May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face
May the rain fall soft upon your field
And until we meet again
May God hold you in the palm of his hand
(A Celtic Blessing - appropriate!)
Bill, we wish you all the best with your future.
Tonight was Bill's leaving party, he heads back to America in the morning. I was meant to be at a Duke of Ed meeting at my house, but I really didn't want to miss it. I'm glad I went though. We're all gonna miss Bill... he's a great guy and has made a big difference here! :) We love you Bill! Thanks for a great 7 months!
Do you know what 'Goodbye' really means? It means "God Be With You". I like that a lot better!
When the party was over I arrived home at about midnight, not exactly happy, and walked into my room. At first glance, it was a mess. There was stuff all over my bed, and I thought, oh no, someone has been rummaging through my stuff! Who knows what they've seen! I wasn't in the mood to do much about it, so I sat down on my bed and left it a wee while. When I got up a while later, I realised that, no, someone hadn't ransacked my room.... my bed looked like this -
Yep! That's a pile of junk on my bed that spells out the word 'Hi'. I smiled, and then noticed that this was not the only thing different about my room... apparently my friends, Sarah and Jayne, who were at the DOE meeting had come into my room and left me little messages everywhere! Here's just a few -
Isn't it funny how it'll be the little things people do for you that make you smile the most? I love my friends!

Me duele el ojo. No estoy contento. Translation for all you non-wannabe Spaniards: My eye hurts. I'm not happy. Yeaahh, I have yet another eye infection although I cannot ever remember having one this bad before. It's rather... or very painful. So I have taken my lenses out (to avoid irritation) and have put sunglasses on instead (to avoid bright lights... or any light actually, I could happily live in the dark right now). These aren't prescription sunglasses so all I can see is a blur. Here, let me show you - below is what the above picture looks like without my glasses on. I don't think I've ever met someone with who has claimed to have worse eyesight than me... except for blind people. I pity them. 
I was back at the mighty Oasis. Walking into the building with my sunglasses on felt slightly odd, but everyone was very understanding. On second thoughts though... maybe not - "NOOO!! Don't take her sunglasses off or she'll DIE!!" Hmmmm. Interesting logic. Well my friends decided they would make me a makeshift bandage to put round my head and eye to make my life a little easier (I love my friends), but when they finished wrapping the, ahem, toilet paper around my head it looked like it was a bandage for a head wound. Of course my immediate reaction was "Draw blood on it and we'll freak out the next person who comes in!" I feel we were successful. =)
