Hi everybody! I do apologise for my absence. It is enforced: I have so much work to do, and I feel guilty if I write, but don't read and comment! But I've heard people are missing me, so decided to stick in a quick summary of recent events.

My Grandad died aged 92 on Good Friday, and I went to the funeral on the Isle of Wight. It was a great service. I loved the overtly Christian funeral, because the vicar was unafraid to talk about Grandad's death being a blessing, as he was very old and frail, and had great faith that he was going on somewhere better. I think my gran's going to be OK too - my dad's going to go over and help her as often as possible, which was why we moved to C/Ford in 1993 and has only just become useful!

I've got one essay in, have 2 to do, one of which is nearly ready to go I think, and then have 3 exams. Heaven knows how I'm going to get all this work done, but I'm deadline motivated, and as things get nearer, I will work harder! How was I so much more motivated last semester, though? I did far less work, but felt cleverer, better informed and more competent! Hmmm.

I've decided to go to Wesley Chapel full time, although I only seem to be able to make church every 2wks atm! I know it's awful, and really wish I'd gone yesterday.

Friday... hehe:) I am obsessed with a song called "Cowboy Film", which I heard whilst being driven round Walthamstow at 2.30am! Happy days! It took me a while to establish what the song was. Googling didn't work because whoever typed the lyrics in had written "flim" instead of "film". Easily done!

Arsenal have started winning, being able to play badly and win, when it's FAR too late. I've started a Facebook group calling on people not to leave early! The topless three - Diaby, Eboue and Adebayor - tickled my fancy yesterday as well:)

Right, I think I'd better turn that in there! Hope you're all really well, having fun et al.

God bless, Jenni xx

Well hello stranger!

Sorry to hear about your Granddad but I'm glad he had faith he was going on to a better place.

Have fun with the essays/exams!

Thanks:) I remember my Grandad aged 91, at Christmas 2005, struggling with the stairs or something, and asking God why he was being kept here, which made my mum cry... but I was kind of asking God to take him when the time was right, as he'd become a burden to my gran and had to go into an expensive home.

I'll do my best to enjoy uni work! How are you?

God bless xx

Yeah, I'm not too bad ta, same crap different day :))

Haha, yes, I'm hoping my life will stop being like that soon!:))

God bless xx

That explains the title. does sound like the Irish pronounciation; filim.

Ooh, I'd never noticed that in the Irish accent! Maybe the person trying to type the lyrics out was Irish or something!

Now, what shall I buy my mum for her birthday?!

God bless xx

My uncle's pronounce it that way; could be an Irish thing, or just a Laois thing.

Laois? I've been there? Oh hang on, no, that's Laos. What is/are Laois?

God bless xx

Laois is where (half) my Dad's family are from. Beautiful place; bit quiet, but then I am from London! :D

I like to go to those places in the holidays, like the Island! Like I say, they're great places to be born and die: London is for in-between!

God bless xx

Wasn't your mum's birthday yesterday? tut tut

I know, I thought about it all day Thursday, then forgot about it on Friday, and remembered it at 4pm on Saturday, which was far too late:( Bought her a Newcastle top yesterday. Did remember to ring her on Sunday.

God bless xx

Shouldn't that be fillum...

"Down with this sorta thing... Careful now..."

Ahh, Father Ted...

Aww, you've got to WIN!

I hope you do, and I'll try and stick around, although I'm very busy!

Thanks a lot. Hope all goes well for Liverpool in the Champions' League tonight! Shame they're going to lose to AC in the Final, but still, you can't have everything in life...;)

God bless xx

Hope you enjoyed watching us get rid of Chelski! I can't wait for the Final but we are in for another nerve wracking evening whoever we get! I have a feeling it will be Man U!

No, it wasn't! YAAAAAY!
Whatever happens, hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed you getting rid of Chelsea... A LOT!

God bless, Jenni xx

Milan looked scary last night! But I am hoping that we won't give them as much space!

ViEiRAViEiRA [Member]

Maybe they'll roll over and die against you after actually playing football against another English club, like PSV did. :hides: ;)

Seriously though, I hope it's a great game and the best team wins, cliché/yadda yadda;)

God bless xx

OOOH hadn't thought of that! The only pattern I'd noticed is that we keep beating Zenden's old clubs, but I don't think he played for AC Milan! :DD

I know there are "Friends of Ours" in AC Milan!

Great to have you back again.

Congratulations for the way that you have kept on going regardless of the hardships.

I guess that you are aware that there have been major changes here since last we met.

May tomorrow be an even happier day for you than today has been.

Not really... what's happened here? Apart from a "processing" button?

Thanks a lot for the good wishes!:) Hope your life is going really well!

God bless xx
