What a week!

Wow I cannot believe that it's Friday tomorrow. I have been waiting for this day all week. It's basically the same every Sunday when I get home from church - I can't wait for the next weekend to be with my mates. This week in particular has been rather challenging. God convicted me that I don't spend enough time with Him, so I've been really crying out to Him this week. Ladies (and gents) do not underestimate the power of knee-mail! God hears prayers and I have been more at peace this week than I have been in a while. I have also been facing more persecution than I have in a while. Yeah, well, God did promise that there would be testing, so I'm not complaininig. Everything bad is only temporary. I know that I will walk through this heat and come out refined.

On to other affairs! Next week is the school's annual English Week. I have graciuosly agreed to represent my house in the senior team for the spelling bee. I got a list of 200 words that I have to learn by next week. Woohoo! And to top it off, there's a poetry writing compewtition and I will be entering that. All I need to do is select a poem from my current collection of random writings. The max entries you can have is 3 so I'll have quite a tough time picking from the 5 I narrowed my choice down to. I know it's completely unrelated but my back was playing up in class and froze twice today, meaning that I couldn't move properly. It's a slight combination of stiffness and pain. Not much fun. I might get it checked soon. Probably should.

Well it's getting late and I have to finish my essay for literature (another 80% I hope) while listeninig to The Commodores. Gotta love The Commodores. Oh! And Bryan Adams.

Please forgive me - i know not what i do
Please forgive me - i can't stop lovin' you
don't deny me - this pain i'm going through
Please forgive me - if i need ya like i do
Please believe me - every word i say is true
Please forgive me - i can't stop lovin' you
