t 16 I was at the Sacred Heart I was a mixture of outgoing and really shy. I liked to party, but I hid behind my more outgoing friends. I don’t think I was academic. I was in the top class but nearer the bottom than the top. I wanted to leave, it was stifling. The head nun was terrifying. She was a monster. But you could also have a kind of fun that you can only have in a confined environment like that. If you’re a bit naughty in a convent school, that has its own kind of excitement. I was both rebellious and terrified. I was constantly getting caught just because I’m an idiot, you know? Sometimes I did my best to conform, but quite often, sort of by accident, I ended up breaking the rules. So yes, I was looking forward to leaving for sure.
