Medical

I got all my medical forms from OM in the post today. I have to have a full medical examination, fill out a bunch of forms myself about family medical history etc, as well as filling in sheets about my faith and general info. So much paperwork!! So I've booked my medical for a week monday.

I'm still trying to get my white water rafting trip booked. It was a birthday present last April but the only date I managed to book, they cancelled at the last minute. Well I went online just now and they have dates for this April that I can do but my voucher expires in March. I'm gonna ring them and ask them to extend it for free seeing as it's their fault.

World people



So I heard today that OM have rung my church leader for a reference, which is cool! Means things are moving along.

Don't you think world people are so fascinating? I mean we're all so different in our looks, our quirks, our cultures.

Isn't this little girl so cute?!

Sunset over the Bay



Saw this beautiful winter sunset over Traerddur Bay, Anglesey on Sunday. I love living near the sea!

It was REALLY cold and icy. We smashed ice sheets onto the rocks.. Makes a lovely sound like glass smashing!

A belated Happy New Year! I hope everyone enjoyed Christmas and New Year. We had snow! Yay! My sister's mum-in-law-to-be and I made angels in the snow and had a snowball fight with a random little boy who happened to be in the street - it was fun!

I have exams in a couple of weeks. Am not very motivated to revise at present. Was thinking the other day about motivation and how as Christians our motivation for everything we do should be to honour God. Maybe one day I'll get to the point where I can focus everyday on thoroughly revising and honouring God in that (haha!). Until then I am trying to honour God by not stressing out about it all whilst still getting it done eventually!

I am being challenged on image at the moment. It's my friend's wedding next weekend and I had originally bought a long skirt to wear coz being winter, i didn't want to freeze and it's hard to find warm and dressy. But I feel like I'm going to be really underdressed compared with lots of other people and it's bothering me. It shouldn't. I've spent hours and hours hunting for a nice dress but haven't found anything to fit/cheap enough. My security should be in my relationship to God not in my appearance, but for some reason I am comparing myself a lot lately. Hmmm... need to address that one!
