'Hungry for..'

'Lamb stew in Onion...hold the garlic. And the arm of the man that spoke against me!'

Haha! I'm happy to have none of the above, thanks!

Time for an update?
No!

Watched a bit of 8 Mile tonight..Eminem reminded me of some of the guys I've seen at MJJC and it made me wonder..not so much 'if' I could work with them, but 'what' it would be like...what have they seen? What have they gone through? There was such hopelessness in his eyes and I'm the kind of person who might see that and feel hopeless myself. If I'm to work with these guys I'm going to want to be able to relate to them, but I'll have to keep my heart set on the hope that I have. I need to be strong. Damien was saying you need to be able to switch off, but I think that with God I can be very much switched on, yet kept intact.

If I keep sneezing like this I'll wake mum and dad.

Uploading a pdf. file - pamphlet for 'the great escape'. Send me around Australia; can we go tonight?

"Let's tell them all
assume they'll know
how very wrong they were
to think we'd never go..."

Which brings me to one dilemma that is in need of sorting: Uni placement. MJJC is looking like the one but the parents aren't happy and I can't afford to travel there and back every day, meaning I'll have to find someone living in the town to stay with. That's okay if I can find somewhere, but I don't like it when mum worries. But she'd do it anyway wouldn't she..? Even if I postponed this placement til next year, she'd still have the same concerns about it as she does now, probably. Although it would be one extra year for her to gain some confidence in me.

I shouldn't insist on my own way, though I can't stay put forever.

RESPECT.

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

Could that be one of my parents snoring? It sounds like an earth mover..


*making way over to the window..*

>>Imagine a long, suspenseful silence...<<

*opening window..peeling back curtains. Headlights. Our property? No..next door. A car..*


11:54pm and the neighbour is driving around on his property. Seems kinda pointless to me. What sort of hope does HE have? I'm reminded of the Addam's Family dad, insanely running his model train set. I can't remember what he was angry at.

Nearly sneezed again. I'd better go before I DO sneeze, or before my parents are awoken by this crazy 'night crawler'! Seems an expensive outlet.
