random comments!

So I went to the Christian youthwork conference this weekend and there were some problems. Firstly, I got really lost - like an hour out of my and more importantly I forgot something.

Think what the worse thing to forget for a Christian conference.

Give up?

I forgot my bible, so how bad did I look in every session where they said take out your bibles? I didn't know anyone so I couldn't borrow or share - where are the gideons when you need them?

Apart from that I had a cool time, although Eastbourne is so windy that I looked like one of those old women who looks like they are going to fall over because the wind is pushing them over!

Also, I think every Christian has a double. Yes Tom, I mean you! I saw a guy who I thought was my mate Tom, same hair, bag, build, jacket, same way of wearing the bag, hair, jacket. Even same glasses. It was proper scary and I almost talked to him. Luckily I didn't cause it wasn't Tom.

Anyway, sorry for the random-ness but there you go, it was a strange weekend.

uh oh, I'm in trouble...

Now, for those of you who don't know I have been studying at college for an AS in film studies. It is a random hobby being as I am studying with a bunch of 16 year olds (I am 25 don't forget!) and as far as most of them are concerned I am also about 16. Well, all except gay George who has occassionally attended my friends youth group with his friend, I have also been there as a leader and although he seems quite dumb (& oh, so camp - I swear there were no gay boys when I was his age partly due to going to an all girls school, times have changed) I reckon he knows!

Anyway, all was going well in class, none of my issues with fanying boys around the age of 18 (I have a problem with the baby face look) had arisen, a problem I am getting over when...at the start of this half term we had a new boy start. He is, I believe, quite young and a little bit attractive and so the fact that I am old enough to be his auntie is very scary. Thankfully I am wise enough to avoid this young man, however my friend George isn't and seems to have a big crush on him!

So to that new boy in my class (James, I found out by sneaking a look at the register) I say "Thank goodness you are oblivious because if you knew the truth, well, lets not say what it might cause you to do".

If ever the phrase "old enough to know better" needed to be used, this is the time!
