the fact that you are HOMOSEXUAL & have your 1st sexually intimate relationship when you are 18
  • At the age of 18 you are accepted into, on scholarship, The London Royale Ballet Academy
  • You dance professionally (ballet) until you are 40. After which you return to South Ireland & teach in the ballet school where you were 1st trained
  • your parents never come to know that you are HOMOSEXUAL
  • You never have an exclusive relationship, but several lovers throughout your life
  • You live out a happy & unproductive second half of your adult life
Wow what a precise & long explanation of my new identity kan?This assignment really makes my head turns up side down & pushes my commitment to the limit. Thus, to the viewers of my blog, if u have any info or suggestion I REALLY APPRECIATE it & NEED it. Please help me...

salam CD-ROM,

Irish ni memang terkenal dengan sikap keras hati ...itu sebab depa minta betul game rugby. One of the most popular Irishman adalah Roy Keane ..dulu bekas kapten Manchester United. CD boleh cari biography dia ...sebab he represents the true irish ...from dia punya bio CD leh dapat feel cam mana org-org Irush ni ...
