you wanna be in my band?!

I cannot believe what delights this week has brought to me already, and I didnt ask for them, it just seems that my dreams have come true to a certain extent, I just can't believe my ears, when I heard that my friend Binks, was looking for a singer, to sing in his Christian band, and I said i'd give it a go, and he's said that I can be in his band!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't believe it, I've always wanted to be singing, in a Christian band thing like this, I'm so chuffed about it. Also, another aquaintance is setting up a Chester uni newspaper for students, and has seen that I enjoy English, and havent just done the subject just cos I was good at it, and he wants me to write articles for it!!!! I was like yeah, thats so cool, go for it! These events occured on the same day, I am now in a band, and could start a career as a journalist, if i'm ok at it!!!!!!!!!! Ok, maybe i'm going slightly over the top, but i'm just really excited about it all. These are chances that I would have never received if I hadnt come here, and these are the things I've always wanted to do, i'm just a bit blown away by it all.
It will all be such a good experience. I will keep you all posted on what gigs I do, (they're mainly in manchester!) and articles etc... :)
This year is proving to be very fun at the moment, bring it on :D
I can't believe also that next week I'm gonna turn 21! I still feel like im about 18 anyways! (and act like it most of the time!) I totally agree with you Bex, that you think you're grown up when you're 18, but then the next three years really help you to understand that you're not grown up really.
Anyways, will keep you all up to date!

Thank you for the encouragement, I was reading another chapter from Purpose Driven Life yesterday, and it was talking about how you should try new things, because you sometimes dont realise that you have a gift until you try something new. I (un-egotistically) know that I'm ok at singing, but I find it difficult to see other gifts that God has given me. Thats my prayer at the moment, that I will be shown what my gifts are so that I can glorify God by being who he has made me to be.
