Twenty-two-year-old teacher Stephen Daly cannot wait to start dating women, drinking copious amounts of alcohol and living life to the full. He had lived at home during his college years and missed out on much of the student experience. He was usually tucked up in his bed while his classmates partied endlessly in student haunts or made out in grotty little flats. Now that he had graduated and secured his first teaching job, he is determined to start a more carefree life and escape the sadness in his background.
