Well I am now on holiday, whoa
I have begun it with tidying which must continue, and I am trying to get some work. I had an interview yeasterday, I think that they quite liked me and my answeres, but I am not convinved that I want to work for them, but I will see if there is a job offer before I make any decisions.
I have quite a few taskes that I want to do over the summer, inc holiday, work on dissertation, revision for August exam, embroydery etc on bee suits, making a card holder for the birthday cards, Christmas cards and other occasion cards. It should be fun, and I will need to go on a material hunt at some point.

Well I am gradualy getting everything rearanged so as I do not have to worry about the effect on my studies from my back problems, movement is getting easier again and I do feel as if I am making proggress, however last weekend realy was not good for it as we went to speyside (3 hour drive) moved all my remaining belongings out- 1 days work, and then drove back- I do not think that my back approved.
So I am still trying to get all sorted out./

Well, I know that it has been a long time, but I will do a catch up post.
Uni is busy, and will be for a while
Kit and I have a joint bee keeping blog- http://bloggingbees.livejournal.com/
We were in a very minor car accident a month ago today- the car is now fine and Kit is fine- I am still recovering to an extent. I have whiplash, a twisted back and soft tissue damage- this on top of the previous back injury has made life complicated.
I did very well on my teaching placement the school and the uni are very happy with me.
I think that that is all of interest.

Well I have now had back my education assessment essay- I got a 2B and I have got back my American history essay where I got a 2C, not so good but at least they are back.
My exam questions for American history are particularly bad, I realy do not like anything that has been set, but I must get a plan for at least one of the questions schetched out tonight, and idealy more than that. I do not care how bad the outline is, I just need one tonight.
The weekend was good but busy, I had a great laugh at a conference on Saturday with Scott and we had a great lunch after church on Sunday, when we had Jacks, Daniel, Scott and Kit and I. It was good, we had a tower of icecream for pudding.
Tonight we have the Clarks and Jacks around for dinner- 8 in total, including 3 sprogs.

Presentation on Rwanda done- I am pleased with it. I had a good time doing it and I got a few laughs (where I intended). I am hoping to spend some time this after noon watching a video on beekeeping. I also am trying to research and write and essay, finish prep for a lesson tomorrow and do 1 and a half bible studies to catch up- it would also be useful to read another chapter on beekeeping. I got my essay back form African History; I got a 2B- high second class. I wish I could do better, but it is the best essay I feel that I have written this semester- I don’t have the other ones back, but I feel that they should be worse.

| » another week almost gone |
well Friday again. It has been a bit of a busy week. Although I am still a bit sore I am an awful lot better than I was last week.
I am needing to go and take many notes on differentiation for an essay, I am having lunch with a friend today and while I am in town I need to do a few things. But when I finnish I should study till the libary shuts at 7, to make up for not doing more at lunch time. Also as I will have started late I might go to a computer lab after the libary has shut to do some more work.
I am hoping to meet up with a friend tomorow who I last saw a year ago, but we will see what happens.

It has been a very good weekend, for most of it. I am not quite sure what today has been.
Friday was clam, after a good day, Kit went to Scouts, I watched a film (mainly because CJ was in it) and then went to get some icecream with Kit at the end of Scouts (it was for the next day)
Saturday was good we had a Buisness meeting in the Church to talk about the deaconate and other related issuse, I am not very sure quite how much progress was made, but it was a meeting where ideas were certainly developed and shared constructivly. Saturday night was a hoot, we had a girly night at one of the ladies houses and it was a long and very good evening, we were planning on watching a video but instead we just chatted about odds and sods for the best part of 5 hours. A very good evening.
Sunday was good, the kids were good at Sunday School and the lesson went well. We had a leaders meeting afterwards where we were mainly looking at what to do for the Christmas service and in the evening the tree of us firmed up what we were hoping to do. So it went very well.
Today has been a bit odd. I had the woment meeting but was not realy all there and then went out with Kit for the afternoon, but he has been called to work, so I should probably eat, study and do the housework, in varing amounts before I go out to the Bible study tonight.
We bought some more Christmas decorations today. We are going for a black and silver theam and I am trying to work out sleeping arangements for new years.

well today has been a good day. After feeling so ill yeasterdy I decided to take today easy. Kit and I went for pancakes and then we went in to his work together. We now have new bits for the tree.
Apart from that I have spent most of today doing the kitchen to make it better for Jacks to use if she comes. It is looking realy good now and all that needs done is the floor, will let Kit do that.
I have not done my studying today though. I am meant to read a book on Nigeria and two chapters on the Veitnam war- I will do that soon.
Cat has behaved quite well, is currently asleap in the living room, he was being a pain in the neck earlier.
I have found my amber bracelet.

it was slightly bazzar today. I tried to put money in to my print balance at the Uni with no luck. I put in a £10 and half of a £5 came out with my£10 that it had not accepted....
to be continued. I now have change so I can still have enough print balance to be getting on with, but it was strange all the same.
Will go to libary later to hand in the muteded £5.
Think that I will go to the voice work shop now.

| » last few days |
Well the last few days have contained two essays and some great times.
The essays are for the most part done and dusted now, I just wish that there was a chance for some down time now that they are done, but nevermind, atlest they will be handed in on time. I still have to do my lesson for tomorow, but that is not too much of a chalange and can be done as I have been planning it for weeks, I just need to get the supporting material made.
On Sunday night I was an embarasment to myself and those around me. We were at a big meeting of the Baptist Church and I was on a complete high, I had been struggeling with bits and peices, and havign the chance to have full out worship was great. I started having many mental images and was very giggily, fine until I had a set of giggles in the middle of a responcive prayer. Giggiling, snorthing as I tried to stop laughing and then I colapsed in to a little pile of geggles on my chair and tried to hide. Unfortuanately you could hear my giggles ect from the stage. Opps.
Last night was realy good too, we were having a leaving doo for Charlie and John, they leave this week for America and we will miss them a lot, we had a cheiligh and it was a real blast, I am pleased that I prioritised it over the studying last night.

| » The plan for today |
Well I am back at uni again. The plan for today is to get all that I have taken notes on in to my essay in as much detail as I have it and then go take more notes from the other articles that I have in my bag.
I had a good evening yesterday- I spent time with Jackie, chilling listening to music and nattering about all that has been going on and all the things that have been annoying us. It was good to catch up.
I was feeling really ill afterwards though- I don’t think that my stomach is sorted yet- but it is the weekend , so I will deal with it next week when I can make an appointment again.
Tomorrow should be good. We are going to teach the children about Halloween from a Christian perspective, it will be a chance to look at what it is. I know a lot of them will not be allowed out by their parents so it will be good to talk to them about it. I think that next year it would be cool to arrange an alternative to Halloweening, perhaps a “fools for Christ” party, but we will see.
Kit is off to buy pygmy corries today- it will be good to see them when I get home- I have never had pygmy corries before.
I wish Tom would come back.

oh, some of you might remember, I had not been feeling well from about March of this year? Well they found out what was wrong eventualy- I had an infected stomach ulser. I still have at least some of the ulser left but the bacteria has gone away. I must admit that I am very pleased to have got rid of it now.
People are being too loud in here, I have no music anymore to drown them out. They are anoying me. I did get some study done, and I eed to finnish this artical before I go for dinner at 5 with Jacks. I could also do with getting to the 1/2 way stage with my essay just so that I can feel good about having got that far. It would not take much to do that.

I will Sing
Lord you seem so far away, A million miles or more it feels today, And though I haven't lost my faith I must confess right now that its hard for me to pray, but I don't know what to say, and I don't know where to start, but as you give the grace with all thats in my heart, I will sing , I will praise, even in my darkest time through the sorrow and the pain I will sing and I will praise, Lift my hands to hounor you because your word is true I will sing,
Lord its hard for me to see all the thoughts and plans you have for me, but I will put my trust in you knowing that you died to set me free, but I don't know what to say, and I don't know where to start, but as you give the grace with all thats in my heart, I will sing and I will praise, even in my darkest time through the sorrow and the pain I will sing and I will praise, Lift my hands to hounor you because your word is true I will sing and I will praise, even in my darkest time through the sorrow and the pain I will sing and I will praise, Lift my hands to hounor you because your word is true I will sing oh I will sing

Well at the moment I am trying to write an essay on the factors that contributed to the Rwandan genocide. It is hard going. A lot of the things which I am ment to look at are very dry and boaring facts in my opinion. I would love to be able to look at the parts of it that interest me, but that will come later when I get the chance to look writing my dissertation.
I am hoping that I can go out for a cupa soon, Jackie might come over soon to ask me to come out for a while.
We have just had a fire alarm- we got back in quickly so it can not have been a real one- but I sat on the steps for a while, getting fresh air and speaking to the person who narmaly hided behind the resorce desk.
I should try to get this artical read before I leve for a while and I will have to work hard over the weekend to make up for me being so lazy at the moment. I slightly less than half of my word cound writen and I will add to that with some evedence and specific details.

Well, I am back. My life went from being so utterly boring and therefore pointless to blog to being so busy I have not had time to blog. I came in to the Uni today and was sat down with my books by 8.30 and have not really done any of my essay so far. Instead I have listened to music and tried to put the Scottish education system down on paper for one of my tutors who comes from South Africa. I did not realize quite how silly the system was until I tried to write it all down for some one else. I have also been trying to get my link practice video back (video of me and another student using P7 as guinea pigs for our teaching style. Our video is not where it should be but someone else’s is.
Well I had never been to London until two weeks ago, and now I have been twice- I have really enjoyed it, more than I thought that I would, I am looking forwards to when I can next go back.
This essay is on a good subject just from a really uninteresting angle- grrr.
I will probably post more later as I will be fed up again soon.

Well, Easter Sunday- sun rire- highest place possible locally- well I had better get the kettle on, cut the fruit cake and get some cloths on again. I am hoping that I get some sleep between the walk and going to church- If not I might get some in between the services or failing that I will be sleeping at some point after 4.00 Fiona
