blogging every 10seconds cept when im sleeping!

the title is cause of what hairy wrote on his blog about me blogging! it made me laugh quite a lot so thought that is what i would title this. dont worry this blog going to be a short one. school wasnt too bad today - i was cooking for the first two lessons - made samaosas! i got one more practical to do and all my dt coursework practical work is COMPLETE!!! im well happy about that! the other three lessons of the day were nothing exciting. but the days been ok.

everyone ive been talking to is finding everything is getting on top of them at the moment, school + social life just everything! i think its cos we all need a break and are stressed out! exams start in 2days! first exam is english lit. i dont think that will be too bad...ive had so many practice essays to write already. the exams im worried about at my writing spanish exam,maths and science! the rest im not too worried about.

well hope everyone is doing alright x x x

be my everything....

when praying today at school.....something sunk into place. God is above and beyond understanding. when i have a problem there is NOTHING i am not going to be able to get through as God would not cast that upon me. God knows everything i am experiencing and he understands everything...there is not anything in which he does not understand. i really pray God would be my everything. i pray that these words would be true in my life....

God in my living, there in my breathing,
God in my waking, God in my sleeping,
God in my resting, there in my working,
God in my thinking, God in my speaking.

be my everything,
be my everything,
be my everything,
be my everything......

God in my hoping, there in my dreaming,
God in my watching, God in my waiting,
God in my laughing, there in my grieveing,
God in my hurting, God in my healing.

be my everything,
be my everything,
be my everything,
be my everything......

Christ in me,
Christ in me,
Christ in me the hope and glory - you are everything.
Chrst in me,
Christ in me the hope of glory,
be my everything.....

you are everything,
you are everything,
you are everything,
you are everything,
Jesus everything,
Jesus everything,
Jesus everything....Jesus everything

today has been quite a good day...ive spoken to my english teacher about how im gunna get a B in my exam and she said if we work together she in confident i will be able to do it. it was so pleasing to hear that....i really am working so hard, i really want to get a B. i got my college application form today. so i need to fill that in. school was ok as a whole though....im not the only one who is feeling that the atmosphere isnt a pleasnt one. other people who ive spoken to are feeling that as well. today when praying we prayed the next 3weeks would be good and everyone would relax and no one would get stressed.

the leaders meeting last night was really good. i got a lot out of it. and was glad i went. i love hearing how God is working in the youth of church. its so encouraging especially as im still part of the older youth group.

Hairy - thanks for what you wrote mate.....it encouraging.

the weeks are going faster and faster. its quite scary. in a month christmas will have been and gone. where is the time going?!!? by the end of this week i think i will have finished my practical work in dt. im making 2 food products tomorrow and i will have 1 left to make which i think i am going to make in my lesson on friday!

ive wanted to leave school for so long....i still do....but its strange....as the days go by....i think about it...its another day less of spending time with the people in my year. its another day less of each lesson....its another day less of been in school. it really has started to go so fast. we got our year photo today....thats the last ever year photo at school. im definatly going to buy it.

its the weekend again soon! im looking forward to this weekend....im going out with jessica during the day on saturday and in the evening i am off to see the panto at LCF which could be really good. my friend naomi who is coming to the panto is sleeping over saturday night and i think coming church with me on sunday morning. so this weekend will be a good one!! in a week on sunday im gunna be on TV!!! its songs of praise!

think im going out for dinner with mum and dad tonight which will be nice and then maybe go see my brother at his as i aint seen him in about a week!

Father, i pray that i remember that in troubled times you are always going to be there. you will never leave me. i pray that i praise you for the good times and ask for your help and protection in the bad times. you are an awesome God. you would have sent your son to die for me even if it was just me in this world. you love me unconditionaly and i am sorry from the bottom of my heart when i have said or thought bad things against others. Father, you are always always there, every how and every where and i pray i remember that. i thank you that i have some really amazing friends, true friends, and i thank you for bringing those people into my life. i pray i really live my faith and not by sight for you. i pray in troubled times i know your carrying me in your arms and in good times you are walking along side me. i pray as my exams approach you take away the nerves. i thank you that i am doing revision and i pray i continue to revise for my exams until they are done. Father i thank you for the great times ive had over the weekend....and i thank you for really showing me your there. i thank you that your grace has found me just as i am....empty handed but im not in your hands. i thank you that i am changed by your love. i pray Father that i reach out to those who dont know you and i pray this would be the year, the school year where i make a real difference in peoples lives. Father ive done things im not proud of, but i know you have forgiven and forgotten because i have repented and said sorry. Father i pray as this week continues i continue to have a good week and i pray you continue to soften my heart.

amen x x x

well this is quite a long blog....hope everyone doing ok x x x

admit it

last night...that person ive fallen out with called me....i didnt answer....he text me.....i didnt reply. it was late, and i needed my space. theres a reason ive ive given this the title i have. today i got so stressed at school, first lesson - science, we have one pretty rubbish teacher...im not learning much in his lessons as he isnt really teaching us and i told him, he didnt have an answer, it really wound me up, our mocks are starting on friday, our GCSEs are 5months away - i wanna learn and do my best on the exams. i want so badly to pass all my subjects. anyway i was feeling quite stressed. the interview thing was after break....i spoke to them about science, and it was such a good chat. the interview as a whole was so benifical. i got so much out of it, the space of 5mins and those 5mins were great...i really am more motivated to do well....

but i realised.....i am worried about my exams. i am feeling stressed. i have the stress from this arguement upon me as well. 3weeks today...the exams are over....it will nearly be the holiday....il feel relaxed. but right now i realised i just need space from this person, at least until after my exams, when i can have time to reflect.

id really appreciate it if you could pray for me over the next couple of weeks.

thanks x x x

you are the way, the truth and the light.....

....we live by faith and not by sight for you. that was on my heart as i got to church tonight, me and tasha prayed together and when she was praying for me she said that. i really felt thats what God was saying to me tonight, i know its true but because the last few weeks have had there ups and downs sometimes ive forgotten it. but the last 3days have been AMAZING. God has touched me in so many ways. praying at tashas on friday....the briscoe celebration last night....TGIs this morning.....church tonight. God really has showed me this weekend he is ALWAYS there.

i got a lot out of church, we watched a video insted of the sermon. the video was about the journey of life. the journey of a baby to a grown man. from life to death. the beautiful things which are in this world. who created the beautiful things like nature? what happens when we die? how did the stars get in the sky? those where some of the questions on the video. it ended, we can believe it just happened and have nothing or believe in God and have everything. then Andy prayed....he also said, dont get on a train without knowing where it goes....we need to know where we are on our journey with God.

the person i needed to show grace to....il be honest....i didnt do it. i am praying God prepares my heart to love him again. but i have so much anger and upset aimed at him at the moment that its hard. i just need my space and time to reflect. i prayed about him tonight though. its difficult....i think back of the good times we have had, the laughs and the cries we have shared and deep down i want to forgive him....but its going to take a lot to do it, its not the first time hes hurt me in the space of 3months and i know it wont be the last....but i do want to forgive him....i pray as the weeks go on i can show him grace.

my mocks start on friday...i know they are only mocks but im well worried about them! not all the subjects, but maths and science particularly! but im revising and thats all i can do. i have an interview with my headteacher and head of year tomorrow. everyone in year11 is having it, to discuss our exams and our future...i also have JSLA(junior sport leadership award) i hate pe! but i have it in the afternoon tomorrow, teaching year1s pe, but they will be cute so im not that fussed about it!

well im off to bed....am rather tired. good night everyone! have a great week x x x

grace

thats what we talked about this morning in TGIS. it made me think about a situation ive got with a friend. i fell out with him a couple of weeks ago and i thought it was sorted but it appears its not. he text me last night a 3message txt and i didnt reply so he sent it again 3hours later, i still havent replied. i am hurt,upset and angry at him, i know i need to show him grace, thats something i realised this morning. we dont deserve grace but God has given it to us. we need to be graceful to others around us. i need to be graceful to this guy. im really praying i will show him grace tonight when i see him.....

on another note - TGIS was really good this morning, i had the girl in my group that ive been praying for and she wasnt participating to start with but then she did. i was so glad she was taking part, it was such a answer to prayer.

well im off to my nans and then im meeting jessica so il write on here later x x x

prayer is powerful

well i went round tashas 2night. it was one of the best nights ive had in quite a while. me and tasha used to always chill on friday nights but now cos of me having rocksolid every other friday we havent chilled out on friday night in ages. so i arrived at hers and we went to the chippy and asda, got some chocolate and crisps and went back to hers to chill. we were listening to a cd and felt it would be right to pray about the words for one song as it made both of us think of certain people. so we put the song on repeat and ended up praying for 45mins. we werre just gunna pray about the certain situations we are both in but it ended up us praying about everything.

whilst praying i could really feel the Holy Spirit and felt at peace after. the main thing in which we were praying about for me --> Tasha really felt God saying confusion. so she prayed for the confusion which could be in the situation i wanted to pray for. and i prayed for tasha about things she wanted prayer for. aswell as us both praying about other things on our hearts.

was a great night and really powerful. God was definatly with us tonight.

amazing

i havent blogged for ages about the guy i made friends with in spain last year....well to cut a long story short - i havent spoke or heard from him in a year. ive heard about him though, just how he was when we went spain again this year. but he wasnt there. however a lady who was a waitress at the hotel both last year and this year was. mums kept in touch with her and i didnt know that mum had emailed her 2days ago. but last night whilst i was on the phone to tasha, mum ran upstairs to tell me this lady had emailed her! i was quite surprised. she had written briefly in the email about this guy.....he had told her to say sorry for not being in contact but his studies have been really busy and therefore his email has closed down! NEVER doubt the power of prayer. the tears ive cried about this guy and the times ive prayed, but then i gave up praying about it. but i have now had a message from him after a whole year. God is awesome.

i was texting christine today - it has made me think about another situation and how now i really must trust God with it. what ever happens in this situation happens. im now handing it over to God as i know i need to. although ive been praying about this situation, i havent handed it to God. and now that is what i am going to do. im going to trust God with it and leave it in his hands.

someone emailed me today aswell. i havent heard from her in quite a while and it was so special to get an email from her and everything she wrote was so meaningful. it really put a big smile on my face because the situation i am handing to God she has been with me since the beginning.

Our God is an awesome God. NEVER doubt what prayer can do and TRUST 100%

mix and match

the title is quite random but this is about loads of different things....!

this week has had its ups and downs so far!! school has been alright - nothing amazing, i really am in need of a break and its 4weeks today until i break up for christmas!! next friday my mocks start which i am a bit worried about but once they are over i can relax for a few weeks before starting to revise for my GCSES. you may call me a geek starting revision so early but i wanna revise sooner rather than later so that what i need to learn sticks! and im not in a rush to do it! got my GCSE timetable on monday!! i have most of my rubbish subjects at the begining which personally i think is quite good as they will be out of the way! and my last exam in dt - food, which is my best subject so a nice exam to end on! but enough about that....its not til may/june!

outside of school is ok-something annoyed me a bit on monday and quite upset me but i dont really wanna write about it. yesterday i went to a bodyshop party which was great and a lot of fun. i really enjoyed it and mum came aswell which was cool, she has brought some things but i dunno what - i wasnt really paying attention. Tgis are so encouraging - i am really enjoying doing their group - the relationships ive got with the young people is great and im really grateful to God about the friendships ive started to build up.

ive started to talk to an ex-boyfriend of mine - i think i wrote about this about a week ago....well anyway we hadnt spoken in 3months and now are talking again. its so strange to think back to 2years ago when we first got together and then how things turned out between us and the arguements nd how he hurt me. im glad though that me and him are talking again. i think we needed a break from eachother and from contacting each other and we both have grown up so much now. we still gotta work at our friendship, but im praying about it and just glad that slowly things are getting better as he was a really good friend and it was upsetting to lose him as a mate.

does anyone ever find it hard when they have drifted from someone they were really close to for a long while and although things arent to bad unlike how they were before you still find yourself giving off negetive vibes because they really hurt you and although you have sorted it out, theres a part of you still hurting and you find yourself very distant from them.....
im listening to fix you by coldplay at the min....i love this song....it has memories of happy times with me and my friends,some people reading this may be able to realate to what im saying here....thinking back when i first heard this song...and then thinking of all the times it has been on and has been sung when ive been with a certain group of mates, the 5of us havent hung out just us for ages....i really miss those days....

its ment to snow tomorrow and friday! wonder if it does....i hope its a snow day if it does snow!

thats enough from me, this blog is rather long again sorry! x x x

take time and look around......

lately ive noticed quite a lot, just by sitting and watching insted of joinning.....

everyone always judges one another, everyone creates issues that dont need to arise, everyone talks behind one anothers back. im not saying that im not guilty of this, im just saying it affects me + hurts me and i can really see how it affects others.

when surrounded all day by this sort of attitude in school it starts to become irratating. school is full of mixed emotion, taking time to watch, you see some happy others sad, some company others lonely, some laughing others crying and so on.....

sorry for sounding moany! but today some girls im friends with were quite rude about another girl and were complanning that this girl has been rude to them! it really wound me up and i said to them about it but they just shrugged it off...

i really admire the work mentors, peer mentors and people like lcet do. i really do see the difference it can make in peoples lives. the fact they have some to talk to and the fact people actually care and want to help them make a difference. i really hope that i make a difference in peoples lives.

im trying so hard not to join in with the bitchyness now. it is hard and i still mess up, but i am really praying that God helps for me to question the people when they are been bitchy....i dont really join in with the bitching but i still listen and i think its about time now that i say something and stop it happening! but ive just got to trust God to help me to do this....

exam....

the science exam went ok - not amazing or even brilliant but it was ok! both exams were after lunch - the first exam was on health and exercise = this one wasnt too bad - i knew quite a lot of what i needed to know and could guess the answers i didnt know due to it being multipul choice. however the other exam was on chemical reactions! and this was one really hard!! so i guessed a lot of them. but when checking both back id noticed some mistakes i had made which i changed.

thanks for your prayers x x x

one of those weeks.....

this week has not been the best!! monday i was not looking forward to school and although the day was ok, it was not the greatest as i didnt want to be there! yesterday the prayer time at lunch was good, great to hear how some prayers have already been answered. but the day was long and tiring and i ended up going to bed at 9pm after i had done the majoritiy of my work and after an arguement with my mum which is now sorted. today i got to school and a boy in my year was trying to be funny but insted was insulting people so i said something and he started been rude, however at break he came and said sorry. i saw gill at lunch which was really nice, she came and found me and we had a good chat :+) however i went to maths revision class tonight and i found it really helped and i actually learnt quite a bit, now i need to continue to go each wednesday!

im hoping the next couple of days will be better, i think its just because i am tired and need to catch up on sleep and it has finally hit me how soon my exams are and my GCSES are in 6months, its not really that long!!!

ive got a science GCSE exam tomorrow - prayers would be appreciated....that il revise and that the exam will go ok, as im not a fan of science!!!

thanks everyone, lots of love x x x

long time no see.....

well today was ok. back to school and back to seeing everyone! i wasnt in the best of moods about going back - i really enjoyed berlin and didnt wanna have to work but school was ok today even though we have LOADS of work to catch up on. last lesson was pe and i didnt have my pe kit along with quite a lot of others so we just sat in the sport centre chatting and then 2boys in my year that were kicked out of school a couple of years ago came in!! one of them i still see quite a lot but the other i havent seen in ages and used to be very very good friends with him! so we ended up chatting - just me and them and it was really nice chatting to them, the one who i havent seen in ages has changed so much, but it was still nice chatting to him, was a bit awkward to start with but then it was ok! i am gunna start praying for them again, cos i used to pray for them all the time and then stopped. was really nice seein them both!!!

on another note, i made up with the person i had fallen out with - i was crying last night and went for prayer and after church we made up.

hope everyone has had a good day! x x x

appreciation....

it really bugs me when people dont appreciate their family and friends and the people around them. so much has happened lately and i really have realised how much i love and appreicate all my family and friends. the good and the bad they still love you and support you through it. i dont understand why people cant be grateful for the love they experience and the fact they have people who love them and want to spend time with them and they have food on the table in front of them. there are people in this world that dont have that. it really breaks my heart to see small arguements happen about stupid things like not getting your own way or not laying the table,when there are people hurting so much in this world about big issues.....

ive just had a chat with an ex boyfriend of mine who i havent spoken to in 3months. he was on msn and so i just said hello and we have just had a really good chat. im glad that we are able to chat again now and im glad that we are becoming mates again but it will take a lot of work cos a how much he hurt me when we split up....

sorry for sounding negitive but ive just had a arguement with my dad and brother because my brother didnt want to lay the table and told me how it was quiet when i wasnt here...! argh well it will be sorted later.

sometimes

sometimes ever felt that things dont plan out the way you hoped or thought they would? and it hurts so much but then in your heart you know maybe how its planned out is the right way for now and in the future could change and be the way you want....

sometimes you say the wrong thing which can really hurt someone and cause your hurting you dont really think and then you see them and you dont talk and realise just what you have done and how your actions have affected them....

sometimes people tell you things you dont want to hear and you try and carry on like nothing has happened or you stop talking and become rude to them....

sometimes you hear those you love most say things which make your heart cry out. cry out in guilt for hurting them, for saying just one word without thinking because you want to know something and dont think about what you are asking and how it may effect the person....

sometimes you are really happy, your on a high and want to share it with everyone and as your so happy you dont notice what is going on around you....

sometimes you feel really low, your hurting and it feels like everything is coming at once and although there are people, your friends to talk to you bottle it up inside or tell a few friends but not the whole story....

fireworks and church

went to the fireworks last night with Daniel,Jess,Hannah and Tasha. the fireworks were really good and it was nice to be with those guys whilst we were there. after the firework display they all came back to mine for some food and sparklers! we had a laugh and it was a really good night which i really enjoyed.

church was really good this morning - it was a all age service and Sarah was doing the talk, it was about kids in romania who dont have homes and live in hospitals and orphanges and the work which Sarah and some others are doing to help these kids - like building homes for them etc and getting people to sponser children out there. the video we watched at the end was so moving. it showed how kids in the hospitals are treated and then how they are once moved to one of these homes and their whole body language is so different. i found the talk really intresting and really moving.

tonight i am going to KATO! i wasnt going to go. for those of you that dont know KATO is a christian band and im going to their concert. i wasnt going to go because i wanted to have a earlish night tonight, but i found out we'd be back about 10 and everyone has asked me to come so i spoke to mum and ive desided to go!!

hope everyone has had a good weekend x x x

tonight was great, one of the TGI girls who i have been praying for was so lovely. ive started to build up a really strong realtionship with her with Gods help and God pointing me in the right dierection when things are tough. tonight i got there and had such a laugh with her and when she left she ran back in to the hall to give me a hug. this i never expected would happen! and i was so touched that she gave me a hug. God is really working there and its great to see what God is doing.

Tom's Blog

well i said to Tom id put a link up for his blog so everyone will read it...so the link is... http://tomwade.blogspot.com

there ya go Tom x

blah blah blah!

some days i really wanna leave school and other days i dont mind been there! but i am looking forward to leaving. ive had enough of the daily routine! but ive had some really intresting chats with my friends and its great to see nobody is following the crowd with what they want to do at college. ive also had various chats with people about our GCSEs and its great to see how people are feeling about it. im looking forward to going to college and studying what i want to study. but my year have finally grown up - everyone seems to be getting on - such a answer to prayer, me and chris have really been praying for our year at the prayer meeting and i can really see God working in indiviuals in our year. attitudes are starting to change, friendships are getting stronger, rudeness is slowly stopping and respect for one enough is starting to be gained. God is so awesome, and its great that as the days go on and our time at school gets shorter that the enviroment we are in 5days a week 6hours a day is becoming a nice enviroment to be in :+)

things outside of school are alright aswell, i have really and truly realised just how much i appreciate my friends, they are all there in good or bad times and love me whatever. i just want to say to everyone of my friends reading this - i love you. i am so happy that i have the most amazing friends ever, each special in there own way. happy or sad, i can share laughs and cries with them. church is going well - i really feel ive developed relationships with TGIS now(11-14 group im a leader at) and the meeting in which we had on monday discussing this past month was great to hear how everyone feels about different things and the encouraging things which have happened.

im off out in a minute to town and to meet Gill and Tasha, i need to get somethings for berlin and then we are going for hot chocolate i think!

hope everyone is doing alright and had a good day xx
