Cinderella

So I think most girls at one point or another have wanted to be Cinderella at the ball. Well I got my Cinderella moment last night when I was a guest at the local charity ball. I had the dress, the hair, the face, the shoes and most definitely the smile. And I had so much fun. We took stacks of photos so once I get them off the camera I will post some here. Chloe looked superb and had many comments about how equisite her dress is. Sarah and Pete were the lovely (if height mis-matched) couple. There were lovely decorations, the all-important multi-draw raffle (that I didn't win), a curious girl band that sang 60's, 70's and country. I danced the twist, sampled the buffet, posed for many photos and had an excellent night. Yay for country towns who can put on a great night out!

So I never got around to posting about the ball. And Now it is tomorrow so I thought I should get in before its too late. Tomorrow night I am going to a charity ball. I have bought my tickets, and a dress plus some shoes, makeup and jewellery to go with it all. Oh and some stockings so my legs looks smooth and sparkly. (I know that sounds weird but it would look awesome if you could see it). I am going with my housemate, her boyfriend, my sister plus a number of people from my work and it's gonna be so much fun. We are apparently having a trial run on the outfits and accessories tonight because you have to make sure you get the look perfect. And then tomorrow its partying until the break of dawn. Or almost anyway. The band finishes at 2am but it remains to be seen how long I can last. I will endeavour to post photos on here so you can all see how great I will look ;)

Grrrr
I am frustrated so I am blogging cuz no one else is home or awake. I am trying to find study options for next year while I am still living in small quaint country town with very few entertainment options. I had always thought since applying for the scholarship that to do some post grad study while out in the middle of nowhere would be a good idea. So I am trying to find courses that interest me. I have particular motivation to pursue this because my housemate is planning to study Midwifery next year and so she will always be busy studying and I dont want to be left out. I first looked at options at my alma mater which had some promising options but not exactly what i wanted. So I went and looked at other universities and after en extensive search, I discovered the no other universities other anything worth poking a stick at. Which frustrates me cuz it means that I now have almost no options in university choice for further education. In better news though, at least it proves that my university is the best nursing university in the state. So now the question is, what should I study next year? Well I have narrowed it down to two choices - Graduate Certificate in Paediatric, Child and Youth Health Nursing or Graduate Certificate in Medical/Surgical Nursing. Now I already now which one I will choose because I will choose the one that is best for me instead of the one I want but I would like the entertain the thought that I might actually study what I feel like studying. Now its just a matter of working out how to pay for it or apply for PELS or whatever replaced that when the government changed stuff.
