Does anybody else get the impression that Lily may have only gone to university to find a husband?
Just something I found myself pondering on when somebody posted those photos of her looking super young at freshers week, wearing her hair in its natural curls. And Rich was already there, in the background, and presumably has been ever since.
We already know that Lily did not value her education, as she’s admitted that she never worked hard at school (despite her parents paying tens of thousands for private school), and her general lack of ability to use written expression and grammar. And I don’t think she’d already started her blog before she went to university, had she? So, she obviously wasn’t aiming to get a marketing degree to enhance her existing skills in the online arena. She also doesn’t seem to understand that education is a lifelong pursuit, hence her “biggest regret” being dropping history and geography, when she could just pick up a book and study that now.
I suppose there’s always the chance that she just went to uni for the life experience, and because it’s what people in her circle do, but I wonder if, maybe even sub-consciously, her aim in her mind was that this would be a useful place to find a man. I’ve wondered the same thing about Anna, too, especially since a poster pointed out on her thread that apparently she had said to another fresher, “That one is mine,” when she met Mark.
my friend lives up North (in England) and was looking at a 4 bed for £90,000. Couldn’t bring myself to tell her how much we’d spent on ours for half the size!
doesn’t seem to have it in her.
London pricing is so ridiculous but my job requires me to stay here.
