haha! there is something ultimately wrong with the internet today. and its like past 8 and i'm still online!! WHEEEEE. this is gooood. but bad cos i havent been doing anything for the past 1 hour of prep, which means i'm not doing my homework BUT WHAT THE HECK! there's no school tmr!! :D and that means no need to do homework cos there is NO homework checks! WOOHOO! this is good... (maybe thats why they've left the internet access on till like past 8!) :D
AND ITS MY BIRTHDAY TMR! i've got plans! : P which is good! cos i wasnt supposed to have any and i was supposed to spend my birthday alone and friendless in a foreign country all by myself celebrating with a birthday cake and gorging myself with it cos i dont have anyone to share with! (and at the same time crying with no one to console me cos i get back horrid results for o's).
yes that was the plan for yesterday.
BUT NOT ANYMORE!
my weekend is jam packed with activities! :D :D :D :D :D :D
after swimming carnival tmr, i'm going out with jeannie and aliya and melesse to karrinyup shopping ctr for SHOPPING! haha. i need to make a list of stuff to get! :D oh and also to celebrate my birthday as well! :D and we only have to get back by 7 plus tmr cos there iSNT prep! and we can have our dinners out as well! so double hurray for that! :D oh yeah! and i'm getting my atm card activated as well! so i have money to spend! with my mom's permission of course! :D she said to get something for my birthday, since i think the only thing i'll be getting is the chocolates that jiaen said she's sending over! (THATS A
BIG HINT! COS YOU GUYS MIGHT THINK OF SENDING SOMETHING OVER AS WELL! HAHA. but i dont think any of you will bother to right! i know you all too well! haha)
then sat morning, i'm going out with amanda to her aunt's place so that we can decide on our hairstyles for the ball, which is next friday. its quite exciting really. there's so much buzz about it. and everyone's talking about dresses, dates, hairstyles, makeup, which table, which limo, corsages, befores, afters, everything! haha. which is kinda cool actually! to think that everyone here (even parents) are willing to spend so much time and effort on a social activity! haha. and apparently its quite common to have socials in aust! which is kinda cool, cos you mix around with alot of people...
yes so anyway back to my story!
sat afternoon, my guardian wants to pick me up and then i'll be going to church with her on sunday! (thats an answered prayer! thank God! which reminds me, i've got lots to thank God for today! i shall list them later) thats one overnight leave taken.. i'm allowed to take multiple weekend leaves cos i'm yr 12 and thats a previledge that only yr 12s get! haha. quite thankful really. (:
and then when i come back on sunday afternoon we have chapel for the boarders, and jeannie and aliya are gonna sing with my playing on the piano! i've gotten most of the notes right already. which is good! haha. (: i just hope i dont muck up on sunday! that would be highly embarrassing.
thats my weekend! sounds exciting right! i am excited! :p which means maybe i'll get packed weekends for the rest of the year! HURRAY. hahahah. there's so much to blog about.. but i cant get it all organised in my head. and you know what!!! when i go to my guardian's house over the weekend, i CAN USE MSN!! OH HURRAY! civilisation. then i can communicate with everyone!!!! :D :D :D :D
okayokay. i should stop here. hahah.before i go crazy!
so before i go, here's the list of things to praise GOd for!
1. for having THE perfect plan for me
2. for being in control of my life
3. for providing me with friends at st marys
4. for strengthening old friendships, and communicating by email!
5. for giving me the internet and letting my blog still function
6. for guiding me everyday with the right qt to start my day off on the right foot
7. for giving me really nice and helpful (and apparently the best ones!) teachers here at st marys
8. for giving me the chance to play for chapel for aliya and jeannie, and for it to go smoothly in front of the music housemother today
9. for providing me with a really great guardian (she sounds nice over email!)
10. for just being God, who i've learnt can be silent at times, but makes things happen all the same. and i'm thankful for that.
continue to keep me in prayer guys! i dont think i could have survived without your prayers as well! and also, pray for me, to be a good vessel for christ.. to be a good servant and also to share christ here as well. there are so much opportunities here. i find that the girls here, even though this is a christian school, there arent that many christians around. so thats a really scary thought! esp that all the new friends that i make wont be going to heaven with me.. ): maybe God's telling me something! (: now i see the difference in a sheltered environment, esp back in mg where God has provided me with a strong network of christian friends and supporters.. and over here, where there are such vast differences in the religious groups. so pray for me! as i embark on this new journey, with God, myself, st marys, and perth. (:
a shout of praise.
