Prayers

Hi all,

Can you please please pray for my friend chicken. She is going through a rough time at the moment and is taking her anger out on me. :( It's not fair I know but I'm asking God to help. All prayers will be appreciated.

God bless

Great News

woohoo I got into the college i wanted!! Finally all the waiting is over and it's official. I accepted my course on Monday and got all the paper work in the post this morning, now the trouble of filling it out. I am studying for a B.A in early childhood care and education ( I know a long name for a course). This will last for 4 years. here's the link if you want to take a peek http://www.mic.ul.ie/prospectivestudents/baecca.htm (click on the light blue points).

College is exciting but I am more sad about missing seeing all my friends in school. I suppose I'm lucky as the friends I am close to are all staying in the County but I won't see them everyday as I used to in school. I will miss especially seeing my best friend Chicken every day. I have a feeling she won't make an effort to see me as much in college but I'll wait and see what happens! Hopefully I will enjoy my course and make the best of it, all with God's help :)

im back

I really haven't wrote here in so long and I'm sorry :( But I have great news, I got the results I was hoping to get in my exams! I will know Monday or Tuesday if I have received a place in the college I am hoping to go to I can't wait. Thank you God for helping me!

I am also back from a brilliant holiday in Spain. It was very different to other holidays we have been on. I t was in a really traditional resort in Spain, a resort not commercialised or taken over by English and Irish tourists. The one downside though was the people, waiters etc. had little or no English! But we got by :)

I will put up pictures soon although I didn't take too many :(
God bless

Gospels


yesterday I finished the Gospel of Matthew, now I have started Mark. So far I am finding Mark's gospel far more easier than Matthews :) I love reading the Bible, I haven't read it much throughout my exams or after but now I am back "in the mood" for reading it :):)

God bless

Me

I know I haven't wrote here in a while and it's not because I don't have time-believe me I do!- I just don't really know what to write about anymore. I've kinda gotten lazy about writing about Religion (which is only a phase- don't worry) and people aren't really interested in hearing that all day I stay on the computer, watch TV, try to get a bit of exercise or meet up with friends.

One thing I will write about, and what I feel like writing about is confidence. Recently, meaning over the last 3 or 4 years, my confidence levels have dropped Way down. I was letting people walk all over me and never standing up for myself. I started to believe what people said and the word "can't" was used instead of I can. But recently I have been thinking a lot, why should I let people walk all over me? why should I tell myself and let others tell me I can't do something or that I will never be good at something? I shouldn't - it's not fair and it really doesn't help me in any way.

So this week I have started telling myself I can do whatever I want, I can achieve all my goals- why can't I? :) I won't let others put me down and obviously I have to do this for others too not calling them names or making them feel bad either.

As the saying goes "if you can't love yourself how can you love others". So here it goes I love myself LOL!

Holidays

I haven't wrote here in a while (sorry). I can't say I have been too busy because I spend most of my day either on the computer or at my friends house. Something really really confusing and weird is happening in my town at the moment (I will do a separate post on it) but all I'll say is to believe or not to believe? That is the question!

It's only 4 weeks until I get my results of the leaving cert!! I'm counting already! But I can't wait to see how I did.

I really can't think about anything else to write, my days have been "filled" with going on the computer, watching TV, cleaning or at my friends house...nothing that exciting.

Summer

I can finially relax and enjoy the summer! Being honest this isn't the best summer so far as I can't go to Chickens house and she can't come to mine :(. But we might be going away for the weekend woohoo!! 2 concerts one on friday and one on saturday. IF and only IF we are going (it's not definate) I hope the weather stays this warm!!! It will be a great weekend :):)

Recently I've just been at home, I still have my room to clean :(. I'm really not motivated to clean it. There are books and exam papers from my exams still lying around. I don't know whether I should keep them or not?!?

Anyway I'm enjoying this sun while it lasts!
God bless
