all's well that ends well...

well....the end of another chapter in Barb's book of life...
Grad dinner was a lot of fun before, during and after....
beforehand, the girls dorms reeked of perfume and hairspray and the halls were filled of half dressed girls screaming for things....fun fun fun. Then an hour of photos...which is when I got into the "boys only" picture!
Dinner itself was amazing (staff did a steller job!) and Josh (my date) made the night a million times more fun for me. (Cheers to squished ants Joshie!)
Afterwards we all hung out in the main lounge for more pictures...then we cranked dance music....the waltz! hahaha

So yes...capernwray is done - life as I know it? Gone.
But if the saying "all's well that ends well" is right...then all is heaps awesome.

Glen Innes...The Town of all Retirement Villages

So I'm in Glen Innes on my Prac Week (Prac Week is a week where we put what we learned into action)

Glen Innes has 6000 people and is so cold it's not fair. You'd think because we're 10 hours NW of Sydney it would be warmer..nope...yay elevation!

Anyways, we are really just in charge of church services and leading bible studies. We figured our motto for the week should be "Blessed for blessing" because we are really doing very little but these people are ALWAYS feeding us and doing things for us and loving us and planning fun things for us to do. They're amazing.

We went to some of the little kid schools and did scripture and we also visited the oldies home. Other than that, we've gone to farms (I rode a sheep!!!) and we are going to hot springs tomorrow and OOOO we went FOSSICKING (like panning for gold but we were looking for gems) I found some sapphires!!!

We've also played a lot of sport including Ultimate Frissbee, Footy, Cricket and Grounders....yes...grounders on little kid playgrounds... Shut up. It's so fun.

Anyways, I should go because I have a hair appointment in a little bit.
I love you all and I miss you like a fat kid misses tim tams (double coat!)
