| Situation, Situation
ran a leg of the belfast marathon yesterday as part of a realy team. there were five of us all doing about 5 or 6 miles. it was great fun and a great day. all assignments are now finished and only exams to come which i like, and once those are done i have the whole summer off before heading stateside. graeme dott won the wolrd snooker chamionship yesterday. the winner of the marathon was, yes you guessed it, a kenyan- he kicked everyone elses ass by about 30 minutes. it was great to run around the city i have to admit and that is about it for now, hope all are well and prospering. | | |

| THE last couple of weeks have passed with haste combined with partcular levels of enjoyment. march 10th saw my birthday and the joyous occasion that brought. the family minus johnny, add his girlfriend headed to tony romas for probably my best meal of the year to date www.tonyromasbelfast.com followed by some good company over coffee at starbucks with the mcclintock boys joining in the fun. peter edgar followed shortly to supply some laughs, as did damien rice and co (charlie and gareth). i was gracious for 2 great gifts, a lovely toight irish rugby top and rugby 2006 for the playstation. johnny and rebecca added a nice hmv voucher and charlie chipped in with some much needed cash!
Assessment at uni added some stress the following week, but all passed with little concern. after watchin one episode of 24 with sj, i caught the bug and the remainder of the week was filled following the adventures of jack bauer and the entire team at ctu as they went about foiling several terrorust plots. a few long nights of that finished 2 entire seasons, the most addictive show to date from my experience.
Rugby and university of course were intertwined in all these happenings but were merely sub plots. great news was recieved last weekend when adam revealed he had given his life back to the lord. the joy and happiness was evident amongst the crowd at elkana where the movement of the spirit is truly visible.
Finally, last week i went for my matching interview for the business education initiative and my reasearch and enthusiasm paid off, the interviewer quite obviously loved my preparation and informed me i would either be heading for tulsa or chicago next year with final confirmation next week. i am so excited about going away and am so thankful that i have been given the oppurtunity, GOD IS GOOD! | | |
