the year's end.

so i guess it's time to do the year long reflection post. i'm going to adelaide tomorrow and i'm not sure if there's internet there D: so i'll try to be comprehensive as possible as i semi-pack for the city of churches.

where do we start? i think this year has been probably the most rollercoaster-like year of my life. i've had my heartbreaks (x infnity) but really, what are the ups without the downs? so many great moments. this year hasn't been the biggest for epic roadtrips or sleepovers like last year, but for the little moments, conversations and dates that in the end, are what's truly important. it was my last year at uni and filled with placements and experience in my professional area of life. i've travelled and i've reached a few of life's landmarks. i've had those hard conversations that end in tears and others about nothing at all.

it's been a tough year, but the ride was worth the dips.. cause i'd rather live life to the full and experience the hurts along the way than live in mediocrity and have nothing to reflect on. i'd rather a y = sinx life than a y = 0 . yes i am a nerd. you love it :)

i think i've talked to death about my year already, so i won't rehash all the emotional details X) just talk to me and ask me if you want, cause really i love the sound of my own voice :P

so instead, i'll to the typical year in photos/ blog post recaps X) cause that's how we rolled.

the gift.

And with this Christmas wish is missed
The point I could convey
If only I could find the words to say
to let You know how much You've touched my life

Because here is where You're finding me,
in the exact same place as New Year's eve


And from a lack of my persistency
We're less than half as close as I want to be

And the first time
That You opened Your eyes did You realize that You would be my Saviour
And the first breath that left Your lips
Did You know that it would change this world forever

And so this Christmas I'll compare the things I felt in prior years
To what this midnight made so clear
That You have come to meet me here

To look back and think that
This baby would one day save me
In the hope that what You did
That you were born so I might live
To look back and think that
This baby would one day save me

And I, I celebrate the day
That You were born to die
So I could one day pray for You to save my life

vanuatu

so i'm typing this blog from notepad since the internet here is really slow. i haven't had access to the internet on my laptop for this whole time and now i think i've figured out why.. stupid firewalls. i am prow hax0rz srsly. so i've been using my iphone to upload the photos that i've uploaded so far and only now attempting to upload my DSLR photos :)

so far it's been pretty fun. the people here are incredibly friendly, that it really puts us aussies to shame. so socially awkward, srsly. the attitude here is just so chillax.. and well.. happy :) it's really nice here. our place is right in the middle of port villa and the ocean is close than the bus stop is to my house at home x) so it's pretty sweeet.



Yeah, this is my view. Be jealous.

(:

my favourite couple :)

so the pseudograduation was last night, aka the badge ceremony.

it was amazing :)

two days ago, it looked like no one was going -- amy and diana hadn't bought badges, fran hadn't replied and lucy had placements and neil is a snorlax. but after some convincing, i turned up at 6pm at front cafe and EVERYONE WAS THERE :) :)

the whole ceremony was fairly enjoyable, with all our lectures there to make speeches and such and HEAPSA OF MY PHOTOS were used in the photoslideshowvideolikething :) so proud! the moment standing behind the stage waiting for my name to be called was amazing, as my name was called by the amazing tanya uebergang, i looked into her eyes, smiled and skipped on stage to grab my badge from santha :D with a GO RAHFACE in the audience x) hehe. love my kids :)

i am incredibly happy.
now to get through 8 more shifts of placements!
