Free language courses. So...
German or Russian? Or Arabic? Or two of them? Or all of them (probably not)? Maybe Chinese? French would be useful. Spanish would also be useful.
I think I'll go for Russian, but I've still got time to change my mind. |

| I used to think I couldn't sing at all. It turns out that's because the parts I was expected to sing in school were too high for me. Also, I don't think my voice sounds great but I could improve that with practice. |

| At GCSE I only got really good grades in maths and physics. I barely managed a C in English, but my predicted grade was a high B. The rest of my grades were average, because I got good marks in the stuff that didn't involve writing, and bad marks in the stuff that did. My German teacher thought I wo... |

| I confess that I lost 19 marks on a 75 mark exam paper (just over 25%) by leaving out a minus sign on one question and adding one where it shouldn't have been on another question.

Asperger's syndrome is Aspergersheilkenni
Heilkenni means syndrome, so this is straightforward.
Autism is einhverfa.
This is not so straightforward. I'm not sure where this comes from. Hverfa means to disappear or to turn, but I'm not sure about ein. |
