  1. Not to blog for a week (that'll be hard)
  2. Not to get lost on the way there (me and Craig are getting our bikes and a train)
  3. To read atleast 100 more pages of The End of Racism
  4. Not to get impatient with Craig
  5. Try not to make Craig impatient with me (I can be annoying sometimes too)
  6. Not too spend any money as i want to buy a guitar.
  7. Finally, enjoy my holiday and stop worrying about getting coursework done!

I hope no one has too much fun while im away!


I know i've blogged quite alot over the past few day's but im going away for a week tomorrow and i wont be blogging for a week. Unless i find internet access. I was chatting to Nick earlier and i was really glad to hear someone other than me to say there is some good music out there at the moment.

Here is some songs i think should be downloaded:

Coldplay- Till Kingdom come
Keane- Crystal Ball
The Killers- When You Were Young
The Felling- Never be lonely
Sandi Thom- What if im Right
The Kooks- She moves her own way
Snow Patrol- Chasing Cars
The Killers- Under the Gun

Im loving music at the moment. Just need to start playing myself!

The photo is just for you Roz!

' I'm oficially safe on the roads'
The title is sarcastic by the way. Today was the final day of getting my bike geared up. Systems check, new hand grips, new bike chain, new lights, new speed and time counter and a big fat mushroom head helmet.

This morning i had to drive down to Stratford to pick up my new helmet at Argos. It wasn't there so a freind got it for me at another Argos store. From Stratford i had to drive strait to Cable Street for the radio production and straight from Cable Street i had to ride to Victoria Park to pick up my helmet at my mates house and sort something out for them. It was a busy day on my bike.

Driving down Commercial road to Cable Street, i was cycling in the bus lane when a black car suddenly overtook me to turn onto another street causing me to jam my breaks and nearly tumble over the handle bars. For a second i wondered whether it was my fault i nearly smashed into this car but after a few seconds of reviewing what just happened i realised that i done nothing wrong and the driver in the black car was in the wrong. This driver did not in any way let me know they wanted to turn. They didn't slow down in anyway and begin to swap into the same as me. They just cut me up and in many senses could have knocked me down. I was so angry with this driver that i felt like going after them and pulling them up about what just happened or even just get their license number. Sadly they were out of sight before i got my mind strait.

I've narrowed the identity of the car and the driver down to: a male or a female with a mustache. It was a black car. The driver had gelled spiky hair and was wearing either a green, blue, white or bright orange t-shirt. If you manage to identify the car or driver then please take the licence number for me. Vengance will be mine!!

Does Man deserve to be saved?!
Last night i went to the cinema with Craig and Kelly. At first me and Kelly didn't really want to go see lady in the water because it was a PG and we wanted to go see a scary film, what a shock we was in for. Lady in the Water should be atleast a 12A and i mean it, i jumped out my seat.
One bit i will always remember about the film is when the care taker was having a conversation with one of the residents in an appartment and out of the blue the resident asked this question:
Does Man deserve to be saved?
The care taker replied optomistic with a "yes". Sometimes i'm angry with the
world and feel pessimistic and don't think we deserve to be saved. I mean just think about what we've done to the world:
We've created the Atom Bomb!
We've created a racist society!
We allow poverty to escalate!
A third of our world is at War!
We allow murderers, rapists and other terrible people to continue their ways!
We allow young boys and girls to be human trafficked!
We allow mass genocide to take place!
We allow the rain forest to be destroyed!
The sad thing is this list could go on and on!
There is days when I pray to God that he guides us away from the path of evil and into the path of righteousness. Theres days where i just feel like giving up. There is days when i have hope and there is days when i have doubt. Today i have hope! and this is why:
Luke 4: 18-20 "The Lord has put his Spirit in me, because he appointed me to tell the Good News to the poor. He sent me to tell the captives they are free and to tell the blind that they can see again. God sent me to free those who have been treated unfairly and to announce the time when the Lord will show his kindness"
Sometimes hope is all I have. Sometimes faith in God is all I have, but I bet no one could measure the infinitive size that faith in God is!

Its COOL to be a Christian!

Oh no its my second post in a row about being a Christian and how great it is. You know what its like when you get bored and your too tired and lazy to get of your ass to go out and do something. You sit on the internet all afternoon going on peoples blogs and skimming through peoples links and ending up on all different kinds of blogs. Well today i done that. I know im sad but hey i havent dossed about in ages plus i done another paragraph of History coursework. Searching through peoples blogs, i come across loads of blogs where people are young and they are Christian and they seem quite cool. So i have established that it is cool to be a Christian, so i wont care anymore when people in school laugh at me because im religious. There are cool Christians out there!...................I hope im one of them!

Trying to swallow the Bible!
Im at a point in my life where im very happy to be a Christian. Im really happy that God is in my life. Does that sound weird?

Its like all i want to be these days is the perfect Christian. Everything i do involves God in some way. I feel like all i want to do is celebrate the fact that God is in my life. I was reading Sarah Bowels blog the other day and on one of her famous lists it said that she used to want to be the best ever Christian, like perfect. I think im at that stage.

I don't think i will ever be "the perfect Christian" but i can try my best to make Gods Kingdom as perfect as possible and live up to the true meaning of Jesus Christ; who died for our sins and rose again to forgive us!

Who's being terrorized?!

Approximately one quater of the Lebonease population have been foced to seek refuge, thats almost a million people! Hundreads of thousands have also been evacuated South on the Israeli side.

But for what?

Nearly a thousand Lebonease civilians have been killed during the one month conflict. A third of them children.

I couldn't sleep the other night so i was awake watching Sky News. I was watching Kofi Annans speach at the UN HQ in New York and i kept thinking to myself what a bunch of hypocrites the UN are. One phrase i often remember coming up in a UN speech by Annan, "i am deeply dissapointed that a resoultion for peace wasn't put into action weeks ago". I mean its ok to make them mistakes once, perhaps even twice, but the UN are failing the people too often.

Why can't the UN be more militant. What we need is less dossing and more action. Don't they realise that hundreads of children have been killed in this war and if nothing happens soon the toll will continue to rise!

I got sunburn! :0(

Some advice to those of you who have fare skin. When you put the best sunscreen around on that is expected to last 24 hours, don´t trust it. I put the best sunscreen ever to hit the markets (yea right) on yesterday and i got burnt. Please feel sorry for me and when you put the so called best sunscreen on, don´t trust it and keep putting more and more over it!

Bonjour!
