I was thinking about stuff last night. Circumstances dictates who we are. We are all brought up in such different situations. Found out more about people's lives last night, and i thought, its events in our lives that shape who we really are. Some have good family background, well brought up with morals, as such fit into the social norm. Some learn to treasure things in their lives.

everyone is so drastically different. though I know I dont get along with some, I'm gonna try to empathize. To see where everyone is coming from.

Glad to know that family is treasured. pleasant surprise. (:

Last few days have been crazy.

Hanging out till late,

Waking up early to do work.

(: Wednesday I was completely knackered after training and tiger tiger. So, I slept at 8.30pm.

Then I woke up at 5am to do my work. (: Was a nice day. had a good sleep and I was energised for school.

I was crazy enough to stay up till like 1am. thats 20 hrs i was awake. how coool.

slept and woke up late on friday morning. Watched Slumdog Millionaire in Anna's room till 11. then Dirty Dancing till 12 plus. We then went to The Rocket with Rob, Gez, Tim, Mared, Sabina. (: some got completely smashed. but rob was smashed before he even started.

went back around 2ish. then went to rob's room to play guitar and watch monty python. fun.

Woke up at 10, was too lazy to go for training. stayed in hall to study. (: I really enjoyed reading and studying in the conservatory. then at night, we went to cittie of york. Met Ida's brother! (: HE LOOKS LIKE NICKHUN! omg. hahaha. Was fun! ((: talked quite a bit.

then went to O'neils. was quite funny with the penny in the guinness. went back, played pranks on Tim, sat at the staircase got chased off, went to Joe's room to watch tv. (:

Slept 3. with daylight savings.

Liverpool won. its cool. Rob is so happy. after 4 games of misfortune its about time so, I'm whatever. (:

Today I went to church. I felt so happy. I started the day reading my bible. then to service. (: at the end, I really felt God's presence. Really really felt Him. Has been a long time since I came here. Praise God. ((: I like HTB.

<3>

Life's been alright. Thank God for His blessings really. For the awesome group in hall, though we dont always hang out, they are good fun! (:

Plymouth was FUN! I really love playing frisbee. Really must thank God. My knee was hurting quite badly but each time i start a new match, it stops hurting till after the game.

the second night, it was just so bad i couldnt walk properly.

The party at Lemon's house was awesome. We had a Barbeque on his rooftop. had the view of the sea, nice awesome burgers and stuff. was just cool. later at night we then went to the Frisbee party near his place. At first it was alright. there was this drink called kryptonite and it tastes awesome. Then my team mates started getting drunk. That was horrible. I totally didnt know what to do, so i just sat outside the club waiting for them. Its in this situation that I finally realised, what kind of life I totally wouldnt want to lead. Its just so decadent. And i sat outside, just thinking about thing. and I really was so disturbed by what I was seeing. Call me conservative or whatever.

I remembered saying thank God for my hall mates. Though they get drunk, they dont lose themselves and make others be responsible for them. so. Thank God for them.

In any case, I love the sport. We lost terribly but considering how often we trained and how many people we had on the team, we were disadvantaged. (:

Oh well. school has been alright. starting to get into the swing of things. Reading, Looking up stuff at the library, buying books to start reading. Its all Good.

All I need to do now, is to find a church, settle down, find a cell. I just feel so strange now without cell, or FCBC. Im missing it incredibly. Family Friends Cell. My life used to almost rotate around church only. and Now, without it, I feel a little strange.

But all's good. (: Praise God

Turn Your eyes upon Jesus

Look full in His wonderful face

and the things of earth will grow strangely dim

in the light of His Glory and Grace. (:

The full swing of school just started.

Gone are the days, where I just sit around, Facebooking, reading useless information online,

chilling at Starbucks, Shopping and just planning the next day to fill up time.

8 hours a week.

not alot i would say.

but Im expected to do alot of self reading.

Modules : Writing in London, Language in Time, Reading Poetry, Introducing Literary Theory.

Introducing Theory encompasses the writing of an essay every week.

thats not too bad. considering in JC we wrote like 3- 4 essays a week for different subjects.

yeah, but I'm still not used studying yet.

Last night, i went to the study room with Dara from like 7.30 till 11.

only managed to finish 2 readings and the essay.

Oh well, i have to start waking up early for breakfast and get work done in the morning too.

Spend my free days doing readings and starting early on the essay so I dont have to worry about it so much the day before.

Nice to see the group of us in hall starting to study. (: starting from them drinking less. no more Rob-Style drinking till weekends.

I have yet to find a cell group, or properly settle down in a church.

Im beginning to feel a little detached from the community of God.

I need to quickly settle down in one.
