It was our department's Away Day today.. was telling my mom and dad that I was going to some country club for it.. meetings all day.. boring stuff... well.. unbeknown to me.. Ross Priory (which is where we were) is this amazing place just on the banks of Loch Lomond!
Loch Lomond is one of Scotland's famous loch (lake)(And no, its not where Nessie stays, if you were wondering) We could see Ben Lomand, which is a mountain in the Scottish Highland... not sure if you can see it in the pictures.. didn realise that was Ben Lomond until I was told to be honest. Didn even know it was Loch Lomond till I was told!! hahahha...
isnt it picturesque...
Well this is where we were for most of the day...
After the meetings were all done... the Profs and lecturers wanted to go play some golf. Ross Priory has a 9 hole golf course and it was pretty much empty!
WELL...
Ive only been to the range to actually hit a couple of balls ONCE..
Everyone was going to play and there was actually absolutely nothing else to do and kinda got talked into playing hahha...
another tick on my "Try Everything Once List", one of the years I made a new years resolution that I would give everything a try once.. to there you go, tried golf both on a course and at the range.. ticked
We got into 2 groups.. the 'serious golfers' and the 'mucking abt golfers'... no prizes for guessing which group I was in hahaha... and I had to play in this!
Haha.. But I must say I had a blast!!! hahah my Psychology lecturer was the one giving me pointers and making fun of me... At least I got the ball to travel~! hahaha I wasnt THAT bad.. It being my first time actually playing, well if you could call it playing hahaha... probably took like 7 'whacks' on a par 4~!!! hahaha.. thank god the course was empty once we let the 'serious golfer' go first... hee..
Psychology lecturers giving each other pointers...
Me patiently waiting for my turn...
Haha it was fun.. laughed a great deal, at and with each other haha.. think I'll stick to my kinda sport which Im better at.. leave it to the professionals hahah...
I must add... my alarm clock didn quite ring this morning, so I literally had 5 mins to get my teeth brushed, get changed and run to the train station... so I didn have time to think of what to wear.. just threw on what ever I could get my hands on and wore what ever shoes that were just at the door.. haha some of u might wonder, she's still wearing those fugly crocs.. I must say they are the most comfy things plus they are well travelled...
Desperately trying to keep my eyes open at the moment.. its only 8.40pm.. but I might surrender soon and just hit the sack.. its gonna be another long day tmr...
*yawn*
