last night was the BEST

my brothers engagment party was last night....it was sooo much fun. i am so happy for him and deb and love them both so much. it was such a good night...was so nice to see all his mates too who i havent seen for ages cos they are at uni...naomi,lou,hannah and chris came with me, and when they all went there was still an hour left of the party so my brothers friends stayed with me and were all dancing with me which was quite amusing. i requested a couple of songs which were played at mr boogies last year so was fun dancing to them!! even though i have a messed up leg...read the comments on my last post cos i wrote on the comment what happened. so i had a great night....was a good day considering how friday went.....3bad things happened....ive written two of them, and im not saying the third one on here but yeah. so i enjoyed last night. love you jonny nd deb x x x x

SHIT DAY

sorry for the language but i am VERY annoyed. i have started my exams now...they are all going really good, spanish on monday went great, english lit on tuesday was brilliant, i couldnt have had better questions to write answers too and re today went well....so your probably wondering why is she pissed off....il tell you why....

MY ENGLISH LITERATURE EXAM HAS BEEN BURNT TO ASHES. the van which was taking our exams to be marked caught fire, the driver was unharmed, but our exam papers have been destroyed.( they dont know how the van caught on fire yet, they are invesigating into it ). now we dont have to do the exam again, they are looking at our oral and coursework grades and the predicted grades which were made 2weeks ago, which we don't know. i am so gutted, upset, angry, i duno how to really describe how im feeling, cos its mixed emotions. but when i found out the shock of it didnt hit me until about 10mins after. the music exams were also in the same van, but i dont take music so that hasnt effected me. but really im deverstated about it as i was so proud of myself with the effort i had put into the exam. so yeah...very bad day! but guess one good thing of it is that now im not on full timetable and only have to go to lessons if i wish to, if not, i can study at home.

all in all though...i am quite fed up.

gillys is a good mood!

todays been a really really good day!! i dont really know why - i just woke up this morning feeling really relaxed and then i had my 9 exams frm 10-20 til 3-30 with an hours lunch break and a 5min break at 11-05!! but they went good and then i came home and relaxed and then wrote saphias 24pages leaver message in her book whilst i was babysitting. so ive had a good day today and enjoyed it even though nothing great has happened im feeling really good and really positive =]

its a shame about arsenal but in some ways funny - my history teacher bet with the boys in my class that arsenal wouldnt win....they said they would....and now they all owe him a mars bar cos he got it right!! had he got it wrong he would have brought all of them one!! so next lesson should be quite amusing!!

hope everyone is ok =] x x x x

something ive learnt....

when something goes wrong and you tell those close to you that your fine they know straight away your not!! and you can keep saying it and saying it and yet they still know you aint!! lol. i just been having a chat with hannah about a certain situation....and i was like im fine about it and she was like no your not!! lol. but yeah things are going good in my life about from one thing which has been consistant for a while now...but im trusting God with it and whatever happens will be Gods will =] but yeah i think its quite sweet those close to me can tell when something is wrong.....it means a lot.

my lovely friends....


hannah, tasha and louise - i am so glad us four are all hanging out again....i love you girlies so much - you all give me so many jokes and we have so many memories already and are gonna get so many more so soon....you guys are great and so special and i never let you know how much i love you all x x x mwah x x x

memories!!

reading Toms blog this morning brought back a lot of memories! gosh we had so much fun when we went to soul survivor....i loved every minute of it. i often look back at the pictures and think back to the amazing time we had...from mr boogies....to the worship....to the talks....to just hanging out and getting to know people better. i really do think soul survivor was one of the best things of 2005 for me - i made some great friends there =] i cant go this year as im going away with mum for a week to spain....am gutted i cant go as it was so much fun last year, but i will go again next year all being well. but yeah just looking back and thinking and reflecting on all the memories it was great, they will remain, good,happy,fun time memories.

half crazy

these lyrics were lyrics which naomi said to me 3years ago to listen to....when i had just split up with someone...and i was sitting on here tonight and it made me think about these lyrics again and something now....so thought id post them.....

La la la la la la la la laaaaaa
La laLa la la la la la laaaaaa
La la la la la la la la laaaaaa
La laLa la la la la la laaaaaa
La la laaaa

Never thought that we would ever be more than friends
Now I'm all confused cause for you I have deeper feelings
We both thought it was cool to cross the line
And I was convinced it would be alright
Now things are strange, nothings the same
And really I just want my friend back

And my mind's gone half crazy cause I can't leave you alone
(oh can't get you out of my system)
And I'm wondering if it's worth me holding on
(holding on)
Said my mind's gone half crazy cause I can't leave you alone
(can't get you out of my system)
And I'm wondering if it's worth me holding on
(yeah)

I'd hate walk away from you as if this never existed
Cause when we kissed the moment after I looked at you different
Lately I gotta watch what I say
Cause you take things personally nowadays
You used to laugh now you get mad
Damn I just want my friend back (yeah yeah)

And my mind's gone half crazy cause I can't leave you alone
(oh can't get you out of my system)
And I'm wondering if it's worth me holding on
(holding on yeah oh )
Said my mind's gone half crazy cause I can't leave you alone
(can't get you out of my system yeah yeah)
And I'm wondering if it's worth me holding on

oh oh oh oh oh yeah

What happened to the one I used to know
oh yeah yeah
The one I used to laugh and joke with
The one I used to tell all my secrets
We used to chill and be down for whatever whenever together yeah

And my mind's gone half crazy (oh) cause I can't leave you alone
(I'm going half crazy baby)
And I'm wondering if it's worth me holding on
(over you yeah over you)
Said my mind's gone half crazy (yeah oh)
cause I can't leave you alone (and I just don't know)
And I'm wondering if it's worth me holding on (said I just don't know what to do now)

listen
we used to chill yeah we used to hang yeah
we used to we used to do some many things together yeah
yeah yeah oh
yeah yeah oh
oh oh oh
yeah yeah
oh oh oh

ohh maaannn!!

i had written a really long blog earlier and then my computer desided to crash!! gayyynesss!! lol

so il start again....

infinity was really good yesterday, i really enjoyed it. we are doing a series on relationships and last night were talking about sex. i really enjoyed cell time. normally il be like hmm yeah for things like this and think i know all there is i need to know, but last night i really enjoyed it, i was able to be honest in cell time, to start with i was thinking, shall i be, but then i thought well this is what cell is for!! so it was good =] i love infinity, although at the moment its not a massive youth group - its really nice because we are all friends.

school is going so quick, i have 28 school days left and then everything is over, done and dusted. im ready for the exams now, normally i leave revision to the last minute, and i have again but im ready to sit the exams now, and am looking forward to doing them. its weird, ive been thinking a lot lately and had a lot of conversations with people about when we leave and keeping in touch. its one thing to chat on msn but another thing to meet up. i honestly think there will only be certain people who i want to meet up with and catch up with and there will be many people who i say "hi how are you" if i see them in a street!

saturday is the start of the parties for me, i have quite a few parties this month and next which i am really looking forward to. but the ones this month i need to make sure im not to tired after them as i need to spend weekends revising now!!

on myspace i have been receiving the same bulliton for a while - about a girl called anna who died 6days before her 16th birthday. i havent been on her myspace, but last night when i got the bulliton i went on it. its so upsetting to read all her comments from all her friends who miss her so much. if you have time = check out her myspace....

Anna

i cant actually remember what else i had written so it obviously wasnt that important!! but yeah im doing good at the min, things are going well and im happy =]

summer sun

so summer is here!! the weather has been great lately. i love this time of year, when you can go to the park in the evenings and it isnt dark early so you can stay out late. i remember this time last year - me, tasha, hannah, dan and rob were always going on picnics! they were so much fun. i hope this year will be as good. last year was a really good year as far as im concerned and i hope this year, even though things are a lot different will be just as good =] really glad the weather is good again, time for pretty shoes again!! hehe =] its strange cos the last year has flow by - i remember this time last year, saying goodbye to my friends in yr11, and the year before and even the year before that!! and now its me leaving. gosh high school has gone quick, seems like only yesterday i was leaving primary school. but its been nice lately, cos lots of my primary school friends and me have got back in touch - (the genius of myspace!) im still looking forward to leaving, only 30school days left!! not bad really!! it will go quick. 7weeks yesterday and everything will be done and dusted and over! wow! will go quick! but im glad its summer, can look forward to going on holiday now. yaaay!

forgiveness - this may not make much sense to some, but it does to me!

"forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us" <-- that is something we say when we take communion. its communion tomorrow at church, and that is a line tomorrow in the Lords prayer which i know il have meant. this week has been pretty good. but like most know, last sunday wasnt. and there was someone i was really angry at and hurt by which has been building up over a few weeks now. but i prayed about it, and God healed me quickly. i can truly say they are forgiven in my heart. i dont 'hate' them or anything like that, i never did. they are forgiven.

ive been thinking about forgiveness a great deal the past week. "i am forgiven because You was forsaken" are words which come to me as i write this. forgiveness is a hard thing to do and mean it. its so much easier to say you have forgiven someone than actually doing it. i learnt this a while back, but i managed to forgive that person from a while back not so long ago....but that took ages, but i let go and risked losing them, and thats what im doing again this time. God has a plan, God has a reason behind everything. God has our lives mapped out and knows whats going to happen. and i know this in my head and heart, sometimes it can be hard to believe it when things go wrong but i know its true.

so yeah basically what im trying to say is, that person is forgiven.
