Chase the clouds away!

Another Friday has graced us with its presence and once again the clouds dominate the sky. But hey, don't be gloomy, it's another day to do a good deed to a friend, colleague or family member; a new day to say something encouraging to someone who's down; a new day to smile and thank the Lord for all his goodness.

After my 'nightmare' last week over my big essay, I finally got my result yesterday, and I have to say that it wasn't anywhere near what I was expecting. So considering how anxious I was about this one and how underprepared I was for it, you can imagine my surprise when I got a 'B' baby - yeah! That's right, uh-huh, a 'B' baby, 'B' baby, yeah, uh-huh, uh-huh, oh yeah!
Now whether my tutor had had a heavy dose of the chills or a nasty hangover when he marked mine and meant to type in '45%' instead of the '75%' he gave me, I'll never know, but quite frankly, I don't care. All I know is that I just have to scrap over the pass mark of 40% in my exam in October and I'll pass this course.
So, I'm having a good morning already. I had a great night last night with some guys from church over the most wonderful Mexican meal I have ever laid my taste buds on (thanks to the Beadles!) and tomorrow - just in case I haven't mentioned it - I'm going to Twickenham with Mr Triathlon himself and I can't wait.
But first, I need to get back to the glossing. It's great that painting the walls is a doddle and takes barely no time at all, but doing gloss work takes forever and it stinks.
Anyhoo - hello to anyone who has just noticed my blog for the first time - nice to have you along and I hope you enjoy the songs, the pics, the movie recommendations, etc.

Viva the weekend!
