84

One of the trades at our school is Gardening...as in caretaker of commercial greenhouses etc. Among maaaany things they get to learn is flower arranging, and sometimes we get treated to some gorgeous arrangements on our cafeteria tables...

This is something not all students (eg. the teenage boys studying to become modern day lumberjacks/tree cutters) seem to appreciate...

I found this twig of eucalyptus outside in the snow, after having been pulled out from one of the cafeteria table decorations by someone who obviously didn't appreciate it's beauty.

I love Eucalyptus !!! So pretty and smells so nice. Maybe they just wanted to keep the green with them for a few more seconds so carried outside! Sounds like an incredibly interesting school you go to.

Staci - I love eucalyptus too...I used to have tried branches of it all over the house back in Canada, but it doesn't seem to be as commonly used here in Finland...so I haven't gotten around to actually getting some. Should get right onto that, since this little twig reminded me of just how much I love the stuff! :D And, yes...it's an interesting school with lots of different careers to study!
