Hello World-Outside-Melbourne. Welcome once again to another post by one of us people :D
Ok, first of all, my hosts' a lady. The vice-principal of University High School, in fact. So cool right! :D And seeing as her daughter's a Year 11 ( which means 17 years old this year), and her son's overseas, it is quite obvious that we don't have a buddy.
The Vice, Ms Thompson, is a really cool lady, who is kind and influential in the school. She's a very exciting and unconventional woman, not only showering us with hospitality, she also throws us surprises once in a while. She not only displays these traits at her workplace, she shows this on trips out of the area, around the city, and even out of town. Towards the Great Ocean Road! :D
Her daughter, Megan, a Year 11, is a kind, and quiet girl, older than us, but she took great care of us, providing and guiding us on trips around the city, and home after school. She gave us presents ( shhh! CHEWING GUM!(: ), and was really hospitable.
The Vice's husband, Alan, is a funny and amusing man, with a charming personality and great humour. He's a knowledgable man, working as the top editor for a newspaper company called Herald Sun. Amazing huh. In fact, his paper came out on Sunday, and he was working hard on it on Saturday night, so we didn't get to see him till the next day. However! we got a good surprise when we saw him. His character so welcoming, so hospitable. If i were a female i'd fall in love with him ( It's a figure of speech. )
It is a great feat to be able to achieve the great status that this family has been able to attain. I'm sure that it wasn't only due to chance and a little nudge by supernatural powers, it would also have been due to their amazing skill and ability to succeed ( application of school value here =p ), coupled with their wonderful talents and hardwork. These definitely played a part in their able to attain such a high post.
As I have realized, and i'm sure you would agree with me, good attitude towards others, and your character definitely plays a part in the good life they have. A little smile, and pat on the back, a good joke, is enough to make the day for anyone, and this is exactly what they have been doing. Their hospitality is a reflection of their kindness, their graciousness as a host, and their good qualities one cannot number.
In the working world, not only is talent valued, your character is a defining factor as to whether you get the post or not, and i'm sure that my hosts, the gracious Mr and Ms Thompson along with their daughter Megan, have been displaying their hospitality and good character.
These are definite learning points one can draw from my hosts.
♥Another Day In MELBOURNE♥
