well...
this morning when I woke up, I couldn't move. My head, my neck, my back, my legs....pretty much every part of my body just ached. The only thing to do is just to bin everything you planned to do during the day and stay in bed and drink lots and lots of TEA!
Saw a film last night "shooting Dogs", about the war in Rewanda....scary...and real and it makes you think, a great deal. Was crying after the film, for the cruelty, but even more for the apathy
to not care for people. Makes you think..what makes me better than them....what do I do to be less apathic, more loving and more brave. It made me realize (also after just finishing J. pullingers "Chasing the dragon") that you can't really do it by yourself (I know I can't). To love and to really care about a strangers life, you need to feel God's love for them. When no one else loves...it's hard to love, but it is what Jesus did...

i'm back...
hi all!!
Hope you're doing GREAT!
After lots of "why don't you update you blog", I'm finally doing it!
3 days ago I got a computer (well got, I payed for it!) and I'm scared...me and technical stuff jusdt don't mix very well...so after just looking at it for hours, I rang a friend and he came and helped me out with it....bless him...for his patience. It's all good now, I think I know sort of what's om the computer...probably....
So new year at uni, doing an extra couse in addition to my normal studies, now the couse is religions. It's very very challenging doing the cousre on a seculare univerisity, but it gives you insight to what other people think and feel and you realize how blessed you are with God's precense in your life. I don't need all the scientific explanations...it all comes down to following God's voice.
Trying to explain stuff to the others in my class, lots of them are (naturally) very intresseted in the religion, I'm trying to tell them what God does to the heart....
Been thinking of you all very much lately..might be the weather (aka RAIN) :)
I'm well, alive and grateful
Bless you

so the conference was great!! Thank you all for GREAT company, so nice to catch up with all of you... I really loved every minute of it and did't really want to go home...
but I had to...to the harsh reality including LOADS and loads of studying...:( but that's life. I alway find it quit difficult to get back to reality after a conference. With all that overwhelming information (and rediscovery) you can at times feel very small. It has resulted in quit a few interesting converations, and david's first question was if God heald my cold...:)
again, thank you all for 4 incredable days, I can't even start do discribe what it ment to me, and it was all because of all you lovely people.
All my love/ Lingonberry

you get older every day...
It was with mixed emotions I celebrated my birthday...22..old. In my family, everyone has diceded to have their birthday in jan, not everyone, but it's 5 of us!! That equals A LOT of parties, lots of catching up with relatives and lots of food. But everyone has that feeling of enough is ENOUGH!! So I've diceded that my next visit will be in the distant future.
Had a txt from Emma a couple of hours ago, she's on her way to Bristol, take care of her!!
I've been thinking a lot abuot the leaders conf, if I have the money and time to go...my heart beats faster everytime I'm thinking of it. With the help of God, everything is possible, but it looks pretty dark right now...
Anyway, whoever put my education together thought it would be abrilliant idea to have a course in buissnessecomomics, and a absolutly hate every second of it, partly because I don't get it..just two more weeks to go so I'll try to hang in there.
My birthday was great, David began singing for me on the sunday and didn't stop until my birthday, kind of cute, but at the same time... singing is not his cup of tea... :)
We ate a dinner and then we played risk with some friends, nice and quiet. That's a sign btw, when you're older and muture you appreciate the calm birthday celebration...who am I kidding!
Time for me to return to my books, try to understand...phu

Hi all...
...hope you'll well. An update's coming up, fasten your seatbelts :)
Finally I've got my own computer...a bit slow though
i'm not going to kid you nor me, it's soooooo slow, but it suits me, so I'm keeping up eith the world wide webb...
First of all, I had a great time when Mark C came to visit. Very funny acually, he hichiked all the way from Malmö to Halmstad (btw, you don't really do that in swe...public transportation works for us...) witch made me scared, because it's not that common, but I guess thatt god was on Mark's side during the trip.
anyway, we really had a laugh, hung out, talked and played some pool (I rocked, but mark rocked even more) with some friend and my boyfriend, David.
THANKS for all the hello's and prayer send to me with mark!! i reallt appriciated that, felt close to Bristol and it's people. Thanks Rach, you really touched me and it brought me back to all the good times we had! Miss you loads loads loads. The card has a really special place in my flat, reading it often and wonder if you did it yourself?
I hope that mark passed on the notes to the people, no-one namned, no-one forgotten!
At this mo, my lodger is struggeling with empy the bin...hihi it gets a bit crowded with two people in a 29 square meter flat, but we're making i work the best we can. God keeps bringing me people to share God with, and it's great, but scary at times!
Uni is great, feel like it's my cup of tea, but it's not alway easy (takes a huge amount of studying, and I'm learning to get better at it...hihi, slowly) and the people I rub shoulders with are really a blessing and keeps me on the right track i.e study hard :)
Btw, Angela, thinking of the camels every day, the first thing on my mind when I get up and it sticks with me all day...a million thanks
Bless you all, hope to hear from you soon.
