Topic: Lent
Well, I can't come into the OU tomorrow ... so there goes my Aseem research for the weekend ... never mind ... its not like it is going up drastically ... couldn't find anything new on the internet about him for the past couple of days ... must have exhausted all the information ... but mind you, I've mostly been using Google for this purpose.

Did find a website (a Canadian one) ... with ratings for movies, and yesterday it was positioned at no. 10, today it is off the charts completely ... never to appear again ... I imagine! I thought it was doing ok ...it had a higher score (6.7593) rating than some of the other movies in the list ... but oh well ...today it is gone!

Anyway, made a list of groceries this morning using the Sainsbury website. I had to create an account though, and give my zip code ... but from there was able to browse all the goods and the prices. Based on my list my groceries should come up to #18.85 ... hopefully ... but it looks like I want to buy an awful lot, so wonder if I can walk with all that or should I take the bus ... knowing how cheap I am ... I think most likely I would make a trip on Saturday and a trip on Sunday to get all the stuff. I need to get fish, shrimp and vegetables (for lent) - so that is the reason for going to Sainsbury - otherwise I would have stick to the co-op.

Well, Amalia and Ritch are doing Romans for Lent ... I wanted to know what they were doing before I started keep service ... but they didn't reply me in time, so I started Philippians instead ... and I think from there on I will work through the successive letters of Paul. Paul does irritate me though - especially on his views of females - that irritates the heck out of me - and he is so strait-jacketed ...wonder why God even chose him at times ... probably, only someone who is such a stickler for rules and conformation could possibly get the job done ... couldn't really see Peter doing that ... he seems a bit flighty at times. I should have done St. John - do love his book much more - but I think we have tired him out ... I could have done Revelations!!! Yeah ... but won't have a clue what I was reading .. but it is so cool to conjecture what he was thinking. (Wonder if anything I said here so far is blasphemy ... then again God forgives the ignorant??? ... hopefully!!!).

Wrote Pa today and told him I'm coming home for Easter - haven't sorted it out with my supervisors as yet (they don't even know that I want to) - but who cares ... Easter here by myself does not seem like much fun! Plus, I've been here long enough ... I deserve a break (could you imagine the length I'm talking about is 1 month :D ... yup came back on Jan 10th!). Oh well ... wonder what will happen when there is that long period and between Easter and Pa's bday (yup I want to go home then too ... I'm gonna be so poor when I am finished!).
