I'm scared.....need to study study study study!

Squished Cat

I had a super sleep in this morning. And it was made even sweeter by the fact that I haven't had a sleep in for weeks because of this thing I choose to do called Uni.

I woke up this morning at 12:27 by a loud screeching cat. Seems that in my deep sleep I turned over and squashed the living daylights out of my cat.

poor kitty.

Also went to the aquarium yesterday with nathan, was so much fun! We found out that my camera can take heaps of photos in a row so have cool sequence of nathan doing a cartwheel (better than I ever could) and me blowing a kiss at the camera.

So happy that I was able to do that without feeling guilty because I should be doing study, since all my assessments are over :D!

Yay. Can't wait til holidays.

19

So yeah. It was my birthday today. I have officially joined the abyss that is 19. Because this is what I think.

18 = cool
19 = abyss
20 = freaky
21 = cool

Thus I am currently in the abyss, but I don't mind it too much. Apart from the fact that I am starting to do old person things like stay in and play gameboard games then go out clubbing with all the crazy hooligans.

I do think I am mentally aging though. I have proof too.

I woke up two nights ago suddenly because I felt a wetness on my arm. In the dark I thought that the cat might have peed on me (which she NEVER has done, so I was pretty shocked) but then when switching on the light I noticed a wet patch in my lap area. Now I know what you are thinking and no I did not wet my pants. As I pulled back the cover I realised that I had placed the glass of water I sometimes keep on my bed side table in the middle of my lap and the only explanation was that I did it in my sleep.

I was dreaming about being in a restaurant so it isn't too suprising.

Still...what is this crazy abyss that I have entered!?

Samson and Me

I have been doing this daily reading plan of the bible that gives you an overview of each book of the Bible. Last night I was up to Judges reading about Samson, and I always seem to have massive problems with Samson. He is blessed with the Spirit of God and is given great power, yet he chooses to marry two women that do not worship God and then sleep with a prostitute between those marriages and is extremely violent.

I decided that I might have to read a commentary to see how this could relate to me today and how this relates to God's plan to bring Jesus to the world to die for the worlds sins. So I found this.

The Lord permits some few to wander wide and sink deep, yet he recovers them at last, and marking his displeasure at sin in their severe temporal sufferings, preserves them from sinking into the pit of destruction. Hypocrites may abuse these examples, and infidels mock at them, but true Christians will thereby be rendered more humble, watchful, and circumspect; more simple in their dependence on the Lord, more fervent in prayer to be kept from falling, and in praise for being preserved; and, if they fall, they will be kept from sinking into despair. (Jdg 16:25-31)

For at the end of Samson life, he realises all that he has done and he comes to God and finds grace and peace in him, despite all his wrongdoings.

Now I see Samson more in myself than ever before. For I truly have sunk low and tried to run from God, but he recovered me, I now feel I am more humble than I was before and am filled every day with praise from being rescued from my sin, not just yesterday or today, but every day of my life.

Casey quotes

"Is Jimi Hendrix normally black?"

I love it when...

I am lying in bed in the morning listening to the rain fall, with no reason to get up.

Spider returns...intoxicated?

The same spider was on the door the next night...shudder.

Oh and I got my RSA and am now terrified of serving intoxicated people and/or minors.

Maybe I should just not get a job...yes I like the sound of that.
