April update

A very quick update on all things gap-yearable....

BUNAC's Gap Canada program opens in may which means I didn't miss it. I thought I had and was getting very worried.

I now have my DofE gold book. Scary. Needs to be filled.

Also, every photo I upload is now available for view in my Picasa page.
Gap Year of a Lifetime!
(Watch that coding mess up the blog).

Annnnnnnnnd nothing else.....
(nothing comes from nothing)

Duke of Edinboughurahrahrah

Or DofE for short!

I've taken part in DofE in the last few years and despite the fact I went for ... what seemed like a lifetime, I only got bronze done. I wanted to do silver but without sounding like a loser, I could never get silver because there was no team work! Just felt like it was me and one or two others.

Anyway, my group leader could see this and suggested that despite the fact I left, I should do the gold award in my gap-year!
And so I made the first step today and bought the correct gold book. £15 it cost me!!! £15! I could have spent that on snowboarding stuff or... or... 7 pints! Well the money is now out of my hands so I'm going to have to make it worth it.

My friends (or readerless blog, you decide), I am going to get my Gold Award and have tea with the royal family so put that in your spliff and smoke it!
