How's your love life?
I find that as I get older, the decisions that I have to make get bigger and more difficult. I haven't been able to sleep that well lately, because there's been so much going around in my mind. It seems like I'm in a major in-between stage at the moment. I'm trying really hard to change- to be more content, wherever I am. I'm trying to take a break from anything stressful at the moment, but it's pretty difficult. I'm so used to feeling anxious about deadlines and that sort of thing. So I've been praying a lot that God will help me to change, and that I will be able to trust Him to provide for me. I was reading my webjournal from around this time last year, and it seems like so much has changed. Back then, my parents still had the cafe, and I spent so much time doing uni work. I liked a different boy, and hung out with different people, and went to a different church. Sometimes I feel like things change in my life too fast and too constantly. But then I remember that it was my choice to change things, and also that it was ultimately God's plan.
Bible study was so fantastic last night! It was the first time I was in a Bible study with Clio. It was fun giggling with her. I remembered that I was supposed to bring supper about an hour before I left the house, so I ended up making fairy bread. Yum! I love fairy bread!
This is one of my latest observations. You know how they seem to have a Cosmopolitan magazine for everything? Like, there's the normal Cosmopolitan, and then Cosmopolitan Bride, Cosmopolitan Mum (or something like that), CosmoGirl and Cosmopolitan Beauty. Well, I think that they should have Cosmopolitan Egg, to cater for girls who really like Easter eggs. And inside, they should have a quiz that is called, "What egg are you?" That is what I was thinking, anyway, when I was wandering around the Easter egg department at work, all sleepy-eyed from my parents' party the night before. There's so many different Easter eggs there that you really could assign a different person's personality to each one. I think that I'm this one called "Speckles"- it's this white chocolate Easter egg with hundreds and thousands mixed into it, made by this expensive Australian brand. I was tossing up between Speckles and this really princessy Earnest Hillier one. It's in a white box, and there's like about four Easter eggs in there, wrapped up with white bows. You can get the eggs in pastel shades of pink, purple, blue and green. They're so princessy (and pretty expensive, as well), that I imagine that the only people who give them are princes or knights who rock up to castles to ask for your hand in marriage while wishing you a happy Easter at the same time.
Oh, and one more thing. Do you think that the questions, "How's your love life?" and "So, do you have a boyfriend?" are rude? I was expecting my parents' friends to ask me heaps more than they did on the night of their party. I dread that question! But, as it turns out, a lot of other people don't think it's offensive at all. One of my friend's mums said that asking that question was the same to her as saying, "How's uni going?" or "How's work?" In "Bridget Jones' Diary", Helen Fielding wrote this: "Why can't married people understand that this is no longer a polite question to ask? We wouldn't rush up to them and roar, 'How's marriage going?'" What do you think? Please post your opinion (and don't forget to leave your name) by simply clicking 'Post' down below!
