Woohoo - this is my 100th post.
Today, it was Zosh's last Sunday Mass. I managed to hold back the tears til the Homily - though I had come close before that! From the Homily onwards, I cried a lot - especially when it came to doing the announcements at the end. If anybody understood what I said, it's a miracle!!!
Karen cooked pizzas today - thank you Karen!!! They were great - especially the "Karen Special"!
Zosh had bought presents for everyone - to say goodbye - they were great. I got a BIG Little Miss Sunshine book, & a silver cross - it's soo pretty.
After Mass, we had committee photos taken - I don't like photos, but as far as photo "sessions" go, this one wasn't bad.
My Grandparents are in Devon until Thursday. They're staying in Paignton though, so there is some distance between us. I love them a lot, but I'm quite independent, and my grandmother sometimes treats me like I'm still a little girl...I don't like that much. But, it's good that I get to see them. They're taking Zosh & me out for a meal tonight, which is nice.
For the past 4 days - 4 days!! - there has been NO HOT WATER in my house!! It's horrid. Now, when we hear screams of agony from the bathroom, we know it's because someone has decided that just maybe a cold shower is better than a cold strip wash. It's not. Cold strip washes aren't nice, but they're better than a cold shower. Yesterday, I went to the Chaplaincy for a shower - they have hot water.
Also at my house, we seem to have had no internet for 4 days. It's not good. It's just stopped working. So, I'm on campus using a computer that I can't really actually see, so I apologise for any typos that have resulted from that.
Yesterday, James, Mark, Amy, Zosh & I went on the rail ale trail. It was fun, though we didn't get to all of the pubs. I left a bit earlier than the rest of them though, as we were having a "goodbye" meal for my housemate, who is spending next year in Italy - I've been saying goodbye to so many people! However, I would have had to wait for an hour for the next train back from Crediton, so decided to walk in the general direction of Exeter until I found a bus stop with a bus timetable. As it was already 6pm, I decided that I'd do Scouts' Pace (20 paces of running, 20 of walking, repeat process...)...It took me a long time to find a bus stop with a bus timetable, so I ended up doing this for half an hour - in other words, all the way to Newton St Cyres. This morning, the muscles in my legs were a bit achy because of that!
Tomorrow, it's the summer ball. I'm v excited. Zosh looks lovely in her dress...I haven't tried my dress, shawl and shoes all on together yes, so I'm hoping they look OK.
I guess I'd better go home now, as I have to get ready to go out before my grandparents come & pick me up!
