Alice in Wonderland

- the musical -

The division V and VI classes did their last part of the play this evening. They had two versions, because some of the kids wanted to be different characters, so they switched positions (obviously on the two nights). It was quite good, yet I'm so glad it's over because we don't need to be spending ages helping to make the props, costumes and getting everything ready and sorted. Which is also what brings me to the excitement of the holidays. The one thing I love about being a gap student in the U.K is the amount of holidays we get in a year, every five weeks we either get a long holiday (Easter, Summer, Christmas) and the one week in between for every other holiday there is. :)

Looking forward to the weekend

Tomorrow is the last day of the Spring term! And because of that, that means.... HOLIDAYS! Which go on for the whole month of April, ending on the 2nd of May. I'm so excited because these April/Easter holidays, I'll be going to Scotland, followed by Ireland, and ending in England, travelling through London and its surroundings. I've finally booked all the tours, accommodation, flights, tickets, and everything else that goes into organising these kind of things. But blimy, it was stressful, although it will definitely be worth it.

Today felt like a really long day that just seemed to drag on, hour after hour after hour. The main school had hymn practice this morning, then followed on by my duties with the junior school, and then the typical maths, and reading lessons. I did get to catch up a little bit with Bryan, Don and Nathan. I still feel bad because I normally always talk to these guys heaps, but lately I haven't been because I'm/they're so busy with life and everything else that goes along with it.

But in all, everything's all good. I'm content. :)

Mother's Day, UK

Mother's day here in the United Kingdom will be celebrated on the 3rd of April this year, whereas, in Australia, it will be celebrated something rather in May? So my mother's day gift will most likely be a long email with a few youtube videos, and a thank you email. Only because I didn't realise that it would be mother's day here, and I know I need to thank her for heaps. :)

Such a great day!

I don't even know where to begin! I was with pre-prep this morning, just doing little assessments and things like that. And then I had maths, followed by division III reading.

What made my day a brighter was catching up with my friend Marcus, who I haven't spoken to in a month (or maybe even longer than that). So it was really good to catch up with him.

There weren't many boarders tonight, but despite that, the division V and VI class put on a musical play of Alice in Wonderland, so we all (including parents) spent the rest of the evening watching that. It was great fun, and I've realised how much I miss sitting down and watching something entertaining, that was school related.

To top of this fantastic day, I received a call from mother dear, giving a heads up for my Summer bookings. I'll be going on a 32 day camping trip around Europe with the other gap student who lives with me. The tour will be on during both our birthdays. And we'll be travelling to the following countries: England, France, Switzerland, Spain, Italy, Greece, Albania, Montenegro, Croatia, Slovenia, Austria, Czech Republic, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium!! I'm so excited! I'll be celebrating my 19th birthday sailing in and amongst the Greek islands!!!!! :):)

British Census 2011

I'm not sure if it's illegal to take photos and post it up, but anyways. Some of the questions were well weird, such as "Question 17, this is not a question. Move to 18" Haha. Made me literally laugh out loud. But the interesting thing about a census is that it gets published 100 years from now, making it easy for descendants to track down ancestors. I find that way awesome. But anyways, I was finding it weird answering questions about my ethnicity (which is Filipino), whereas my nationality is Australian. Well weird. But it was fun... I guess :P

Good riddance to bad rubbish

Ever wondered about that point in time back in the last year of high school... where everything was happening, pressure was on, friendships were getting harder and harder to maintain, and at a moment when you were most vulnerable, you felt like you were just going to let go, give up and walk away? I know I've felt like that countless number of times. And I thought I just kept re-hearing the lines "don't worry, let time take it's role".

But now that I know that's true, it's a whole new different story.

I guess I would just basically say that I was scared and insecure to move forward with life. And honestly.. who isn't? Who isn't afraid to take the leap and try something out of their comfort zone? We all are, but we just don't always have the courage to admit it. I know by far, that the biggest challenge I have, besides travelling, is moving on with life. I can truthfully say right now, that heck yes I'm scared of the future and anything else ahead of me, but I sure am looking forward to everything else that is yet to come my way, whether that be good or bad. Because in every new experience we have, there is always a valuable lesson, and whether the experience was worthwhile or not, what we get out of it is what matters the most.

We all have our expectations and disappoints in everything we do, but what happens when you expect nothing, you could end up with nothing in return. It's not like we're just going to sit back, relax, expect nothing, and put no effort into what we want in the end. And because of that, we'll all end up disappointed at the end of everyday, before going to sleep, knowing that we did not try at all. It's come to now, that I've let go of the rest of the world acting as my conscience and making decisions for myself, instead of thinking of what's best for myself. What someone else might think may be the 'best thing to do', because it's what they would do, may not necessarily be the best thing for you to do. And mind you, it's tough. I've never really had to make decisions such as these on my own.

Who I became friends with was just automatically, who I clicked with, who stayed, and who never left. But it's just not like that anymore. Now that everyone has been apart because of university and other plans in life, it all comes down to who makes the effort to be able to maintain the friendship, who makes effort to check up on each other, who makes the effort to even consider the other person a friend? It's hard to tell sometimes, and since then, I've just had major trust issues with people. But I've come to realise that I've only put that wall against myself because I was scared that certain things would happen again. But why let the past dictate future actions?

My heart is content, now that I can say,

good riddance to bad rubbish :)

Music brings the world together

No matter where you are, no matter what kind of music you like, or what language you speak. Music brings people together. :)

Mixed

I've never been so scared in my life. I know why I'm here, I know what I'm doing. I'm still afraid to let time take it's place with my life. I'm starting to stress with all these bookings, flights, train travel, and everything that goes along with that. It is stressful, and I've never had to deal with it myself. But if you don't take the risk now, how will you ever know? You will be wondering about it all your life. I'm going to Scotland next week, then Ireland right after, then finishing it off by exploring London and it's surrounding cities. I've never had to travel on my own, sort my own bookings, sort my own flights or accommodation and food. And trust me, it's hard. But I know that throughout the year, I will learn to deal with it and just get on like normal.

Why I love babysitting

I started at 7pm last night and finished around about 12.30am. The kids were lovely, and it was easy getting them to sleep because they've had such an exhausting day. The youngest went to bed at about 8.30pm. So I had time to chill and watch movies with the other child. Which we ended up watching Harry Potter and the chamber of Secrets. Nearly dozed off to sleep, until the dog barked, wanting to come up on the lounge and snooze. I love babysitting because I can just feel at home, and make myself feel comfortable. So that was a good night's job.

After a long week

I honestly feel really homesick. I miss so many people. I miss my family in the Philippines, I miss my home in Australia. I miss my friends. I can't live without them...

"Before you wish Karma on someone,

you better take a look back in your life and make sure your hands are clean."

“We cannot change our past. We can not change the fact that people act in a certain way. We can not change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.”

Often people don't seem to realise it. Because a lot of the time, we spend lingering on and wondering what could've/would've/should've kinda moments in life. But what we seem to forget is the things we have with us. We spend way too much time wondering why people treated us a certain way that they once have. And when looking at the time span, it has been way too long since it has actually happened. I'm truthfully more than happy where I am, and that's all that should matter. :) x

23/March/2011

I woke up to horrible news this morning. I honestly didn't want to get up. I just had a sudden lack of motivation to do anything today. And it still frustrates me that I'm on the other side of the world while I have friends and family that are grieving. But by the time I got into the pre-prep building, then out on duty for playtime, EmC came up to me just giving me cuddles and hugs. I asked her what was wrong. She said she felt cold. Compared to all the other children who were complaining about the "boiling" weather. (Mind you, it was honestly just a little over 5 degrees Celsius). But I was feeling a bit hot too. #transformation of my life. Ha. So they just seemed to make my day. And it's getting better.

#Rest in peace; B.V & C.V.V

West Stow - 21st March 2011

The first anglo-saxon village in Britain. I went with Ms P and the division IV class. And I know I'm incredibly short compared to the boys. It was a great day. 'Warm' and sunny! :)

Glebe's got talent/Comic relief/Red nose day. 18th March 2011

Great day all up. Managed to raise just a little bit over 1000pounds (Approximately). And the talent show in the evening went really well. Got to serve drinks to the parents, as well as take literally hundreds of photos. Good day/night all up :).

Science Show - 17th March 2011

I know this blog is long term overdue, as well as the following blogs that I am going to write. I've had a busy week last week, and I seriously find it so hard to keep up with people. The science show was fantastic. It was a boarders treat that was paid by the headmaster for all the boarders + gap students to go on. And the kids we went with were no older than division VIII's. It was academically enriching, and I learnt a fair bit (physics/chemistry/biology). It wasn't just the broad terms of science. :)

St Patrick's Day

Happy St Patrick's Day everyone! Yes, I'm wearing green, but no - unfortunately, I'm not in Ireland ... yet. :) xx

~ Statistics, Lyfe Jennings ~

Sometimes, it's just hard to find motivation to do things, such as getting up in the morning, to going to school or work, also to get to sleep at night. I find it a challenge, as a teacher's assistant to find inspiration and motivation to give to the students. It's just a constant cycle of give and take. Sometimes, we have to give others inspiration and motivation in order for us to learn something from it, or vice versa. A child asked me one time.. "Why do you bother with the children that don't listen?" And I mean, it's for their own good that we teach them a lesson. And I do believe education starts at a young age. That even though a parent may be the first teacher to a child, it's a teacher's duty to educate them, so that they may learn to become a better person as they grow older. And it feels good to see it through a different perspective. But on the other hand, it feels really good to be inspired. And in saying that.. the 'real world' out there is tough. But by stepping out of my usual comfort zone, and the things that I'm normally doing, and going into something that I've never done before, that I've never been to has taught me a lot of lessons. Everyone that I've met here and while I've been travelling are all wonderful and helpful people. Although no matter how much you do for someone, no matter how much effort you put into making someone happy, they're not always going to appreciate it. They may not even realize your intentions. But that's reality. In the world out there, the world that we live in, no one is ever obliged to make another person feel happy or good about themselves. But when you're forced to do that, in the end, you're the only one searching for your own happiness. And through my eyes, I've found that you've got to make your own happiness. You can search through and through, country to country, person to person. You're not going to find it if you're only searching for it. People often say that they 'want to go out into the world to find themselves'. Although honestly, it's not the world that they find themselves in, it's the world that helps them create the person they are. It is through this school that I've actually learnt how to be patient. And it's through travelling on my own that I've gained a lot more confidence. It is a challenge, but it's a challenge that I love going through.

And it's through my eyes that I've come to realize... that the world out there isn't that tough, and that nothing is as bad as it ever seems to be.. :)

0614 Sunrise

I love the feeling after a run, and seeing the sun rise :)

Hunstanton Cliffs

And finally, a chill weekend

No babysitting, no school events, just a weekend where we can chill. Caught up on a few friends yesterday morning. We went down to the shops to buy some munchies, crisps, cake ingredients, chocolate, and all other junk food there was to buy. Haha. Then came back to go for a run down the beach. There were so many tourists there. I was surprised at the accents I was hearing? But anyways, we got back to school, did some laundry, then off to bake the cake! It was sooo nice, it was a glutten free vanilla cake with jam, cream and flake on top. Had dinner which was pasta, and then watched series/movies for the rest of the night. :)

Secret diary of a call girl, S01E08

That's the thing. In London, you can keep secrets, you can be anonymous. You can be whoever you want. But as long as one person knows you entirely, and loves you still-- It's the best place in the world.

Vulnerable to technology and communications

Admit it, we all are. For the fact we know that we can just pickup a telephone, dial a few numbers, and there - we're able to speak to the ones we need. We're able to just click a link or a button and there, we're able to speak to those through the internet. It's right there before us all the time. But when something strikes, something hits, something way beyond our control happens, we're left with fear. I know someone who has had their family stuck in Christchurch, and were not able to contact them. Although there's this thing called the internet, and everything else to do with communication, when it's not available, what more can we do? Not that I'm a major fan in religion, but wouldn't you think that's it's like a wake up call for us all? That we just don't seem to appreciate what we've got. And I guess I could stand by that. Looking at the amazing views of England from the top of cathedrals, to travelling through the country via national rail, to just about anything has taught me well a lot about appreciation. So let's not take anything for granted.

It's not always just about fun..

So many out there work so hard for money, to feed their family, to pay the bills, the mortgage, the fees, etc. Then when a natural disaster has dedicatedly destroyed everything they could possibly have, it's all gone. There's nothing we can do about it... We tend to think inside 'our own little worlds', have the time of our lives, and work hard for what? If this is all that is going to happen. We don't tend to appreciate the world around us, the atmosphere, the beauty of nature and the people around us. It's just full of hate and pollution. And we'll never seem to learn, because it takes a lot to learn how to appreciate things, sometimes it may be having to lose something to find the real meaning of it's value. And in other cases, it may just take a while to learn.

And if *knock on wood* everything does disappear, everything gets destroyed.. What next? Are we able to say that we've lived life to the fullest, and fulfilled everything that we've wanted to achieve? I don't like thinking about it, but I've been worried all morning, especially knowing that I've got family and friends in most of those countries on watch. Even though you'd be able to say "Oh, don't worry, you're in the Northern Hemisphere, don't worry, you'll be fine", I'm literally as scared as those people who are currently living in those countries. :(

Tsunami watch

Hoping everyone in Japan, Indonesia, Taiwan, Australia, New Zealand, South American Coast, and every country in the Pacific is ok :(

What happened to the...

soulfulcaptivity:

I was shooting a scene in my new film, No Strings Attached, in which I say to Natalie Portman,

“If you miss me. you can’t text, you can’t email, you can’t post it on my Facebook wall. If you really miss me, you come and see me.”

I began to think of all of the billions of intimate exchanges sent daily via fingers and screens, bouncing between satellites and servers. With all this texting, emailing, and social networking, I started wondering, are we all becoming so in touch with one another that we are in danger of losing touch?

It used to be that boy met girl and they exchanged phone numbers. Anticipation built. They imagined the entire relationship before a call ever happened. The phone rang. Hearts pounded. “Hello?” Followed by a conversation that lasted two hours but felt like two minutes and would be examined with friends for two weeks. If all went well, a date was arranged. That was then.

Now we exchange numbers but text instead of calling because it mitigates the risks of early failure and eliminates those deafening moments of silence. Now anticipation builds. Bdoop. “It was NICE meeting u” Both sides overanalyze every word. We talk to a friend, an impromptu Cyrano: “He wrote nice in all caps. What does that mean? What do I write back?” Then we write a response and delete it 10 times before sending a message that will appear 2 care, but not 2 much. If all goes well, a date will be arranged.

Whether you like it or not, the digital age has produced a new format for modern romance, and natural selection may be favoring the quick-thumbed quip peddler over the confident, ice-breaking alpha male. Or maybe we are hiding behind the cloak of digital text and spell-check to present superior versions of ourselves while using these less intimate forms of communication to accelerate the courting process. So what’s it really good for?

There is some argument about who actually invented text messaging, but I think it’s safe to say it was a man. Multiple studies have shown that the average man uses about half as many words per day as women, thus text messaging. It eliminates hellos and goodbyes and cuts right to the chase. Now, if that’s not male behavior, I don’t know what is. It’s also great for passing notes. there is something fun about sharing secrets with your date while in the company of others. think of texting as a modern whisper in your lover’s car.

Sending sweet nothings on Twitter or Facebook is also fun. in some ways, it’s no different than sending flowers to the office: You are declaring your love for everyone to see. Who doesn’t like to be publicly adored. Just remember that what you post is out there and there’s some stuff you can’t un-see. But the reality is that we communicate with every part of our being, and there are times when we must use it all. When someone needs us, he or she needs all of us. There’s no text that can replace a loving touch when someone we love is hurting.

We haven’t lost romance in the digital age, but we may be neglecting it. In doing so, antiquated art forms are taking on new importance. The power of a hand-written letter is greater than ever. It’s personal and deliberate means more than an email or text ever will. It has a unique scent. It requires deciphering. But, most important, it’s flawed There are errors in handwriting, punctuation, grammar, and spelling that show our vulnerability. And vulnerability is the essence of romance. It’s the art of being uncalculated, the willingness to look foolish, the courage to say,

“This is me, and I’m interested in you enough to show you my flaws with the hope that you may embrace me for all that I am but, more importantly, all that I am not.”

Intelligence & Independence

Don't think anything can top that?

Holidays

I love how English kids get one week off (holidays/half term break) every five weeks, and then a whole two months and one week in the Summer... that just means more travel time :) omgd :):)

There's always gonna be another mountain, and I'm always gonna wanna make it move

I've literally been so motivated since I've been here. Motivated in all aspects of life. So I'm happy, obviously. But just a little rant... Just before UAC sent out university offers.. a lot of people were literally hoping/praying/doing everything possible to try to get into university, but now that they're in it, they're complaining about it and what outs? Have no idea how it feels, but wouldn't you want to be proud of what you've worked for? I know that the Australian government had a little complain earlier this year about the amount of deferrals/gap years that students have taken. But in all honesty, out of all the decisions that I've ever made in my entire life - this one has got to be the best that I've ever made. I know that even if I did accept going to university, I would've ended up in a course that I'm uncertain of finishing, hence the lack of motivation that I would've had, IF I decided to do that. And even though I 'lag' by a year behind my friends, I don't really mind, because in the end, it doesn't matter how long it took you to get there. Not one person will bother that it took you five or six years to become a nurse, or ten years to become a doctor, because in the end... you'll have the same qualification as to another person with the same occupation, who did it the 'normal length' of time. I'm happy with where I am, so you don't have to worry about me too much :) xx

Signed, sealed, delivered

It takes just over a month for post to get sent/delivered back home. I sent a heap of postcards and letters within the first few weeks that I've been in England, and they've only just arrived now. Weird. But anyways. I've spent the whole night last night trying to organise my flights, accommodations and tours for Scotland and Ireland. It's so hard trying to sync them together, and also having the time that I stay over night in one country, as oppose to sleeping by the train station. It scares me, but I'm relieved that I've finished with all of it. Other than that, I'm so excited, because I'm going in just less than a month! Woooo :):)

Flights, accommodation, tours AND TIMING

It's so frustrating trying to sync in the times of trains, with the times of tours starting, with the times of the flights. omgd.

19/FEB/2011 Photos

Most of these photos were taken with my Samsung digital camera that I bought as a back up to my Canon1000D. It was also because I needed a camera that I can just keep in my bag, which was really handy most of the time, especially for the nightlife.


Weird bottles of Fanta.


Big Ben is actually a nickname for "Clock tower of St Stephens"


Myself, inside the Mariott Hotel waiting to get picked up to go to the tour.


Myself, outside Windsor Castle, which was where the Queen was staying on that day.


Myself, Windsor Castle.


Myself, outside Stonehenge.


Dane and myself with the Romans, in Bath.


I absolutely love these Roman Baths! And yes, they were actual hot spings!


I literally feel in love with the architecture of this old gregorian city!


Dane and myself outside Bath Abbey.


Self explanatory.


The Ritz Hotel, London. This is found just outside Green Park tube station. It is also known as the most expensive to buy on the board game - Monopoly.


Dane and I had pizza for dinner, so nope, not everything in this photo went into my tummy. ahhaha


Just around Piccadilly.

Chinese New Year was still being celebrated in China Town, London. It was literally a town, not just a street (like Sydney).


Just outside the National Art Gallery!

My new London Hoodie

I am going to have a photo spam of photos that I have taken in London during the half term break. I've been so flat out busy with everything else, I haven't had much time to update my blog. I am still contemplating on the banner, and I might change it again later. Haha :) x

Silk Road Restaurant

The members of staff treated us gap students to dinner tonight. It was an official 'Welcome' and 'Thank you' (For the work we've done all weekend), so it was quite filling and relaxing. It was also good to hear an Asian accent (Chinese). Haven't heard that in a long time since I've been here. And we had a good variety of dishes. And now, I'm just going to relax, read and then hit the hay. So good night everyone, good morning to all the Sydney siders :) xx

Unwritten

Staring at the blank page before you, open up the dirty window, let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find.. Reaching for something in the distance so close you can almost taste it, release your inhibitions, feel the rain on your skin. No one else can feel it for you. Only you can let it in. No one else, no one else can speak the words on your lips. Drench yourself in words unspoken. Live your life with arms wide open. Today is where your book begins. The rest is still unwritten.. - Natasha Bedingfield

It's almost down to the two month mark down that I've been away from home. Time is so precious. I don't even know where it's gone. I've honestly been so busy lately. I haven't even had the time to skype my bestest friends, or talk to them in a proper conversation that would last longer than ten to fifteen minutes. And I really don't want to be spending all weekend on my laptop. Yesterday morning, the school had an open day, so we had to help out with the activities and supervise those kids that had no other staff members with them. Right after it finished, I went for a walk down town, and also along the coast. Although it was extremely cold, it was nice to breathe in fresh sea air. And there were people there surfing, it was insane, but I guess it's normal weather to them. Also did some grocery shopping, didn't spend too much which was good. Headed back to the boarding house, and only had a few hours to spare. So I got my laundry washed and dried within two hours. Had dinner, and then got picked up by a mother who wanted me to babysit her children for the night. I got to the house and was absolutely amazed by how big it was, and how traditionally English the house was. I got to know the kids as soon as I got there, and they were absolutely well mannered and sweet. I had to babysit a 6, 10 and 15 year old. The two older ones were just doing their own thing, and I was there to make sure that they were safe and well behaved. The youngest, I had to play with, so we played dress ups, and dressing up dolls. We also played a few board games, such as monopoly and scrabble. Haha, I noticed that on Monopoly, the stops/places were places in London, such as the Ritz Hotel, which is supposedly the most expensive to buy on Monopoly, is one of the first class/five stars Hotels in London, which is near Green Park tube station. It was fun feeling like a child again. I had to put the youngest to sleep at 9pm, but it took about 5-8 books of reading for her to feel sleepy enough to sleep. The other two stayed up for a little longer, and got to sleep around 10-11pm. I had a few hours to myself before the parents came back home. So I watched cable tv. I was so amazed at how many channels there are. There's about more than 6 channels just of Disney, all with different shows/movies on each one. But I ended up watching "He's just not that into you", and just in time when it finished, the parents came home, and they sent me back with a taxi that they've already paid for. I seriously appreciated it so much, considering that the drive back to school from their house took about 20 minutes or so. And on top of that, I also got paid for the babysitting. So now, I've got extra money to spend for the April holidays, but I honestly want to save it up for the Summer holidays which goes on for two months. So I'm planning to pay for my July spendings, which I haven't decided on what to do yet. I am planning to meet up with a friend from home, who I'll hopefully get to see in Paris. I'm so excited for that! So yeah, other than me being so busy, that's all for now I guess. :) xx

just a quick update

i'm currently using my mobile phone to type this blog out. and im babysitting right now. though the kids have gone to sleep. it's just me up right now.. waiting for the parents to come back.i've had such a busy week ever since i cam back from london. the musical soiree last night was reallllyyy goood! open day this morning was just so hecktiq, so many people walking in and out, going on school tours and what not. then i had a quick run down to the shops to get some grocery, then came back quickly to do laundry, then time just went by so fast, it was already 6.30pm, and i was being picked up to go babysit a few kids at a house. it was really good. had to put the youngest to sleep by 9pm, but it took about 5 books worth of story time to get her to bed, and the two older kids were just fine with getting themselves organised, ready to go to bed. :)

Bit out of it

.. I know I haven't spent much time catching up with anyone. I've just been so busy lately. I've got a swaray this evening, and I'm probably needed for taking photographs, a school open day on Saturday morning, a babysitting job on Saturday night, and hopefully a day off on Sunday where I can catch up on sleep, and do all the chores that I'm behind on for this week. :) xo

Contemplating just a little..

Or maybe a lot... These past two months have taught a lot about independence, and not having to rely on anybody. I miss having a best friend who is just a phone call away, one to call when I'm upset, or when I just have really good news to tell. I already feel so disconnected from a lot of people. And it's been so long since I've spoken to my best friends properly. I feel so bad, but yet, I don't know what to do anymore. And you're probably reading this like "what the heck?" I know that I'm pretty much like an open book. And I don't really care anymore. It feels so weird not knowing what's happening back home, and how people are? I know I've made a lot of friends here already, but then I guess, I might just be a little homesick? But I do feel left out when I go onto facebook and see the newsfeed, and seeing what everyone's up to. And that's why I never want to go online these days. It just makes me feel worse. Lol. This sounds so dramatic, but I just need to vent out a little.
