Happy Birthday to Me! 🙂 18! Hopefully will be able to go out and celebrate tonight! Will post any pics if i do!
I have realised that my week is split into two halves: the good, and the hectic. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday (my one day off) and saturday are the ‘good halves’. I have a day off, and no morning duties (i.e. waking kids up) or arvo duties (i.e. putting kids to bed). Today was a hectic […]
I had my first day off from work on Friday! I only have one day off a week (yes, i do work weekends). I went into a local town called Stirling for the day with one of the other gappies called Kat (on the right) and the daughter of one of the teachers here (sara). Sara […]
On saturday night, us gappies have the night off duty. So, yesterday, sara (teacher’s daughter) took us four out for a night on the town. Caught the bus to Perth (another town about 45mins away) to a pub/night club called sportstas. Only problem was, i’m not 18, but managed to convince the bouncers to let […]

The school internet system is incredibly frustrating! It has a filtering system that blocks almost EVERYTHING! It blocks almost all forms of email that aren’t through the school. It blocks my website. It blocks, of all things, google. (but apparently, so the kids tell me, not the belgian version!) It isn’t even consistent. I can be on […]
Today was my actual first working day – and pretty hectic too. Morning was waking up all the boarders in the junior boys dorm (about 25 kids aged 7-9) and getting them dressed and ready for brekky. Food is actually really quite good! Apparently, the food at Ardvreck is to be made as an example […]
I’m in Scotland and it’s bloody cold! Arrived in Crieff (a small town about an hour north of Edinburgh) a couple of nights ago and have been staying at the school (Ardvreck). It’s a tiny, picturesque little school/castle, with breath-taking views of the scottish snow-capped mountains. It was snowing as we arrive. yes, very beautiful, and […]
