That time of term

Howdy hodilly folks!

Well this is it - today I had my final lecture in Portsmouth for two years... scary! I remember the day my parents abandoned me at Langstone like it was yesterday...WHERE has the time gone? So yeh, next week is gonna be tough going but I know that God's in charge and in Him there is rest :) Have just made a nice little revision timetable for the next 7 days which looks fully evil so I wont post it up here... For those not in the know I have my two main French and Spanish exams and 4 essays due next week...Oh what fun!

Did my french oral exam yesterday - not so good but we wont go there!! Just couldn't handle the pressure! Its funny cos my Spanish oral went sooooo much better and I can barely understand the language! Funny old life hey?!

I'm in a bit of a complaining mood... so thats what Im gonna do - PORTSMOUTH UNIVERSITY LANGUAGE LECTURERS ARE THE MOST DISORGANISED EVERRRRRR!! Ok, so you know Im away next year in France and Spain, studying in 2 universities...thats about all you know right?... well SAME HERE!!!!!! We had a meeting about our Spanish placement today and the general gist was like ''yeh, so u fly out a couple weeks before term...go to a hostel...then find somewhere permenant to live...go along to the uni...attempt to find a course co-ordinator and get them to enrole you on what courses you wanna do'' - YEH HELPFUL... :-S I would like to be somewhat more organised than that to be honest... but its not possible...Kinda scary but then again God's got it sorted right...! I guess I just need to really realise that God is in control and he is watching over all and guiding me so there's nothing to fear :)

To end, my wonderful chum Ceryn sent me this verse the other day and I thought It'd be a good'un to share! - Lamentations 3 v 22-23, reads:

Because of the Lord's great love
we are not consumed,
for His compassions never fail.
They are new every morning;
Great is your faithfulness.

How cooooool is that!!! Reeeally think about what that means!! We are not weighed down/consumed/crushed by anything, allllll because of God's love! His compassions are new everrrrrrry morning (and boy don't we all need that!) Great is His faithfulness! Awesome!
