Ok, So You Thought This Day Would Never Happen...

And, frankly, neither did I
but yes yes yes! I AM BLOGGING AGAIN!

Here's a quick run down of my life recently...

Ok, so in February, for the half term, Bianca (QLD Beerwah gap) and I popped off down to Florence, where we had pizza and pasta, visited the Ponte Vecchio, Salvatore Ferragamo, the Uffizi Gallery, Salvatore Ferragamo, The Medici Palace, Salvatore Ferragamo, David, Salvatore Ferragamo, Shopped, Salvatore Ferragamo, the Markets, Salvatore Ferragamo, the Duomo, and did I mention Salvatore Ferragamo?
Yeah
I love that man
I would marry his descendants right now if I could.

The thing is, I'm not even joking, I made Bianca go into that shop at LEAST once a day, sometimes even, like, 3 times. It was soooo cooooool, hahahaha

That's all I have to say.


Just kidding

Then we went back to school, where we've been involved in Taster days, where random kids come into the school adn we treat them like students, and they have to do it on the weekend, and we get paid in either chocolate or alcohol

And then there's been a few wild clubbing nights, which are also AWESOME fun down in Chelmsford, where we've always got our 3 South African body guards to protect us
We went out for Beck's birthday, one of the teachers who we've befriended, and that was pretty crazy

And then I spent a weekend with Nicole, who baby sat me when I was about 9 or thereabouts, and she now lives in England with a rabbit, a dog and a fiancee, and we went bowling and out to dinner, and it was pretty great, nice to actually have a home cooked meal for a change

Then Elspeth Johnston and I went to London together for a weekend, which was the first of many weekends to come, in which we strive to see as much of the city as possible, and blueify it in true Grammar fashion!

And now, for the 3 week Easter break, I went on a tour with a company called Intrepid tours, which has taken me from Paris to Bruges to Amsterdam and finally to Berlin, where we saw the sights, such as the Moulin Rouge and Eiffel TOur, basicallly the entire HIstorical city of Bruges, the redlight district, Anne Franks House and the Rijks Museum in Amsterdam, and pretty much everything in berlin-thanks to Fat Tire Bike TOurs! There are 9 other people in the group, along with 3 tour leaders, named Barbara (BARBWA) Tim (Timotee) and Olga (like, the most ADORABLE girl you will ever encounter)
It's been absolutely WONDERFUL on the trip, even thought the youngest person aside from me is 25... hahahahaha. But everyone's been great, and I was labelled the baby of the group, and otherwise we never really acknowledged the gap (half the group didn't even REALISE I was only 18)

And yeah

Tomorrow I go back to New Hall for a week of lazing about up in our apartment, and probably just hanging out with Matt and Piero and their friends who've come to stay
Which could be a very interesting experience indeed.

hahaha

Missing you all!


Hugs and Kisses and Easter Wishes!


XOXOXO Charlotte
