Was asked to blog. Hence: blogging!
@ 2008-05-30 - 18:26:08Hi everyone,
I have been asked to blog. This might not be very good. Just a random summary of what is happening:
* I finished my degree, don't know my grade yet, thinking 2:1.
* I am really struggling with Christian stuff. Not even sure I am one. I have never really wanted to be a Christian. It seems like a chore, and that God is trying really hard not to accept you for who you are. It's like "Change tuvwxyz and I might look at you." Of course, I look into my heart and see that there is no reason He should accept me. I haven't really "truly repented" or "invited Him in with my whole heart". I sort of resent having to do it. I am going to try and humble myself, though, because I really don't want to go to Hell.
* EDIT: Just decided to moan about FIFA. I think limits on foreign players will play straight into the hands of Chelsea, who will buy up the entire England squad and no-one else will be able to afford English players, due to the exchange rate. I don't buy the national side explanation, either. Italy have had foreign players in Serie A for years, and of course their national team is so much worse than England's... And even if Arsenal's English youngsters don't normally end up playing for Arsenal, they do usually end up in the Prem. I see the supposedly worst side for keeping English players out produced England's future star David Bentley... and Fabrice Muamba, and Anthony Stokes, and both Hoytes, and Kerrea Gilbert, and some Chelsea defender or other... I believe this attempt to reduce the number of foreign players is thinly veiled racism, which appeals to the worst part of people's natures. If it's genuinely not this, then it is very misguided in terms of the benefit people think it will bring to the game. I wait to be proven wrong (by which time, if it comes in 2012-13 season, I will be over 30... eek... might not care anymore... or be able to afford my season ticket, especially if they restrict the number of foreign players, causing us to spend more on English players who aren't as good as the foreigners we get for £3.5m and sell for lots!)
* Happier stuff: I have a boyfriend called Jakub who is loooooooovely and says HHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
* I just renewed my season ticket!
* I was at work today. Yesterday, first day back in months, I decided two of my workmates are Sims. One of them even looks like Caroline's supermodel sim, Essie. They were speaking Polish to each other, which might as well be Simlish to me (I know 5-10 Polish words and 2 are unrepeatable).
* My mum is scrubbing her front steps. Hello 1950!
* Audiosurf is addictive.
* I am supporting France, Croatia and Poland in Euro 2008. Cazza, Ros and I are going on an adventure next weekend, in which we hope to watch football with fans of at least 4 different nationalities and eat a very nice lunch at Ros' house. Any tips for a Swiss, Czech, Portuguese or Turkish location in north London? Ta muchly! Please all tell me who you're supporting in the Euros, I find it interesting. We're going to the good old Cadogan Arms, or wherever the CSYPN are going, to watch Austria-Croatia and somewhere Polish for Germany-Poland, with Jakub:D
* Caroline has met a Croatian 45-year-old Mourinho clone. I predict that he is fantastic.
* I'm feeling kind of excited, passionate and nice, so I'll leave it there!
I hope everyone there is fine. Praying for you all.
God bless, Jenni xx
