Seen a shooting star tonight, and I thought of you...
(Posted to frances_hardy.livejournal.com)
That song (Shooting Star) has been in my head for the last few days, mostly because I've actually seen quite a few over the last few nights ;) On Friday night a group of 10 or so from college went out to have a 'bonfire', and there were real stars! Not the faint dots you see in the sky when you're in the ( Read more... ) -

I found something today I hadn't seen for several weeks: free time.
That's right, I actually had the time to not study and to do all the other things I've been putting off for the last few weeks. I talked to Mum for a good hour and a half (probably longer), and then Emma (a friend in Narrabri) for a further half hour. I folded my clean clothes and ( Read more... ) -
Quote of the Day
From a response written to Blaise Pascal about his Provincial Letters:
"Your two letters have not been confined to me. Everybody has seen them, everybody understands them, and everybody believes them. They are not only in high repute among theologians-they have proved agreeable to men of the world, and intelligible even to the ladies."

In some ways, I feel like this song ('Don't Let Go' by Kate Miller-Heidke) sums up my life at the moment:

But the day I sent you that sad mail, not ( Read more... ) -

I woke up this morning feeling ever so flat; you know how it goes, "how could God love me... I'm pretty darn stupid..."
My Bible was open on the table as I walked past, and I had a bit of a glance...
"Fear not, for I have redeemed you;
I have called you by name, you are mine.
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
and throught the rivers ( Read more... ) -
"I was just speaking to Maurice here about booooks and such..."
My housemates and I just re-watched 'Finding Forrester' over chai and birthday cake. Fun times... I had forgotten just what a great movie that is! I must have seen it five or six times now, and it is still enjoyable every time ( Read more... ) -
"I won't be far from where you are if ever you should call..."
I clearly don't blog very often, but I was talking to some of the girls here earlier about how good blogging/keeping a journal is to process one's own thoughts, so I thought... "what they hey... "
One advantage to living in college is that heaps of people share their itunes libraries over the network, and you get unlimited listening variety. It's ( Read more... ) -
why learning only a little bit about a biblical language is more dangerous than not learning any
l was looking at the Answers in Genesis website to get a bit of a grip on their viewpoint of their six day creation theory and came across this explanation for how they know that Cain's wife was his sister.
A closer look at the Hebrew word for “wife” in Genesis reveals something readers may miss in translation. It was more obvious to those speaking ( Read more... )
