babo

well, i'm still in Glasgow.
everyone else (pretty much) is home noe for the holidays, but I'm in Glasgow at my aunts flat cos i gotta work. but its cool, i should actually get a fair amount of work done. my aim is to finish one of my assignments tomorrow and do the other two on friday and over the rest of the holidays. today, i wasted my working time making ad wrapping presents. more fun than work, but slightly less productive really... hmm..

anyway, merry christmas everybody, i'll see ya when i get home (think i'll be in st andrews for a bit christmas eve..)

bicycle tricycle take me far

I've had an ace wee while recently. I've got exciting plans and i did exciting things (well, for me, anyway).

so, most recent back, then forward:
today, i had a nav's prayer meeting at a very early time of the morning, which was good. then drama, which was fun, then i slept for about an hour and then went to comminuty studies. after that i went to Jules flat, and we had an ace evening. we cooked the best mince and potatoes and had a really good laugh, made a totally fabby powerpoint presentation which actually makes us roar with laughter every time. its hilarious. so that lasted from around 4.30 til 11.30. it was good. i now have the "jules mix" on my ipod from her ipod selection on her computer. its very nice.

so, yesterday, i had art, which was fun, then i made chocolate crispies cakes cos i was going to a navs sleepover at Nomy's... had a fairly productive afternoon doing not very much, but it was good. went to Nomy's and had great fun. gave the girls their cards, which went down well. didn't sleep enough.

day before- tuesday- i had no class, so i did quite alot of work on various things, which i was quite impressed about and then i sat and chatted to catherine for an hour or so, had christmas dinner in the refectory- nice! and then went to navs, which was lovely.. so nice to talk to folk and share in bible study.. we were talking about love (1 Peter 3.8-4.19, in case you were wondering) and suffering. anyway, when i got home, i decided i wanted to make my girls little cards with a wee message and a verse inside, so i made six little "friends" cards. this was at midnight, 1am... it was good.

Monday, i had class then i watched the videos from our music workshops. on the way out, i chatted to calum for a bit, which was nice and we both recieved the same text at about the same time, from bob telling us that he'd had a great day learning to drive a forklift truck... which is pretty cool. erm.. then i went to CU and did the tea and coffee with kirsten, and also brought in our home bakes- marzipan balls (v v v v good!) and mars bar crispie cakes- which went down a storm. it was a good evening. I spent a fair amount just me, which i enjoyed. about 11, i got a chap on my door telling me to put a boot outside it cos kendra had ordered it (tuesday was the 6th, st nicks day, when germans get a st nick present in a boot) so i did.. when i ventured to the bathroom later, i found a card and a bag of sweets, so i thought i would return the favour- therefore kendra got two mars bars anda card in one of my boots.. i think she appreciated it, i got a letter the next day.

Sunday, i went to vineyard for church, which i really enjoy, so that was cool. saw jim and jo, but not much chance to chat cos i was getting back so that kirsten and i could bake for CU which we did, amidst much hilarity. it was great. in the evening i went to go and see bob in glengarry glen ross, but it was all sold out, so i saw bondagers, but we met up afterwards and i met his girlfriend, treena, who seems nice.. so we all traipsed off to a totally random aftershow party at some girls flat. i met three new girls, all lovely, ailsa and two others who i can't quite remember. bob and i left anout 11.15, me to get a bus, him to go home to bed, but it was nice cos we got a wee chat and i'd not spoken to him in ages. so that was really cool.

Saturday, I was working, 3.30 onwards. the afternoon show was fine, although frank sinatra (rat pack was on) got ill during the show so they cut the second act and eventually pulled the evening show.. telling 1500 people that its off isn't exactly fun, but hey. we got off at 8.30 and got paid a full call.. :> :>

ok, so my plans for the future.. well, tomorrow (friday) i've got a few meetings with various class groups, which should be fine.. then i think i'm going to a music thing on campus, so that should be fun.. free wine.

Saturday, I'm looking forward to, cos i'm going into town, then i'm going to falkirk for the afternoon/evening, to see Pete and Iain.. YAY!! I'm excited. dunno what we'll do, but hey. thats part of the fun.

Sunday.. i guess I'm going to church and.. who knows? a week on sunday, it should be a nativity thing and the kids learnt a rap thing, its gonna be ace.

Monday.. nothing very exciting planned- an evening of christmas fun at CU.. should be good.

tuesday. navs has a panto on.. exciting!, no, really, i'm excited, :)

anyway, i'm gonna head to bed.. lovely chatting to you... xx (no, i haven't confused this with msn.)

you should check out my myspace:

i have another (sporadic) blog there too. also its just fun! become my friend!


also, i learnt some yoga on friday. it was fun. sleep now.

this started life as an email.. to whom? i don't know.

Ugh
I've had a sucky weekend. david and roz were up for bens birthday, and they were staying at bens. so i was gonna go out with them after i'd been to work, but no-one told me where they were going til too late, and since i wasn't in the mood to go to campus til 2 or 3am, i went home on my own. which was ok. the walk up was no scarier than ever before. colder but not scarier. saturday was good, to begin with. i met david and roz for coffee in beanscene (well, i stood at the tube, freezing for half an hour cos they missed their first bus) which was nice, we had a nice chat and they were thinking of staying at mine overnight. as it turned out, they didn't, cos ben didn't take the hint etc..anyway, i went to work, first shift was fine, but then i lost helena so i didn't go to cafe hula for good food, i got crap food (in comparison) from sainsburies. blugh. then the second shift was madness. kristi was ill. the dress bar was shut, so upper (where i was) was mobbed. i had to cash up progs, count ice creams etc very fast, then help pour interval drinks. then i worked on the bar in the interval. its hell. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
ggggggggggggggggggggggggggg
gggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

oh yeah, and i didn't get out til 10.45 and i had to wait til 11.30 to get my keys from roz and see them into the garage cos i didn't have enough money to go out and then get home. so that was pants.

church this morning was really good though, it was a good sermon and i got to chat to a load of folks i knew. so that was nice. went for lunch at whistlers mother with debbie and her friend.. then to beanscene (for a location change) to get h/choc and cheesecake.. got a bus to meet gokboz and scott to go to kirkie baptist evening service. today was good. i was just tired and kept feeling like i was missing out on something.

yesterday when i got home after work (at after 12) i came in to find that everyone had been to chaiovna and i was quite jealous. i really want to go and it was stupid and irrational but i wanted to tell people about it cos my friend mike told me. but i haven't even been. i just kinda felt like a total reject.

anyway.



I'm sorry if this doesn't make much or any sense, but i started writing an email, dunno who woulda recieved it, but anyway, its all been inflicted on you. there was no censure this time, so this might be more honest than several other posts...

oh yeah and when i was speaking to jim, he was like, "we were taslking about your tablet last night". (i gave calum tablet last week cos i was home and mum had made it so i bought lots from our little fairtrade market... also we talk about food quite a lot and i had said i'd bring calum some tablet.) so apparently the el dog boys talk about my antics during the week when they meet up. alan has an image (totally out of proportion,i'm sure!) of me doing a birthday dance for calum... i don't know if i should be worried that they talk about me or take it as a compliment... oh well.

so this post was in response to gordos plea for a post. i hope it comes up to scratch and i am sorry for not posting regularly... i'll get better i promise.

with my own two hands

wayhey..

so i had a fun day yesterday, i spent alot of it inside, either at the theatre (work) or at the cinema- which was great fun...

I've now seen Nanny McPhee, which is pretty class and Wallace and Gromit.. I'm so happy!!

Anyway, so, my mum was in the paper with Sir Cliff.. She went to london a couple of weeks ago to meet him, as he is a big cheese in tearfund, and sge was one of only twenty selected reps from the UK that got to see him. ONe of only three in scotland!! so i think she had fun..


anyway, think thats most of my news for just now...

i'm sleeping with fishes here

in the belly of the whale

I'm a bit annoyed. I was all set (sorta) to go out tonight, like after work and all, but then i ended up coming home and feeling disconnected from my friends. why?

ugh.
