Ali tagged me in this meme. I have to write 10 things that make me happy. Lots of things make me happy. I couldn't limit it to 10. Here are 15. Ask me tomorrow and I'll list another 15.
1. Jesus. The forgiveness of sins. Life everlasting.
2. The 'newspaper' Nathan is making at the moment. It's called the 'Daily Fear' and is delightfully satirical.
3. A high school musical duet.
4. Thinking about the new creation where I'll be able to hang out with friends for a really long time.
5. Micah eating his dinner.
6. Joel's clay sculptures.
7. Anything expressed in venn diagram form.
8. My choir. Today they learnt a harmony part for 'Song for the Mira' and sang it nicely.
9. Getting a song demo in my email inbox.
10. The chest track in Body Pump - if I can load up the bar significantly and not fatigue out before the end.
11. A good Sophie Hannah style poem.
12. 3 hours in a coffee shop.
13. Making Andrew watch 'Twilight' movies with me.
14. A new idea.
15. Someone else doing my paperwork.

Meme: Five things in my wardrobe that I wouldn't be without.
The only thing sillier than taking cooking advice from me would be coming to me for fashion advice. I hate clothes shopping and I look sloppy most of the time. But I'd like to start a meme. And I'm in the mood for shallow. So girls...
____________________________________________
Five things in my wardrobe that I wouldn't be without.
1. Red dresses
2. Brown skirts
3. A zip up hoody that I can stuff in my bag in preparation for the cooler climate of the coffee shop.
4. Black gym clothes (Get any other colour and you'll regret it. Try explaining to the shoe salesman that you really like the running shoes he wants to sell you, but you can't buy them because they are orange and your gym clothes are pink.)
5. 7/8ths length jeans
___________________________________________
Rules.
Title your post- Meme: Five things in my wardrobe that I wouldn't be without.
Tell us who linked you.
List your 5 wardrobe items.
Paste these rules at the bottom.
Tag 2 or 3 others to join in the fun!

My desk
Ali tagged me in this desk photo thing. You have to take a picture of your workspace and post it.
Mine, as you can see, is a total mess.
A few things to notice:
1. Shoes under the desk.
Now I tag Nathan and Al.** Don't worry if I didn't pick you! Wait patiently and you will get a go.
[** Come on guys, you can do this!]

random facts meme
I was tagged by Ali to do this meme. Here are the rules:
1. Link to the person who ‘tagged’ you!
2. Post the rules on your blog!
3. List 6 random facts about yourself!
4. Tag 6 people at the end of your post!
5. Let each person know they have been tagged by commenting on their blog!
6. Let the tagger know the entry is posted on your blog!
6 random facts about me:
1. I got married when I was 20. Looking back, I was far too young. But I chose well, so what does it matter?
2. I trained as a high school teacher (music and english). I now work as a supply teacher two days a week - mostly in primary schools. I think I could be a good primary school teacher if I knew anything about what primary kids should learn. At the moment I know very little, but get by on the fact that I can tell a story.
3. I had my first romantic encounter when I was in year 7. A boy, Matthew, gave me flowers at the end of year formal. I was so embarrassed (my parents were there!) and didn't know what to do so I pushed them back at him. This was really quite unkind of me. I had been flirting with him for months and he felt pretty bad. I did too. I didn't get a chance to say sorry, because we all went off to high school after that and I never really spoke to him again. Oh well.
4. I like to do the extrovert thing and chat to lots of people, but there's nothing that I'd rather do than hang out with close friends.
5. Sometimes I think blogging is about as satisfying as having half a conversation.
6. I have three kids. I feel guilty that we don't have four. After #3 I was reluctant to get pregnant again because I lose my creative spark when I'm pregnant and breast feeding. I think this is a pretty poor reason for not having another child.
Six people. Hmmm.
Lucy, Ruth, Prue, Rebecca, and you, faithful reader, in my comments section if you don't have a blog.

Teachers Meme
Nicole tagged me for this teachers meme (which Michael started). I need to name my five favourite teachers and say what made them great.
Ms Theideke read Wordsworth's 'Daffodils' to us. I sat up and listened. She read the 'Lucy Poems' and I lost my heart.
Mrs Ghetzel taught me maths from year 10-12. She showed me the beauty of a quadratic equation and taught me that it's okay to be passionate about anything. I haven't seen her for 15 years and can't imagine that she's still alive. She lived on cigarettes and coffee.
Mr Cummings was my instrumental music (trumpet) teacher from year 6 to 12. He was ex-army and a great concert band conductor. Under his leadership, our lowly state school band could beat the GPS schools in competitions. But more than that, he would patiently listen to my prattle hour after hour, week after week, year after year...
To this day I'd acknowledge Keith Birchley as my most influential teacher. I met him in my first week of uni - a young christian from a non-Xn family, hungry for the word - and he patiently, passionately and skillfully taught me the bible. He also showed me how God works in weakness and that the desperate state of my heart is no obstacle for God.
Hmm. Last one. Mark Baddeley almost got a look in - he was a fantastic doctrine teacher even at uni. But I guess I have to put down my Mum. Mum's a legend. Taught me most things: to live, to walk, to speak (no small task, I've got some bad genes), to write, to construct an argument...
So thanks to all of you.
That was fun. I tag: ben, craig, jo and you if you like!
