You're climbing Ben Nevis?!?! Amaaazing!! I want to climb it too!! When are you doing it? Tis the best feeling when you reach the top! Only tip is 'mind over matter'. You just gota mentally prepare yourself to keep going no matter how horrible it gets. The only way you'll feel proud of completing it, is if it was really really hard to do. It's supposed to be hard- otherwise there's no point in doing it!
Loving your "feet" joke- haha! I'm getting quite excited now- knowing that I'm jet setting to the east coast with Georgie tomorrow night to go world class diving- should be great!
Missing you lots- so so soo can't wait for a good Italian meal together when I get home!! xxx

Hello Kirsty
What a feat (feet) to have climbed this humungeous mountain. I am so proud. I hope your legs have recovered.
I'm climbing Ben Nevis (a mere pimple!!) soon, so can you give me some tips?
Not long to go now till Rosie gets out. I'm going to see her before she goes.
I hope all is well this week. xxxx

Kirsty, the new kittens might well all be from one litter. The mum may well have been in the process of moving them when you found them alone. I really think you should wait to see if she does come back for them before getting involved.
Mum
Leave them where they are! Their Mum will most likely return, if not they've probably had it anyway.

Cool mum, would phone you to ask about the form but I don't have any credit. Phone me if you can. There's also been a kitten dilemna- on the way up to the ICT room to use the comp- I heard major meeowing and found 2 new litters of kittens hidden away. One had a mum, so I presume they'll be ok, but theres 4 brand new borns stuck behind a cupboard in a classroom and I don't know where their mummy is and I don't know what to doo. I'm scared the teacher might find them tomorrow and do something nasty with them :-( Do I take them back to the asrama or what? Cause the mum might come back for them- I don't know.
Mum
Just to let you know that the accommodation forms for Dundee have come today, I will complete them today and get them in the post. O.K. xxxxxxxxxxx

Aww, so nice getting such positive posts from everyone! The mountain really was awesome and I'm glad to say my muscles are on the mend, I managed to get up the stairs in less than 5 minutes this time! I tried uploading my photos twice last night but I'm afraid it didn't want to work. But just wait until you see them- even though they don't do the sunrise justice (since I was too busy looking at it to take any decent pics!), it gives you an idea of how unbelieveably gorgeous the views were.
And to answer to your posts-
Sarah- Sounds like ur havin an awesome time in Cambod, if we don't manage to bump into each other in Vietnam, I gota take a little trip down to Londers to see ya. I did the mountain with Aman, Georgie and Catherine- was rokin. Paying for it now in the old thighs, but it was so worth it. Hopefully cya before ya head hoome!
Cat- good luck for your exams! Its weird how your year has gone so fast but mine seems like a lifetime! I do agree, that amount of offers in the space of 24hr does sound a bit more than coincidence. Let me know how the exams go!
Kerry+Duncs- ta moocho, feelin loads better now, can't wait till I upload the pics for everyone to see.
Rosie- so cool your keepin updated with my stuff. Tis nice to know I'm not blabbin on to myself all the time! hehe. Tis excitin ur finishing school and I'm sure Greenland will be awesome! Good luck with the work ur doin too!
And mammy- as I'm sure you know my muscles are feelin a bit better today so they should be ab fab by tomorrow. So it's a go ahead for diving with Georgie this weekend, which is coool. Georgie's havin a tough time back at her school, so I think she's gona coe and crash with me and Aman for a week, after we finish diving. Or she's thinking about doing the Phillippines. Will get my photos uploaded ASAP. xx

Kerry

Mum
Well done Kirsty! What an achievement to reach the summit of Mt Kinabalu. Read the postcard everyone, it may well be lengthy, but it's worth it! Hope you have recovered now and are back to health and fitness, no more excuses for skipping classes! lots of love xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hey! Hope things are going ok :-) Things are crazy on this end - 3 weeks of 1st year left (noooooooooooo!!!!), and depending on whether or not the AUT stop striking in time, it looks like I'm going to have some exams in that time. My 1st one is on 9.30am on Sat morning - SATURDAY???? 9.30AM?????? They assure us that time DOES exist tho. Will let you know my summer adventures just as soon as I work out what's happening - is totally crazy - having been REALLY down, mostly cos I hadn't found anything for the summer, I got offered 11 different things to do, in the space of 24 hrs! I know you're not religious, but it sounds like waaaay more than a coincidence to me. So, now have to work out dates, costs and travel! Now have to start revising :-( If they don't mark these exams I'm going to be none too chuffed! :-) Cat
