Lats night mum and I watched the Jane austen Bookclub. I enjoyed it, and there were some cracker lines, which I wish to share:

• All Jane Austen, all the time. It's the perfect antidote [to life].
• reading Jane asuten is like a fricking mine feild.
• [Pride and Prejudie] is a great parade of bizarre marriages.

And thats' the ones I can remember. There were possibly others, but my brain is at the moment a sponge holding too much. Later!

??

I was just wondering, because i know what I think, if you could live in anytime you could, like seriously anytime for a lifetime, when would it be??

My Labour of Love

Yes, I got the "worlds" mixed up at the end. It was a haste finish (i did about half the video in an 1 and a half, as opposed to...a lot longer for the other half).

Numbers....

Guess what i just worked out while writign my english story! Look at this okay:
THREE minus ONE equals TWO.
Dont see anything? wel there's nothing to see, but if you take the number fo letters there are in one from the word three (i.e. 5-3) you get......TWO letter left! Isn't that cool? Okay,s o it's nto as cool as it could have been but, stil cool!

Recommendation

I highly recommend this blog that was a blgo fo note recently: The Big storm Picture. I really like it because I've always loved pictures of storms and these are brilliant, high-res photos of huge storms.
Just excellent.

And can it be that I should gain
An interest in the Saviour’s blood!
Died he for me who caused his pain!
For me who him to death pursued?
Amazing love! How can it be,
That thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
Amazing love! How can it be,
That thou, my God, shouldst die for me?

’Tis mystery all: th’Immortal dies!
Who can explore his strange design?
In vain the firstborn seraph tries
To sound the depths of love divine.
’Tis mercy all! Let earth adore;
Let angel minds inquire no more.
’Tis mercy all! Let earth adore;
Let angel minds inquire no more.

He left his Father’s throne above
(so free, so infinite his grace!),
Emptied himself of all but love,
And bled for Adam’s helpless race.
’Tis mercy all, immense and free,
For O my God, it found out me!
’Tis mercy all, immense and free,
For O my God, it found out me!

Long my imprisoned spirit lay,
Fast bound in sin and nature’s night;
Thine eye diffused a quickening ray;
I woke, the dungeon flamed with light;
My chains fell off, my heart was free,
I rose, went forth, and followed thee.
My chains fell off, my heart was free,
I rose, went forth, and followed thee.

No condemnation now I dread;
Jesus, and all in him, is mine;
Alive in him, my living Head,
And clothed in righteousness divine,
Bold I approach th’eternal throne,
And claim the crown, through Christ my own.
Bold I approach th’eternal throne,
And claim the crown, through Christ my own.

- Charles Wesley, 1738

Melancholy Musings on "Melancholy"

I have finally decided that I strongly dislike the word melancholy. The realisation came just an hour ago when I heard the word used on the radio and I suddenly realised how ridiculous the word really sounds. I'd been turning a blind ear to it for a while because:
For years well, since I was aware of the word's existence, I never heard it spoken out loud. Not once. So I of course developed my own pronunciation. I never tested this pronunciation verbally, but it sounded great in my head. In fact, I really quite liked the word. Then one day in a year 10 English class our teacher got a kid to read out a section of text, which had the word melancholy in it. I read ahead a bit, anticipating the word being pronounced the way I 'heard' it in my head and instead the boy comes out with, well how it's pronounced. Melon - Kolly. Right? I almost laughed out loud, But everyone else took it in without notice so I didn't. I went home, checked with the mum-who-happens-to-be-an-English-teacher-too and found out that my mental pronunciation (which is actually impossible to say out loud) was totally wrong.
"No way!" I thought. "Melan (long a) - chy. Not that hard. Sounds better. In fact, my way actually sounded melancholy, not like this ridiculous sounding word that had come out of nowhere and was not to be respected because it sounded anything BUT melancholy.
Since then, I've always been very dissapointed int he word melancholy, and when I read by myself, still relish being able to pronounce the word my way. But tonight melancholy crossed the line into that inenviable teritory of STRONGLY DISLIKED WORD.
I suggest you dislike it too.
