The Dragon Gappies of 2010

I LOVE EBAY!

So my fellow crusha cats aka, Amelia and Ellie Chapman bought tickets to the Florence and the Machines concert about 2 months ago. I was insanley jealous and desperatley wanted to go. Next thing you know a ticket became avalible and was quickly snatched up by none other then the other crusha cat herself Lucy Cush. I was now heartbroken and because I always work weekends it was something I thought I had to sacrifice. So SUnday afternoon good old Crusha Amelia was doing some searching on ebay and came across a ticket for Florence and it was exactly the same as the ones that the other 3 had. So after many text meassages a conversation to my boss Caroline I was able to have Saturday night off to take the train to London and go to the concert. So thankyou ebay member: intersoulwax you have made my weekend possible!

4 months and counting...

Somehow time has flown and I am 1/3 of my way through my gap year. So much has happened and so much is still to happen. So far there has been the big move to England, a new school, meeting new people, then a trip to Ireland, visits to London, Paris, Spain and Portugal, many birthdays and nights out, over 1000 photos all ready taken and the new hair cut in Tony and Guy in London. Yet the most exciting things to happen are now just around the corner. There is Florence and the Machines concert this weekend, a visit from the Krelle women in 1 month and 13 days, then I have a whole month to travel with my best friend through Europe and the cherry on top, the visit from my Family where we are travelling through France on boats and then to our villa in Italy. It is amazing to think how quickly this year is going and that I have to make the most of every day!

This is what kept us laughing through our holiday!

MESS

Never again will I complain about the mess that Anna leaves in the bathroom ever agin! After living with 40 boys a bit of water splashed here and there will be nothing compared to the crazy stuff I find all over this house. Oh the joys!

International Night!

Last night was International Night here in Gunga. Considering that over half of the boys live overseas it was fascinating to here about where they live. Some of the boys brought back food for us to try and I made them some good old Lamingtons which they loved. All in all it was a great night!

Holidays!

I had the most amazing easter holiday! We travelled all through Paris, Spain and Portugal and even managed to get stranded in Lisbon for an extra week due to a volcano! It was one to remember for sure! We took all modes of transport from buses to trains to planes and also a train hotel where we went from the far side of Spain to the other side of Portugal all in the comfort of ourown cabin! The beaches were stunning and our villas where to die for with amazing veiws! We had great weather the whole trip and even managed to work on our tans! Here are some snapshots from our adventure!
