A herd of elephants, a giraffe, and an African Fish Eagle near a watering hole in Etosha National Park.
The interior of the mosque dome. It will all be finished off somehow (plaster and paint I guess?) and look very different when it's done. I think the brick dome itself is quite impressive though!
This was a girl who is presently studing Animal Science at Uni. Her Mum wanted a cow, pig, horse, mouse, rat and a sheep laying on its back. Yes there is a story behind it.
"Brantwood is a country house in Cumbria, England, overlooking Coniston Water. It has been the home of a number of prominent people, including John Ruskin. The house and grounds are administered by a charitable trust, the house being a museum dedicated to Ruskin.
"In 1871 the house was sold to John Ruskin who it is claimed had never previously seen it. However, Kitchin and Ruskin were friends, having met at Oxford, so it is likely he may have had some prior knowledge of the property. Before Ruskin came to Brantwood in the following year, he arranged for repairs to the house, the addition of a turret, the building of a lodge for his valet and his family and for improvements to the garden.
"For a short time during his stay at Brantwood, Ruskin held tutorial sessions, what would be called today as teaching seminars. These were held three times each week and each day a different subject was covered, namely Art, Literature and Sociology. His evening assistant when he was absent was a Richard Hosken who had been a former student.
"When he was in residence, Ruskin filled the house with art, including paintings by Gainsborough, Turner and the Pre-Raphaelites and a collection of minerals, pottery and sea-shells. Ruskin was joined in the house by Arthur Severn, an artist married to Joan Agnew, his cousin and their growing family. A frequent visitor to the house was William Gershom Collingwood, painter, archaeologist and translator of Nordic sagas who lived nearby. In 1878 a new dining room was built at the south end of the house. A second storey was added around 1890 to provide additional rooms for the Severn family and a studio was built at the rear of the house for the use of Arthur Severn. During this time the estate was also extended."

I started back at TAFE today (my animal studies course).
When the teacher took the class role, and called my name, she said "oh.. Elyse.. I thought you had gotten into vet nursing?.."
To which I replied "Well, no one contacted me about it, no email, no phone call, no letter in the mail..."
*sigh*
So I'm not sure what happened there..
I do want to finish this Companion Animal Services certificate anyways.. which will finish up in June of this year. Then hopefully I'll be able to start Vet Nursing next year.
