Summer

Toffer stole my jumper. Even though it's a privately educated jumper, and private education goes against all that he believes to be fair. He was cold apparently. And admittedly it was quite chilly out, especially after the past few days have been incredibly hot. So, like the gentleman he ought to be, I handed over my rugby top and then proceeded to laugh at for him for wearing a girl's jumper. He ignored the mocking, so I put a message on the college intranet about it. Muhahaha!!!

The sun has come out now though and it looks like it'll be another scorcher of a day. I would like a nice cool breeze, but this is England, the weather is never how we would like it. I like rain, but then everyone else would be miserable. My legs could be a danger to summer drivers - the sun shines on my legs, the sheer whiteness of them blinds everyone around, and before I know it cars are swerving all over the place. Maybe I should fake tan for the sake of road safety?

We're going away this evening for the Christian Union weekend away. Very much looking forward to it, but it will be my last one. V.sad. I remember my first. We went to Bournemouth and I fell off a climbing frame. That was when I first made friends with Jo. 2 years of friendship and we're best friends all because of Xtreme death fall, copious cups of tea, Comedy and a few relationship issues. And to think, before that I always thought she was just the girl who walked past my house and never smiled. How wrong I was! I laugh more with Jo than with a lot of other people. But she's not going this weekend. There's a really good guy speaking at her church on Sunday so she's staying to hear him. I will miss her. But, I'll hang out with the boys, so that will be fun too.

Phew

Nowhere near as bad as I anticipated. I said what I needed to say, but not in the way I thought I would. That's what comes from praying desperately beforehand. And we're friends again. There were promises of change and I look forward to their fulfillment :)

God is Good

So, when God starts moving satan doesn't like it and starts fighting back. Good things have been going on in my house, with two of my housemates coming to church, and one of them coming to prayer meetings and a baptism, and saying she would like to get baptised one day. It's so EXCITING!!! I've been praying for this for the whole time I've known these guys and just when I'd started to give up hope and think I'd failed God reminded me that He is in charge and WOW! Praise the Lord I say :) But like I said, the devil's giving me a hard time over it. I know with God's strength I'll pull through and it won't seem so bad later on, but I'm being hit right at my weak point - friends and confrontation. I feel like I'm being bullied by a friend and it's crappy, but God's got it sorted, thank goodness.

Doing Cell evangelism tomorrow evening - I'm cooking, and it looks like Andy and I are doing the talk too - scary, but exciting too, so I'm off to sort that out now, and then I get to have a really nice chat (Yes, I'm being sarcastic) with the bully.
