The Cross-Dressing Party on Friday was the perfect goodbye party for all of the students who left us last weekend. This event illustrated just how comfortable all the students had become with one another during their stay with us and highlighted the perfect melting-pot we had succeeded in creating within our multinational student community.
All the students were exceedingly enthusiastic about the theme of this rather special party and some had clearly put a lot of time and effort into designing their “look” for the evening. Both our male and female students let their imaginations run wild as they traded tips and swapped clothes. When they finally reached Oaklands House, many of them fashionably late, they strode in in some very daring outfits. Their confidence allowed them to pull off absolutely everything!
Girls sauntered in casually in jeans, trainers and baseball caps; their male counterparts tottered in in skirts, blouses, perfume and outlandishly bright high heels. In some cases, it was incredibly difficult to determine who was male and who female! Suspiciously, these transformations also seemed to be linked to the sudden and otherwise mysterious spiriting away of more than a few oranges and a surprisingly large amount of toilet paper from the boys’ toilets. It would be safe to say that all the students got very into their new genders – and the party, of course!
They danced the night away to a slightly altered playlist including brilliant classics such as Aqua’s “Barbie Girl” and James Blunt’s “Beautiful”. The beauty of the music spun its enchanting web over all the dancers present and led to the formation of some fun new “couples” for the evening.
It was simply amazing to witness the closeness of friendships between students of different nationalities and the easy way in which they all interacted with one another. We hope that the students who have now returned home will stay in touch with one another for some time to come and that all our new students will enjoy their stay just as much as their predecessors!
