So, two years later!

Updates: Still teaching at the same school. Now I've got my own Modern History class, as well as 9 and 10 musics and a 10 sose class.
Work is hectic at the moment as there is lots of marking to be done.

Getting married in September this year :) on International talk like a pirate day! Proposed in March 2008 to L. We've been living together in an apartment in the city since March :) (one year of living together anniversary tomorrow!)

Dropping out of youth leading this year, things getting a bit too hectic, but still going back from time to time. Leading Lazer (older youth sunday school) on the weekends as a part of a three person team.

Realised I am slightly left-wing in my political philosophy! huzzah! Also, have affirmed that I am not a literal interpreter of the Bible. Also huzzah!

Am currently playing Viola with the Brisbane Symphony Orchestra, several concerts a year!

Have kept playing WoW and seeing friends when I get the chance! and am into facebook :) add me! (I think im already friends with Nathan)

So, what has life taught me these last two years?

1) Saying No is ok.
2) to stand up for myself if I'm being mistreated with no justification.
3) That I love L.
4) That love has many faces and that it can be hard, but ultimately worthwhile.
5) That relationships with real friends stay the same no matter how long it has been since you saw them
6) The world can be a cold, dark, and unfair place where greed, ignorance and anger drive many to mistreat eachother.
7) That the role of a Christian should be to be a conduit of love in your community. To teach others how to show love in their lives, and how to care about people besides themselves.
8) That our apartment is indeed not very well ventilated!
9) The older I get the more i value what has gone before. yet, i can't but help looking forward :)
10) The birth of many children of my friends is a blessing to them and me, but has also shown me I'm not yet ready for that :D
11) Education is still the key to greater opportunity and better standards of life.

How do you sum up 2 years in one post?
You can't :)
I'll try to be more regular.

My love to all out there :D
