reflections

I'm not particularly inspired tonight. Actually I havent been for the last few months. Maybe its HSC overload or something like that. I really wanted to write some decent entry too, just for my avid blog readers...

I am msn msging my ex-boyfriend, and seeing that i haven't talked to him for months, that is rather odd. He initiated the conversation so i guessed that i should talk back. There's still some hurt there i think, from way back. Nothing too deep. We weren't that close in the first place, communication wasn't really our thing.

Which is different from our relationship, Chris and I. Well sort of. As you know, before we became official, we would chat for hours (in person) about anything at anytime. We don't do that much anymore...which is bad because we should. And of course we will, now that the HSC is over we'll be able to concentrate on that.

I sent my associate pastor a message about the Zambia thing (see earlier posts) but he hasn't replied yet. Two weeks and counting... is it because i haven't been at church?

Free!

I am sitting here in disbelief thinking about the fact i have actually finished school.

wow.

Now...what to do with the rest of my life.

I think i really need to empty out the unit. I have all these study materials that just need to be thrown away.

wow.

I've really finished.

A lot of you have been pressuring me to make another post. So here it is:

Lets start of with what has happened since my last post.

I got my Queens Award
I got a flat
Ive started playing squash every week

Oh i just read this:

AFRICA : Teenage Mothers School Project - Zambia
It has been observed that most girls are failing to continue with their education as a result of teenage pregnancy. Although the Ministry of Education has come up with a policy of allowing teenage mothers to go back to school after delivery, very few are doing so.
Research has shown that girls are failing to go back because they are not sensitized on the policy and their fundamental educational rights. They also find it difficult to leave their babies and stay in school for eight hours. Other girls in school also ridicule them thus feelings of being out of place. It is also noted that the men responsible for their pregnancy often abandon them without any form of support.
The Girls' Brigade of Zambia seeks to bring teenage mothers back to school and promote the importance and rights of education for girls and also provide good baby care to affected teenage mothers.

That sounds like something i want to be a part of, but Zambia...? Odd place, i don't know if id want to move that far...especially with Mikey. Though it does sound intriguing.
