A-Z of memories!
I found this the other day in a random notebook in my room & thought that it would be fun to write it down as a blog! so here it is (a few memories around about 14-18 years old of mine &others!) I know a few people that read this blog and would enjoy reminiscing!
A - a level stress, ambulances, aerosmith- 'don't wanna miss a thing!' Aiming milkshake at unsuspecting pigeons (and getting told of by the police- you know who you were!!!)
B- Bank holiday monday walks, blowing bubbles at waddesdon manor (I think), Bev hitting her head on Dave G's hip at Feldon Lodge, BBQ's, beaches, bowling, bakewell tart (fights-between cars!) Bells? or a loo (on top of Coombe hill) Boyfriends!
C- coombe hill, cars chocolate, Christian union, church
D- Driving lessons, dancing lessons, drum banging (when we went to watch ice hockey)
E- easter egg hunts, eurovision song contests!
F- faith builders, fireworks, flubber, funglemoo!
G- Genesis group, 'great is the lord', golf courses!
H- Happy books, hats, hannah the hand
I- Ice creams, ice skating, ice breakers 'I want to live like cannonballs!'
J- Jokes, Jaci Velasquez (the one no-one could pronounce!)
K- 'kiss the rain' kev singing and playing air instruments in Dave's car! Knees (dislocating!)
L- listening to music, london shopping, london lights
M- map reading, maccy d's, midnight walks, mission impossible, make believe instruments! milton keynes shopping!
N- noo noo (Bev's blanket) Notting hill poses
O- 'oh my life' Orion's belt
P- PANTS! pioneer camp, photos, prayer meetings, phil collins, poodles! Pool playing, poddington peas singalong!
Q- quizzes (time machine)
R- Rollers, Romania Trips, Roller coasters (at Wicksteed park!!)
S- swings and slides, singing, stars, sketches, slam the lamb, sugar splitting fun! Squirkles! Sardines in the dark, in the woods!
T- treasure hunts, Trigger happy TV moments, turkey tree hill
U- UBM, unforgettable memories
V- video evangelism
W- Walks, wheelchairs, Wicksteed Park!
X- xams!
Y- YB's, YPF, youth squashes. 'you cannot make a monkey outta me!'
Z- zest!
I am so sure that we could think of so much more to go into that short list, but I read it the other day and it was really fun just to go back and think about the things that we used to do!
I know that 'x' is a bit contrived, but hey! I'm allowed! If you can think of anything major that i've left out, comment!!!

Joy
This last sunday I have really enjoyed being at home for Easter. I know that recently I have been quite critical of Aylesbury, especially of LABChurch, but when I came back I could just see that God is still working in that churhc in a mighty way. I was priviledged to be asked to sing in the evening service, and my overall aim in that was to glorify God with how I was singing, and just trying to bring some of that excitement and joy into the worship at the church, for we were singing about Jesus' resurrection, and so it was important to understand what that means for us, and the joy that it should bring to our hearts.
It was such an encouragement for me, when at the end of the service someone came up to me and thanked me for singing. I knew that he understood what I was attempting to bring, and to bless people with, and that meant so much to me. It was also nice to know that God was pleased with what had been brought, andit came through feedback from a man nearing 80.

I just want to apologise to everyone who reads my blog and looks for updates, i'm sorry that I haven't written a blog for absolutely ages.
To be honest March was such a manic month, what with trying to finish an 840 page book (which was amazing by the way) and writing an independent report on it (that took a while!) and becoming Small Group Co-ordinator, having copious amounts of meetings in one week (1-1 coffee's with people, committee meetings, small group meeting& small group leaders meeting) At the end of the month I had an exam and a 2,000 word essay on the same day, so I was revising for the exam and stuff, and I also had a 1,000 piece to hand in too. So my time spent in the library was purely for work purposes, and my free time went on seeing Craig, and my other friends(!) and also having Jonathan to stay for a week which was nice (all my housemates enjoyed him staying too, especially Dee :)
Right, thats my excuse for not writing. This term I have to write 6,000 words on Dickens and anything that I choose to write on basically about him (directed of course by lecturers!). Will be quite fun ;) - I hope! They call it a mini-dissertation, so I will hopefuly be ready for next years dissertation, which I will be focussing on C.S Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia, and Tolkien (looking at how they use Christianity in their writings-for they're both Chrisitans) and also how they differ. Basically it gives me a chance to look closely at the Narnian Chronicles, and at Lewis's life :)
The people that really know me know how much I love Narnia, so this dissertation is going to be quite fun (hopefuly!).
