Ode to my flatmate

Blind these eyes, who've never tried, to see your Undies.
I'm so scared, wheres the hesitation?
You so easily proved that you could flash a (wo)man,
Well I am that (wo)man...

Chorus: It's better off this way, to be blind, blind, or blind
than to be looking your way, your way...
It's better off this way; to be scratching out my eyes
than to be sitting where I am, I am...

Still your legs, for I am blinded by this wicked vision,
why'd you wear a skirt, so flowing and free?
Oh flouro pink, assaulting my eyes,
well I'm flashed, flashed...

(chorus)

[Thanks to Jennifer Knapp for the inspiration that was "The Way I Am", a truly awesome song (and totally unrelated to undies)]

Saturday 30th April

13 more days until the Special Day !!!!!!

(and 11 more days until Dan_O_Doom comes back!!! yay!)
Argh! I just lost the game!

Happy Birthday to Reuben for Tomorrow =)
We went to Kate and Godo's wedding this morning, it was truly lovely :) Godo was an amusing mix of tears, grins, and winking eyebrows throughout the ceremony. Its probably one of the coolest weddings I've been to simply because you could really see just how in love the two were...
Then we went to Jimmy and Joy's for lunch, which was awesome, and we got to see lots of cool wedding pictures.
Argh! Too many weddings! Hehe...

Mrs Yangs blogs will have some new quotes soon... so go there, go there NOW!!

Words of wisdom from Walker

Todays Sentence of Supremacy: Never let girly handwriting stand in the way of true love

yup.

And Ruth's majestic quote:
She was talking about Andre a lot, and she said to Ray "Don't worry, my favourite topic of conversation will die soon"

yup. That is truly majestic. In fact it reminds me of when Sally and Steve first started going out and Sally kept making all sorts of bad quotes about Steve like "I settled for second best [Fraser was my first choice]" It didn't go exactly like that, but thats basically what it said. Anyway, what i remember is that for the first few weeks Sal kept making really burninatory quotes about Steve, heh heh!

Yes well thats enough of that! Now I am going to clear up the Toaster mystery for you all!
On Wednesday after Easter, Kelly and Olivia (Breo's flatmates) came over to fetch back Breo's vacuum cleaner. Upon finding that we weren't home, they decided to come around the back of our property, try the door, and enter our house (the little crooks). They couldn't find Breo's appliance, so they decided to steal one of ours. (as you do). The two thieves took our toaster, complete with crusty old piece of toast still inside.
On Friday, our replacement toaster went missing, and you all know that story.
Anyway Jeremy confessed to us last Wednesday, and Kelly and Olivia's story came out on Saturday! Yay! Finally we have both toasters back, and our confusion has been cleared up!
If anyone wants to know the precise details of how we got the first-stolen toaster back, ask Mrs Yang. Basically it involves Ruth, Andre, Nathan, and some match-making.

If anyone feels like offering consolation to Mrs Yang, she has lost her first single flatmate...

If anyone feels like helping to lose the other single flatmates, your help would be much appreciated.

Also, My romance puke bucket, which has been out of use since Estie and Jeremy haven't been around, is now back in full swing!! (well hopefully not swinging too high...)

Diary entry, Friday 22nd April

Today I broke off my engagement with Earnest, the weather still continues charming.

I was in the middle of preparing my breakfast this morning when, to my horror, i discovered that a wayward fork had breached the barrier separating him from the other cutlery. He was looking very cosy, snuggled up to eight spoons. I quickly moved the rebellious fork back into his area, where his top half promptly fell back into the spoon area. I was sure i could hear the little spoonies squeal with delighted horror. "There'll be none of those there shenanegans in this house" I cautioned him, and moved the seductive implement into the correct section of the tray. This time he stayed in his place, so I selected the most traumatised spoon to consume my cereal with, and continued on my way.
In reaction to the preceding horror, today's Sentence of Supremacy is: "There shall be no fraternisation amongst the cutlery."

Proclaimation

I REMEMBERED WHAT I WANTED TO POST ABOUT! *Ruefully lowers head* I wanted to post about how awesome God is, but i forgot. Isn't that awful?
Just to reinforce how human I am, i will also defile this post with this weeks Sentence of Supremacy: Every good princess needs to be wooed
Yes. My Evil Advisor and I came up with that one!
When I was writing my Spanish History essay last week I stumbled upon a whole section of a reference book devoted to serenading. Heh heh! A man could only serenade a woman if he was a) betrothed to her, b) desperately in love, although this would often result in his being escorted off the fair maiden's property, or c) trying his luck, in which case the lady's husband or brothers would get rid of him very quickly. Tee hee!! So there'd better be no serenading at my balcony or Mrs Yang chase away you.
Hey has anyone seen Mrs Yang's rule sheet? You should... (But in order to do that you'll have to go to her house) Oh the beauty of taking verses out of context!

Now... on to the exciting part! The more i do this, the more it will feel like its true, to add to the fact that i know its true.

Praise the Lord! It is good to sing praise to our God;
it is pleasant and right to praise him.
He heals the broken hearted and bandages their wounds.
He has decided the number of stars
and calls each one by name.
Great and mighty is our Lord;
his wisdom cannot be measured.

I remember the days gone by;
I think about all that you have done,
I lift up my hands to you in prayer;
like dry ground my soul is thirsty for you.
Every day I will thank you.
I will praise you for ever and ever.
The LORD is great and to be highly praised;
his greatness is beyond understanding.
What you have done will be praised from one generation to the next;
they will proclaim your mighty acts.
They will speak of your glory and majesty,
and I will meditate on your wonderful deeds.
I will proclaim your greatness.
They will tell about all your goodness
and sing about your kindness.
The LORD is loving and merciful,
slow to become angry and full of constant love.
The LORD is faithful to his promises;
he is merciful in all his acts.
He helps those who are in trouble;
and lifts those who have fallen.
I will always praise the LORD;
let all his creatures praise his holy name for ever.
Let them all praise the name of the LORD!
His name is greater than all others;
his glory is above earth and heaven.
With my heart I will thank the LORD
How wonderful are the things the LORD does!
All he does is full of honour and majesty;
his righteousness is eternal.
In all he does he is faithful and just;
all his commands are dependable.
They last for all time;
they were given in truth and righteousness.
He set his people free and made an eternal covenant with them.
Holy and mighty is he!
He is to be praised for ever.

That will do for today. Those words were selected from Psalms around 110 and 140.

VICTORY TO MRS YANG!

Oh boo hoo... i've been sick for the last three weeks :( All my nasty friends gave me their Easter Camp cold, which I got rid of two weeks later. BUT on Sunday I started getting sick again =( So now i have a sore throat/ coughing thing. And I can't go to the doctor cos my community services card has expired and i can't afford to pay, lol!

Anyway, I will stop feeling pathetic now!

A great victory has been won- Jeremy admitted stealing our toaster! Last night we went round to his flat and he cooked tea for us! Maybe this was to placate us for later when he confessed taking our precious toaster! We also played psychiatrist and two of Jeremy's flatmates were in agony trying to work it out!
Unfortunately, the others cottoned on, and began to milk it...Luckily I had my darling flatmates on my side and when personal information nearly slipped out, we just clammed up. Thankyou, my pretties!

I think there was actually a purpose to posting, but I can't remember exactly what it was that I wanted to rant about!
Ooh! I got a job! It's only 3 hours a week childminding, but at $11 an hour it will be really helpful =)
Aah well, I still can't remember, so i'm going to go do some study !! (If you believe me)

breakfast with waffle

Just a little random post with things i want to share:
1. SAM is now my evil advisor - Every princess (daughter of the KING) needs an evil advisor (evil in a good way), so as of Tuesday 19th April, Sam takes over this role.
2. Navs is evil! Last night i got home and couldn't sleep cos it had stimulated my brain so much! Finally at 12.30 i just had to get up and read the Sermon on the Mount. At 1.30am i finally put my bible down and went to sleep.
3. God is cool. I think breakthrough comes when we don't just plough on, acknowledging God, but when we rejoice and praise him, and proclaim Him as King of our lives. I'm back on track, which is good.
4. Helen's going away party is on Saturday night. Don't forget it!
5. I went to the gym yesterday for the first time this year! Finally I am making use of my $80 membership! Its good cos i'm hurting in different places.. ouch!!
6. Next monday is ANZAC day... i didn't even realise until someone mentioned that it was a public holiday. I think i'm going to find myself a service to go to... usually my Mum, Dad, and I go, so maybe I can go see them, or just find something in the Big Smoke. I like (read: feel really moved and sad) at ANZAC day services. I was planning to be in Gallipoli this time next year, on one of my many different "what i'm going to do next year" ideas. I've decided that i'd like to go in 2015 for the 100th anniversary, too.

Okay, well thats enough for now... i should get dressed and start studying for my 2 quizzes and Big Test in the next 1.5 weeks!

Oh and - soon the special day will arrive. Prepare yourselves. It is only 3 more weeks.

Great day of Tribulation has come

Check out the tres cool leaflet we got in the mail last week:

It is titled: GREAT TRIBULATION IS AT HAND
-Unprecedented Tribulation in the whole world!
THE GREAT DAY OF GOD'S WRATH HAS COME !


*Behold ! The evil power of Satan is becoming increasingly rampant. Kings and rules of the world are rebelling against God and men have hardened their hearts. Criminal skills in robbery, theft, murder, killing, adultery, drug abuse, terrorism, are more subtle than ever; false doctrines seem to be spreading everywhere, The world is torn with wars and every country is engaged in destructive arms race........ There is the global weird weather, endless outbreaks of disasters and diseases

*During World War II, it was easy for the rich to fly to other countries for refuge. But in this era, no place is a refuge. A nuclear bomb explosion is sufficient to destroy all the human kingdoms. The TV reports: The central temperature would reach 20 million degrees and anything near the center of the blast would melt instantly. Places within the radius of 20km would be engulfed in towering infernos. Forests would be on fire, and the usually calm and serene lakes would be boiling. Tires and fuel tanks, furniture and household appliances would burst into flames. Human being would suffer from severe burns, and their skins would be charred at an incredulous speed...
Friends! What would you do if the catastrophic events were to take place today? All unbelievers and the ungodly, unrighteus, hypocritical and nominal Christians shall be left in the Great Tribulation. None can escape the wrath of the Lamb.

THE SMOKE OF BURNING BABYLON (HUMAN KINGDOMS) IS RISING STEADILY
Babylon has fall!

PEOPLE OF HE EARTH ! FLEE FROM BABYLON- THE HUMAN KINGDOM !

RETURN TO THE NTC- GOD'S KINGDOM, LEST YOU SHOULD PERISH TOGETHER WITH BABYLON !

*God's anger is kindled! The Tribulation has begun! A voice from Heaven say, "Come out of that city (Babylon- human kingdoms) , my people so that you will not share in her sins "

THE WAY TO ESCAPE THE TRIBULATION AND INTO THE GOD'S KINGDOM- New Heaven New Earth


*In the hell where" their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched. "
*The Church have to:" Having been built up on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone "

*Before the great Tribulation, saints who overcome the New Testament Church will be caught up to the Heaven first. (I Thessaloniass 4 : 17)

*People of the earth! you should take hold of the chance to repent and accept the Gospel before the Great judgment day comes. Accept Jesus as your savior, receive the complete Truth of Blood, Water and Holy Spirit. depart from the oppressive systems ( military, politics, economy, education, religions, culture, ...) of the evil human kingdoms and the Denominations, Return to the glorious New Testament Church rebuilt by the Holy Spirit; submit to the apostles' leading that is in accordance with God's will and truth of the Bible

Prayer
Loving Lord and Savior Jesus, pray have mercy and save a sinner like me. In my ignorance, I had followed the Devil to sin. I had no peace in thie world, and world have had to suffer eternally in the lake of fire in the next world. But I thank Thee for thou bast suffered, shed Blood and died for me on the Cross to redeem my precious soul. Please forgive me. I was unforgiving and disobedient to my parents. I killed and stole. I practised witchcraft, worshipped idols, and loved worldly pleasures. I was an alcoholic. I smoked, gambled, attended movies, danced, read obscene publications and listened to indecent stories and music... In the victorious Name of the Lord Jesus and relying on His precious Blood, i rebuke the evil spirits and demons of sicknesses to depart from me. (...) Please deliver my loved ones from Babylon (human kingdoms) so that they may be baptized into the New Testament Church, and walk in Thy will for the rest of their lives.



Heh! I've cut a few bits out, but you still get the wrathful gist, and the spelling mistakes are supposed to be there!!

a loud growling is heard in the background...

Argh. I'm hungry... so very hungry. But there's nothing I want to eat.
I have my duck and squirrel for company as i write this post.
I realised last night that i am lonely. In general. I need to get out more and make some more/new friends. Or maybe i just need to be better friends with Jesus. The intentions are back (they'd been on holiday/strike for a while), but its so hard just sitting down (or doing the pentecostal wander) to pray, or to read something meaningful out of the bible, or stop and have a proper chat to God. Not just the 11th hour prayer of "help God, I'm sick". I suppose he'd appreciate more if i talked to him about everything rather than just what i'm specifically not happy about.
Actually, I think i'm lonely outside and inside. As in spiritually and real-friend wise. Argh... i think i've got the blues!

Anyway.. enough talking about that.
I had a haircut last week! Actually the whole of Mrs Yangs had haircuts last week... And no, we're not on the prowl :P
My pops just came over to visit me... that was nice =) He's on holiday for the week, and Mum was at a course in Merivale, so he came over to hang out for just over an hour.
This house is cold...
Oh well! I think I may go do... something... yeah. Maybe I'll put my references into my essay.

to break up the monotony of my whining

Its getting to that time of year when people are on holiday/busy and there are no new blog posts! Where's the effort, guys?! Its now when you really get to see who are the true bloggers and who are the dudes who just jumped on the band wagon! I thought seeing as it was boring for me to look at everyone's blogs six times a day and see no new posts i'd just write my own post and read it six times a day!!

I have just finished my spanish history essay! Yay! Its due tuesday, so this is the earliest i've finished an essay since.. like forever! I still have to go through and fix up my references, but that should only take about half an hour.
Argh, i'm so bored! both my flatmates are away so its just lil old me at home.
I had a job interview on monday with the flying rooster, a childcare company. They liked me, and we even got to talk about Christianity (just like in the big Kahuna), and i'm hired, but still have to find work. I had an actual interview with some people tonight, re. minding their 7 yr old girl for 3 hours a week, but wont find out for another 2 weeks if i have the job. Aah the joys of not being able to afford the rent and having to find a job! Welcome to the real world, eh!
Its late and I should go to bed... but its so cold! I need a (single) rich man who can afford a heater.... if anyone finds one, send him my way!

If anyone knows a Christian girl looking for a flat, send them my way... I have some friends, yada yada, you know the drill.
Today i had this random sick sorta feeling where everytime i stand up i get really dizzy... its not just from sitting down and then getting up too quickly, its just whenever i walk around. I've been stumbling round like an idiot all day, and when i went to my interview this evening, i thought i was going to pass out in the car, and then at their house. Weirod.
Anyhoo... when i think of more to post, I will do so. Hope everyone enjoys the last 4 days of uni holidays (that is if you are at UC!)

Robo-Michelle

I've been putting this off for ages, but I feel like the time has come to post it.
I think somewhere over the last 3 months Michelle has been dwindling and Robo-girl has been increasing.
I like John 3.30, which says "He must increase, I must decrease" (NKJV) This is something I always want. Lately I think Michelle has decreased, but God in my life hasn't increased. So where has the missing bit gone?
To robo-girl?

This would be an epic if i wrote it all, but the things that have consumed and fed-off the life force in me are
-flat finding between november and january
-this current flat
-not having a church/mentor, etc

I really feel like I am going it alone, and that i've shut out God for a long time now.
I just have this sense of the essence of what is Michelle being sucked out of me... shrivelling up.

I've been struggling with having 'God time' lately... I haven't sat down and prayed for weeks, and I just feel like that part of me is shutting down. I haven't had anyone pray for me for over a month, and in the two months before that, i've only had prayer twice. I just feel so disconnected.

Robo-michelle has become so good at giving all the right answers, and laughing at the right times, and asking the right questions so that nobody knows she has taken over Michelle.
Anyway We are tired right now.... so we shall go to bed.
