summer garden party




I have really been enjoying all the grad posts all over blogger. Shirley's grad & Alexandra's Grad come to mind ....I think it's because it reminds me of mine....and how excited I was with all of my friends....the uncertainty of what comes next and also the realisation that there is a NEXT and that we would all go our separate ways.....college was the most fun filled jam packed four years...so many good times, such wonderful girls...... we lived in a girls dorm and while it might seem old school to some....it allowed us to really connect with each other....rather than worry about being noticed or impressive.....it also created some fun times with the boys dorm/girl dorm rivalry..... like I said...kinda old school....but LOADS of fun...... I can't believe its my second year out teaching since graduating....time does fly!

My friends are scattered all over Australia...some are working internationally as well......I moved to the other side of Australia leaving behind my home, family and friends on a quest to "make a change" and have an adventure after grad...... but we still have that genuine friendship of our time spent together as sisters...... Here are some pics of our Grad garden party.....it was all the girls on our floor.....Level 2!  We chucked everything out our windows and set up outside...it was warm....we had a dance floor, bubbles, watermelon and punch.....it was prefect! So I will be sharing a few more pics of my graduation in 2009....and I'm also looking forward to my sisters graduation December this year...... Congratulations to the 2011 Graduates!


Big Love,

  6. Hey Joy! No there wasnt any boys around....it was near graduation so most of the students had left and the girls came back esp for it.... where I studied we didnt have co-ed dorms.... so old skool but kinda fun....we had girls tying sheets together to haul up their boyfriends.....and vice versa.... I live on the South Coast of NSW but always out and about around sydney.... Thanks for the love ladies!!! xo
