well, theres lots of cool new stuff happening in reading family church. a new meeting really ups the ante for everyone involved. i almost fell asleep in the evening meeting though. even in the midst of drumming for the worship, i sensed i wasnt aware of what i was doing! looking back a year ago, im glad i made a decision to get stuck in to this church. its definitely taught me a lot. its worth the exchange of not being independent - a maverick kind of christianity never did let me be a part of something that will last forever, and it also means ill be less prone to making stupid mistakes with no point of reference.
ive been running a lot lately too. and with the reading half marathon coming up all too soon, theres lots of runners about! ive been doing the 5km parkrun quite a bit, but sadly my time is getting worse. in fact, last week was the worst time, a full 2 minutes away from my personal best! i hope that is because im gearing myself for slower miles whens theres 13 of 'em. And i am heartily enjoying the extra amount of food that it takes to fuel all these runs =)
and maths? well, im glad to have done the course, but theres a lot of ignorance to plead on my part. i just hope that these years will count towards something. ive often said that id be happy to do any old job thatll let me stay in reading. but i would love to be able to use some of the cool maths ive heard about - i just know those jobs are often so lucrative and 2.1 centric that they are beyond my reach. there are a few that don't demand this as much, but they are competitive to get. im well aware how much i dont like job hunting, as college days will testify, and i think through Gods help theres some old fears i know ill be facing.
