Hmmm...
As usual, I have gone a few days without blogging and I have no idea what to write here. Oh well...
We had a practical on Wednesday in extracting DNA from E. Coli. It was really interesting, if slightly tedious... Having to shake a bottle of solution for half an hour wasn't fun...!! But hey, we got results, not the purest possible, butn I was happy with it!
OK...no I've run out of ideas. I'm sat in Jamochas...I have been in this shop everyday it has been open since last Saturday...James is on the phone next to me, Ben is two seats up from me on another computer and Dan is kinda working!!
Do be do be doooo!!

Aus
Just thought I would do a very quick post before the race...
For some reason it feels earlier (?later) than yesterday, 2am seemed natural yesterday, it seem silly today :S. Maybe that's because I tried to get a few hours sleep first, and slept like a child before Christmass, waking up every 5 minutes to see if it was time yet...!! But now it nearly is time. And this is just proving how mad, (and very tired!!) I am!!

Until next time...

That was the week that was...
Ok, the title's not great, but I have no idea what else to put. My friend Karen is down for the weekend from Southampton..!!! Yay!! We had tea in 'Spoons tonight and now we're at Dan's with Dan (obviously...), Ben, Ineke, and Hayley playing cards and listening to music.
We had a lab on Wednesday continuaing with our microbiology work. We had to streak agar plates with a culture mix to separate them, did a pour plate with diluted E.Coli solutions and made blood agar, onto which we smeared bacteria from our teeth...ew!
Now Dan is playing Bon Jovi, You give love a bad name very loudly...!!!
On Thursday we had to go back to look at our results...fun!! Then I had brunch in Jamocha's with one of my course mates before tutorial.
Today was quiet, washing, tidying, had breakfast at 'Spoons, at a very unreasonablt 9:30...on a day when I could have had a lie in...!!! Might explain why I'm so tired now..!!
The real excitement was yesterday when we had more water trouble with a burst pipe and flooding on the top floors, and no water for a few hours...fun!! Oh well...life goes on...!
Week report finished
Over and Out

Tuesday Cell
Its been two days since cell group. I've been meaning and wanting to write about it, but I've really struggled to find away to communicate it effectively. I'm going to try my best now, but who knows what will happen.
The main point of the evening was just to spend a lot of time in prayer and worship and really come open hearted to God and honestly and openly talk to Him and meet with Him.
We started with a time of worship, writing a letter to him and just thanking and praising Him.
We were asked about things that we would like prayer for, things that we felt needed prayer for. I had two major points weighing on my mind. One was a connection with God, something that I have felt slipping and fading, the other being mental healing. We were then asked if we felt more comfortable praying in small groups, which I did. At that time, even though there were only 7 of us, I felt like that was still too many. So we split, with Dan, Dan, Ben and Matt in one group and Rachel, Adam and I in the other group.
TBH, I was dreading it, I had to be open and honest, and that meant revisiting painful things. Not something anyone wanted to do. I had been vauge about the cause of the emotional hurt in the larger group, and it was good to feel able to tell the others what was going on. I didn't manage it with out the inevitable tears but there was so much love and comfort around me I felt safe to do that and almost forget the situation and focus on God and the prayers.
I don't know how long we were praying for. But the more we prayed to more everything changed. This is the really difficult bit to explain. When we felt ready to finish praying we did. Adam asked me how I felt. I felt drained, empty. The really strange thing was, whilst I was vaugly aware of what the main prayer points were, it was, and still is, very difficult to focus on them. It was always a small trigger that could set my mind off, but it no longer feels that way. We then prayed for a filling and restoring for me. Things felt different.
We then went on to pray for Rachel and Adam for the various things that they needed.
The connection feels more there. The knowledge that I always held hasn't changed. Just the feeling and my heart.
I hope that this conveys everything clearly. I am sorry about the fact that some parts of this have been vauge but I hope that the general points are there.
Until next time...

The Freestyle Funk Collective
The weekend was fairly normal, spent most of Saturday in Jamocha's with Kita, Ben and Sam. Then the evening we watched Men In Black 2 and watched the moon disappear and go red.
Today was mostly uneventful, nothing in the day, then church in the evening. After church, I joined up with a group of people who where going to see the band that Gaz (our worship leader) plays in. They are called the Freestyle Funk Collective. |It was a really nice end to the weekend, nice bit of music and dancing. I'm glad I went, even if I was just following people...lol
That's it for now,
Nite
