what is it with people today? they try to take advantage of you, physically, emotionally, financially. I mean I just got back my deposit from my landlord's, and they charged us all £20 for cleaning the place, which was not in our contract, so I phoned them up to say that it awsn't in what we signed, and do you know what they said, she said it could have been a lot worse, she could have charged us £1000+£80 for something else!!!! I mean its a student house, she should see some of the other houses in that area, I was a bit annoyed cos her argument was that it should have been left in the same state as it was when we entered in sept 2005- I really believe that t was in a better state than when I first entered it, so basically am i paying for what other tennants should have paid last year also when they moved out? cos most of my housemates have been there for 2years. I mean I had rats in my room! what does that mean? Surely thats not my fault! It was a good house, admittedly, but I'm just so annoyed with their decision, I had to vent it somehow, so I thought I'd blog about it.

My mum is having trouble with her boss too, its just seems that people are taking advantage of us left right and centre. yeah £20 isn't that much, but it means that I can pay for my jabs, and that they say that a little can go a long way.

FOF

It's been too long.

Wow, whats been going on with me in the last month (nearly) well, I've been visiting my lovely boy. Then I went with him to help out at a christian event called new wine cymru, which was amazing. the theme was 'New' New Covenant, New Heaven and Earth, New Commandment (love one another) A New Life... It was good to meet up with some reasonably new friends again (made from last year) they're really fun, and so passionate about God.

God did something new in me that week, it's hard to put my finger on it precisely but I know it had something to do with preparing me for something. Thats as clear as I can be about it. I think He was just helping me to know that as God, He can do anything.

Someone brought a couple of verses to me one day from Mark 11 and it was about praying outrageously, and if you believe that it will happen, then God will grant it (obviously if its in line with God's plans). It was just really encouraging to me.

I'm so looking forward to India! :D
