FAMILY

I love family. Relatives from Pittsburgh (US) and Waterford(Ireland) are in town which means so much fun and a familiarity that only comes with family. It also means many many good meals at places I couldn't afford, wine, Magners and Stella, hugs and kisses that I've missed. Unfortunately, it also means me being distracted from work again.

"Je t'aime, bonne nuit bébé."
"Je t'aime aussi, mon petit fille!"

Apologies

I have been very busy lately hence the lack of updates. Also, Norton has screwed up my Hello! program, which means I can't upload photos anytime soon. But I'll do that when I'm free and when I solve the problem. Meanwhile, take care everyone.

The Prayer

I pray you’ll be our eyes
And watch us where we go
And help us to be wise
In times when we don’t know
Let this be our prayer
As we go our way
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
To a place where we’ll be safe

La luce che to dai
I pray we’ll find your light
Nel cuore restero
And hold it in our hearts
A ricordarchi che
When stars go out each night
L’eterna stella sei
Nella mia preghiera
Let this be our prayer
Quanta fede c’e
When shadows fill our day

Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we’ll be safe.
Sognamo un mondo senza piu violenza
Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace e di fraternita
La forza che ci dai

We ask that life be kind
E’il desiderio che
And watch us from above
Ognuno trovi amore
We hope each soul will find
Intorno e dentro a se
Another soul to love

Let this be our prayer
Let this be our prayer
Just like every child
Just like every child
Needs to find a place,
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we’ll be safe
E la fede che
Hai acceso in noi
Sento che ci salvera

The death penalty...

was both given out to Saddam Hussein and Took. Two very different acts, in two very different countries, yet both will die the same way. Does the death penalty do justice?

An random update just to procrastinate from what's waiting

So Sen. John Kerry told group of college students they could either work hard in school or "get stuck in Iraq." How diplomatic huh? Or perphaps that is the wrath dear old Kerry has for the Republicans and especially Bush's "broken policy"? Whatever the case, it made me laugh.

I will be in Huddersfield from tomorrow to Sunday evening. And in one night, I have to pack for the retreat, finalise my moot argument (while my moot parter who i have never seen is in London), come up with a skeleton argument, do my long overdue laundry, cook Nick and Clare dinner (since Nick decided to pop by today of all days), finish an essay which is due tomorrow, stick up posters for a Christian Group I am setting up in my apartments, book flights for Rome and call Lorraine to see if finalise plans for the service on Sunday. We are planning a student service this Sunday all by ourselves so come if your free to show your support! 630pm at St. Peters House!!

I get myself into such things, so I won't complain. In fact, I love my crazy life. I can't imagine living otherwise. Have a good weekend everyone!

I hate gossip. Its like we are in school all over again, 14, and tearing each other's hair out.
