(Eh, so the students were only 25 mins late - the rest of the blame was on traffic. I stand corrected.)
Conversation, conversation, conversation. Dreaming dreams, discussing realities; theorising, categorising, somethingelse-ising. Great.
The indoors when outside is so manky.
Seeing awesome potential in an already so competent student leader… Looking forward to hearing how his life proceeds. Listening to [...]

I do NOT understand why when students were meeting at 4pm 5 miles away, it took them until 4.45 to get to my house. So, whilst I could be positive and say it made me happy that I could sneak a peek at my facebook, it still drove me barmy.
HOWEVER…! I love this part of [...]

Not having to drive to Derry (I love it, but just not tonight!). A mass-eef feed cooked by my Neen’s fair hands. A post-dinner walk, game of scrabble and room tidy. Getting into bed in a tidy room!

Catching up with a friend from church. A good chat with my Dad. Several bargains from Primark! Coming home to Coleraine. Making it to my exercise class (I did NOT enjoy the actual class though!). Butternut Squash.

Steak, medium-rare and a power nap in Wetherspoons!
Pottering round the shops with no pressure to hurry or buy or even look. Just hangin out with my buddy, Hops, and dreaming dreams about a holiday in June…!
Getting to the airport, I was actually knackered, feet killing, no energy… So, a chilled mango smoothie and feet up [...]

A general sense of contentment about a good week of learning, teaching and laughing.
Staying with a friend in Birmingham - a night relaxing at the cinema, eating leftover homemade curry and exploring my friend’s home of the past two years.

TWO jaunts off-site (the real world does still go on while I’m at a conference!) to a chintzy lil coffee shop in very pretty Ledbury. Yep… the same coffee shop twice in the space of 4 hours! Great chilled out chats with staff and fellowship group to boot.
I led the ‘Look Listen Learn’ session this [...]

I loved playing piano and singing with the praise ‘band’ this week - all the better for actually having a monitor and being able to hear if I’m playing the right notes!
Seeing how much one of my group members has grown in the past semester in terms of leading Bible Studies. Cool to see the [...]

A day spent as ‘poor’ in a real-life example of world poverty. I woke up to nothing more than a bowl of porridge and a prospect of nothing but a bread roll and a baked potato for the rest of the day. It was kind of fun in a weird way. I kind of enjoyed [...]

A HUUUUUGE sugh of relief on finding my brand new ‘lost’ ipod which I feared I’d left on a train.
A good first Bible Study with my fellowship group - we were much more relaxed than back in September and it was good to hear how they’d been doing in the interim.
Enjoying good chats with some [...]
