Lasts

This week is very much a week of lasts. Last chapel, last church history lecture, last time of lining up for food, and so on.

The funny thing is you would think that finishing up would give us some confidence in what we have learnt. But if anything college has shown me that I am a mere human, and don’t know much, and never will!! So the feeling of inadequacy is definitely there at the moment.

But there are also lots of other strange feelings. Like the fact that we realise we are really going to miss the strange place that is Bible college.

We are going to miss the three sermons a week we are privileged to hear. We are going to miss the constant learning about the Bible. We are going to miss eating our meals with 100 other people.

This has lead to this week of lasts being a rather emotional week, and not just cause exams are just around the corner!

Holidays...

So we just spent our 2 weeks of holidays at home hanging around. Here is a bit of a snapshot of what we did:

• Thought through decisions about next year...which resulted in the booking of the boat!


• Visited different parts of Sydney including the Pleasantville village of Breakfast point...which resulted in being weirded out by Sydney.


• Read Jane Eyre & reflected on the loss of the English language in today’s society...which resulted in many conversations in old English.


• Watched lots of the West Wing...which resulted in me thinking that I was receiving all the up to date news.


• Surfed the internet, cause it was actually working...which resulted in many ebay bidding wars.


• Went shopping for clothes...which resulted in many fustrating hours spent, & nothing bought.


• Marty went on some fishing trips... which resulted in once again being disappointed by the lack of fish in NSW.
