summer holidays

so today i have completely flaked out - its quite unbelievable but after all my written exams yesterday i just really needed to - feeling a bit guilty about lack of work but i am sure tomorrow, and the next day, and the next day will make up for that. what was most exciting is that i booked a short holiday for late june, after my job shadowing with my good friend liz here .i cannot actually believe we will be reading books (of a non-medical variety), lazing on beaches, cycling, enjoying some good wine and generally relaxing, with no agenda - i only wish it was for more than 3 night! ha ha.... i can't believe i managed to complain at the end of that! i know, i know i have nothing to complain about! am in fact feeling oh so very thankful at the mo - its a good feeling!

Born to blind parents, William Fitzsimmons has come up trumps with his second album "Goodnight". Admittedly the lyrics are quite sad at times, as he writes a lot about the break up and divorce of his parents during his adolescence, and he's honest - but that honesty makes truly beautiful tunes. Plus his beardy image makes him look pretty interesting too! Click here to share in the auditory delight.

03:48 I can't sleep; He never sleeps

So as the post title indicates it is late or early (?!) and I am wide awake! It seems that recently although I have been hitting the hay after midnight, I have been waking up for no apparent reason just a few hours later, anytime between 0200 and 0600. So this morning I lay awake and decide to listen to some "Lifehouse" songs and ponder..... well its not hard to do friends - my diurnal clock is totally dead right now. So as I do this, I think about Psalm 121 , a favourite of mine, and one a good friend reminded me of in a text yesterday; I look up the following verse: He who watches over Israel never sleeps or slumbers Psalm 121: 4 So God, He never sleeps, He never slumbers - what does He get up to then? Hmmm - ange, big thoughts - i know that's what you're thinking - err NOT! You are thinking ange - get back to bed and let God do His not sleeping thing - He does it so I don't have to I guess. But tonight, this morning I am quite happy to join him - it is in

everybody knows it sucks to grow up
