break it down gentlemen

After both popular demand for an update, and popular demand to have some slack cut for myself (if that even makes sense...?) HERE my friends, is an update!

Just had a humbling experience in the car with Dad to Officeworks and back, in the rain! I think those experiences happen a bit to P drivers (well, me at least :P) when you realise that it's not all instinct and you're not quite 'all that' yet when it comes to driving, lol...

Found out bit more about one50 dance today- wait, i'd better work backwards so you guys actually know what i'm talking about! On fri, after seeing them at school, at the last min jaz, lib, liv and I decided to venture into Blackwood to go see the Nubian Gents. Who are the Nubian Gents? I didn't know either, but they're this awesome group of Christian African American guys from New York who do hip hop/street/funk dancing, with a bit of singing chucked in as well, who are down in Aus. for a while on tour (Truth Tour in fact). 4 of them came in on fri and did their stuff in the quadrangle at recess and everyone was riveted which was cool- that doesn't always happen with Christian stuff! So anyway, one50's an aussie girl gp who does the same type of dancing, and i just really enjoyed it bcoz 1) its just funky dancing, the sort that makes you love life when ur doing it (or watching it, wanting to do it!), and 2) whilst actually being cool, it wasn't promoting the body, but was aimed at glorifying God which is kind of rare! There's a local gp apparently, so gonna investigate that...

Been thinking about my future 'pathway' lately, mainly bcoz we have to put in our uni application thingo's soon, ahh!! Prob having a gap yr next yr to work, and travel for a few months in the middle/end of the yr, but AFTER here are the things that are floating around my head, could be either/or, could be mixtures: 1) Bachelor of Arts (what i like to call the 'student of life' type subject, nice and general, all kinds of interesting stuff! Ahh, to be and arts student...), 2) double degree fine arts and classical studies, 3) something at Tabor college or Bible college SA, and/or 4) some form of missionary work (decided i should prob pray about stuff to come up for that! mission 'experience' (few wks/months)/short term/ even long term?? Atm there's a vague possibility of a team from church going over to the Cook Islands at some stage... But i don't want to go just for the sake of it, i actually want to do meaty, challenging, useful God stuff!!
