I have a wide vocabulary because I wanted to better myself, and I still do. Most of my education has been self-taught, or by doing some adult learning/night school etc.
Technically I'm a college drop-out, although my qualifications are pretty good as I've improved myself as I've gotten older (and wiser).
I recently qualified as an advanced web designer, and right now I'm re-doing Maths GCSE. After that I think I'll try my hand at learning a programming language. Or maybe scripting. Or both.

I think eventually I want to earn a degree, but I'll have to see how far things go.
