SLIGHTLY ODWAY...

i'm not sure if i enjoy blogging that much anymore. t'was the biggest novelty for a while there hey. maybe it's that we just get all blogged-out...
or bogged-down in our own busy-ness...
we're just blogged-down...

anyway, i now have a sure direction of what this year shall involve. this morning i got into Christian City Church School of Creative Arts (the vocals and worship leading course), so that's great.
and now i can work out how to best use the rest of my time. and i dont have to worry about the fact that i didn't change my uni preferences to apply for suitable courses (coz i was too lazy to get my act together), which is fantastic coz i didn't really want to go to uni anyway.
i like being extremely busy, coz you get to enjoy those days of doing nothing at home so much more. and it's almost a relief when people bail on you, coz you get to catch up on sleep, emails, reading, guitaring, writing, phoning people, organising more outtings...
i went and bought myself another diary the other day. it's much better, even though there isn't much space to write. and th'smorning i spent time filling it in and i'm feeling quite organised in that area at the moment.
organised is exciting when you know that there could be a massive mess everywhere, but then you've kinda kept a bit on top of it and you get this satisfied feeling. it's good

this weekend is an ernie leader's retreat. it's amusing using the word retreat, coz it makes it sound like we're verging on the edge of defeat and must run away to save ourselves. but maybe it also has that noble impliance that we've been on the forefront of battle, fighting against attacks from satan to protect and nurture the youth. anyway, it should be fun. it feels a bit randomly spontanious, but that's ok.
i'm intrigued to see where God is leading the young people in our church, and i'm excited to be part of that - encouraging, supporting and spirring 'em on.

you know what, it really doesn't feel like 4:30pm. i think i better go get ready sometime soon. i got a ton to do before i go away...

i'm chuffed
spent the day with one of the girls i led last year and had a ball playing soccer, eating icecream and chatting about tons of stuff. i like days like this.
and afterward, i went through some triple g stuff and ernie stuff and music stuff and a few other oddities at church, which has been fantastic to get done.
yet i think it's a little funny how, after a humid day of playing outside, you sit down for a while afterwards to take it easy and begin to sense the beautiful (cough) aromas arising from your body. i think maybe a shower is in order...
and food...

i'm so excited bout going to soul survivor melbourne! it's just come up so quickly and suddenly i realise that it's tomorrow. had to do a quick checking of emails and now a quick blog to say farewell.
i like the library. i like the sound of little kids unsuccessfully trying to be quiet as their mothers read them dramatically simple stories about rabbits and shaggy dogs and far-away places. kids are great. this little dude came up to the counter at work today and it was so cute, he had no idea what to say and just stood there. gorgeous.
talking about kids - CONGRATULATIONS GELDO! Joel Matthew Gelding was born yesterday morning. fantastic i say!
anyhew, i'm going home to pack now. cheerio

why hello there...
and happy new year - i know i know, a bit late...
anyhew, i actually dont know why i have found myself here once again. i have no desire to blog right now. the blogging world has departed. literally. all the hornsbyites and a few belrosians have all embarked on this road trip, and i'm left here all alone.
i'm just kiddin. i'm thinking that the road trippers will become lonely without their precious blogs, so we'll prolly hear from them soon, if we haven't already...
in other news, we have a full house at home once again. finally. it's strange to think that maybe i do have siblings...
oh, and i really did stuff my puter this time. it wont even turn on.
but enough of my downism-ness, i'm off to work...
