But even though it's not like I'd go on to get a job from my degree, I wish I had gone to university, I wish I'd had that experience. I won't go to a university, I'll do it online and with a tutor, but that's my plan for 2025. It's just to get the qualifications.''
Adele tells the Independent newspaper that she has yet to listen to Taylor Swift's new album, ''Midnights". "I haven’t. But the only reason I haven’t listened is ‘cause I’ve been in rehearsals for like 12 hours a day.

She makes a release fun."

My crush was crushing; not only was she way out of my league, but she was also married to one of the most famous rock stars on the planet, Eddie Van Halen. It is important to point out here that my feelings for Valerie were real. I was completely captivated — I mean, I was obsessed with her and harbored elaborate fantasies about her leaving Eddie Van Halen and living out the rest of her days with me. Things finally came to a head one night . . . I was over at Valerie and Eddie’s house, just hanging out and gazing at Valerie, trying to make her laugh. When you made her laugh, you felt ten feet tall. As the night progressed, it was clear that Eddie had enjoyed the fruits of the vine a little too hard, one more time, and eventually he just passed out, not ten feet away from us, but still. This was my chance! If you think I didn’t actually have a chance in hell you’d be wrong, dear reader — Valerie and I had a long, elaborate make-out session. It was happening — maybe she felt the same way I did. I told her I had thought about doing that for a long time, and she had said it right back to me.”

Dear Fonseca
Our five-year-old son is dying to watch scary Halloween movies with his older brothers. They are 16 and 18 years old. My husband and I have done everything we can to keep our youngest son away from the scary films. He insists on watching them and keeps sneaking behind our backs in order to do so. My husband says we should allow him to watch the scariest movie we can find. He says doing that will scare him and take care of our problem. My mother thinks it's cruel and child abuse if we do that. What do you think? Good parenting or not? It would teach him a lesson
