My only true accomplishment in the last months is that I've learned to spell 'carcharodontosaurus'

I BROKE MY TEACUP.

My beautiful handmade-somewhere-near-Nimbin white-with-purple-spots holds-the-whole-world-of-tea-within-it teamug baby! D: IT WAS BEAUTIFUL AND NOW IT'S LOST TO ME! LOST! I'm having to use a substitute cup and it feels all wrong. We're going to have a funeral service for it - because Alison is a crazy person - and so it's

Clearly you must learn the craft of pottery so you can construct a replacement!

I suspect my artistic skills would render this mug a... not mug-like in any way.

So you can now spell carcharodontosaurus, but how to pronounce it becomes a problem. Is it a car-char-odonto- saurus or a carch-aro etc. If your really interested in the doing dinosaurs as a possible career you could spend this year fixing up your maths, chemistry and physics etc. There are plenty of free classes going on the net also you could try and see if the polytech puts on adult education courses covering what you need. and then your local university must offer courses over the summer to get you up to speed.
Your local library should have all those subjects in the --maths for dummy's- books series.etc.
Something to work towards- job satisfaction with a good pay rate. anthropology not to your liking? Sageowl

It's car-car-oh-don-toe-saurus :) There are ways to improve my knowledge in those areas but I HATE maths/physics/etc. I don't mind chemistry so much even though I don't understand it, I still found it sort of enjoyable even when it hurt my brain. But as for all the others? HORRIBLE. They make me want to cry.

Anthropology is always a thing of interest, but the problem with that along with the schooling and small call for it, is that I'd only have interest in doing such a thing in Egypt or the Middle East. And there's already more people wanting to do those sorts of things than there are positions open for it.
