So much to do!
It is less than four weeks away! Very scary and September seems to be going really quickly. I am off to Leicester on Monday for my training week, looking forward to finally meeting Lizzie Sophie and Amber. I have spoken to Sophie quite a lot on MSN but it has been mainly emails every so often. I am going up to Leicester by train, so of course there is a train strike on Monday! Should be ok though, just means quite an early start to catch the 7.18. I get to Leicester an hour and a half before I need to be at the uni and I don't have my Starbucks card anymore! I dont know how I am going to cope for a whole month with no Starbucks discount!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hopefully Clare will get a job though so I can beg off her.
I have spent so much money in the last week it's ridiculous, Clare and I went to Bluewater on uesday and I spent £60 in Boots alone, scary amount, but I now have a lot less to worry about forgetting to buy, does that make sense? I also bought two skirts lovely black things.
We got an email the other day from our overseer in Mozambique Marina, she coordinates everything and was on the first Mozambique team. She said that as our churches are more on the outskirts than other teams have been, they are more conservative so we have to wear skirts for work, methinks that charity shop shopping is needed. My bag is loooking smaller and smaller the more I realise I have to take. It is a lovely bag though. My sleepign bag is breaking!!!!! My lovely red stretchy at the knees sleeping bag, th ebag that it comes in is ripping at the seam above the compression straps which sort of defeats the object. Sob Sob
I had my first blood test on Monday to find out my blood group, silly Rachel didnt give blood in time so had to go private, I have a really cute little bruise there now. Just one left now. I am getting quite used to having needles stuck in me now, I had my ears pierced again on Monday, I have waited three years to have it done so very Happy!
After Leicester I am off up to visit Nana and Poppa( hello!) and having my hair chopped off, how short do you reckon? katie had hers cut before disappearing off to Vietnam and it looked really nice.
Speaking of she has been in Vietnam for two weeks now. Caz Leanne and I went with her family to the airport in our funky 'Katie does Vietnam' tshirts and stunning hats. It was so sad everyone cried when we said goodbye. It was especially weird knowing that in a few weeks it would be me, I think that I am going to be a blubbering wreck!
Anywho, please pray for next week, particularly that we all get on. x
