New-ness

So. It seems like over the past few months I have acquired a whole lot of new things. New job, new mobile, new mobile number, new mattress/new bed, new bathroom, new ministry roles, new Bible study group, newly diagnosed health problem, new Ps (yes, as of last Friday, but it doesn't mean anything, I'm worse than I was when I was on my Ls), not to mention that this blog is on the new Blogger, and this week I shall get a new haircut (finally). And of course, this is a new post, for those who have been getting bored of the Valentines' Day one....speaking of which, one thing I can't add to the list of new things is "new relationship status" (unlike a seemingly large number of people lately) , and thank God for that, because that certainly would have been one new thing too many. But I think what I am starting to get is a new (or not so new?) perspective of certain things...anyway, hopefully this year will be all good. Well it will be busy and different, but all good, I hope.


And for those who are wondering, no I haven't finished uni yet, still going...one subject this semester, one subject next semester...and then....I don't really want to think about next year's...
**hums funeral march**
....PGTC (that's the pharmacy graduate training course, for those of you lucky enough not to know what it is)


Oh and Happy 21st Cat!
(and then there were two... =P)

Cupid strikes

So I guess Valentines' Day didn't turn out to be such an insignificant day after all...

There was:

• 1x engagement (church ppl)
• 1x wedding (pharmacist from work)
• 1x birth of twins (church ppl)
• 1x loss of an eight(?) year bet (school ppl)..

...As well as 1x Broadway construction complications (see comment on previous post), which had a reprise today when at around 4pm, some panelling from the newly erected escalators came loose, and so they had to fence off our area of the shopping centre again.

Which meant nearly no customers for the rest of the day! (= getting paid to do very little)

YAWN + YAWN = ??

...I guess it would equal a dislocated jaw.


So...it's Valentine's Day tomorrow.


Mmm-hmmm.


Like, whatever.


So....I'll be working 9-8 tomorrow (yes, I'll be there alllllllll day) and 9-6 on Thursday, so come and visit me if you like =)

How To Save A Life - The Fray

Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
And you begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cos after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defence
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Waaahs and Yays

Waaah no. 1
I think I've forgotten how to play guitar. Plus I haven't written anything in ages. Oh well. Maybe I'll come back to it a bit later when I'm *more mature* and have more writing material...cos at the moment I think if I try to write anything it will be kinda sucky...

Waaah no.2
What am I going to do for my 21st?? Hmmm it's February....am I meant to start planning now?

Waaah no.3
Bathroom renovations = no showers at home

Yay no.1
Glue is back on!

Yay no.2
My collection of freebies from work is growing. I might post a picture up sometime.

As an aside, I think my workplace is rather "worldly". Hmmm, probably need to be "on guard" in certain areas.

Yay no.3
Um....can't think of one. I suppose that would make it a Waaah no.4.

Waaah.


[EDIT]

Wait I've got one!

Yay no. 3
Finally got to see what Wii looks like at Lena's party last night. Quite a good game for large parties, as can be played by lots of people simultaneously.

Waaaah no.5
I have a wonky spine! (scoliosis) We'll see how that's going in a few months time...

Plus I had my BP measured and it barely made 90/60. Hrmmm....
