This is hilarious - I've never been Methodist in my life! I've been Anglican, Baptist, Free Church, Brethren a bit of everything but except for my parent's village church which is Methodist for one service a month I've not really been Methodist! I did play in an orchestra which met in a Wesleyan Church. I don't know what it means by Holiness - I've never been to a Holiness Church maybe it's an American thing! I quite like the Emergent thing though I think it's pretty good. I seem to have a high score on quite a few things - I guess I'm messed up theologically!

You scored as Evangelical Holiness/Wesleyan. You are an evangelical in the Wesleyan tradition. You believe that God's grace enables you to choose to believe in him, even though you yourself are totally depraved. The gift of the Holy Spirit gives you assurance of your salvation, and he also enables you to live the life of obedience to which God has called us. You are influenced heavly by John Wesley and the Methodists.

And in other news, yeah I got the flat - the nice man accepted my offer so now I'm talking to and filling in forms with mortgages and solicitors and estate agents and trying not get too confused but they all seem very helpful and able to explain things so I can understand so far....
I know that buying a house is supposed to be one of the most stressful things you'll ever do - these people clearly never lived on Doulos! Even so I'm trying to take it slow and not get frustrated or stressed about it even though I'm keen to move out of where I am as it's difficult to entertain! I do manage with people sitting on the floor and food on the coffee table and stuff but it will be nice to have more space! Anyway I must stop chatting and get back to work with my little aeroplanes flying around the screen - I'm modelling them it's not play it's work!
Here is my aeroplane

yes it needs to be that small for what I'm doing!

I was planning to paint the 2nd bedroom yellow and hey even the internet agrees with me!

You Should Paint Your Room Yellow

Bright and bold, yellow is truly the color of inspiration. Your yellow room will drive you to think clearly, develop new ideas, and be organized. Yellow is also energizing and very powerful. So don't expect to rest in there!

You Are Incredibly Logical

Move over Spock - you're the new master of logic You think rationally, clearly, and quickly. A seasoned problem solver, your mind is like a computer!

How Logical Are You?

I have a very exciting weekend planned - taking my Mum and Dad to see the MOSCOW STATE CIRCUS! In Cardiff for my Mum's birthday - I can't wait! I saw a few of them doing a mini display about 15 years ago and it was absolutely stunning so I know it's going to be amazing! Also hoping to show them round a flat I like that I'm thinking of buying - the estate agent says it's in Cyn Coed (the poshest part of Cardiff) which I think is stretching the truth by several miles but nevertheless it's an OK area and the flat has a great view and a little balcony! You must all come and visit if I get it - I might have a party.

I've had lots of fun with snow in the past week, it was so beautiful! It was also really cold but I survived. The room I live in is quite warm although my housemates keep leaving the bathroom window wide open even though it's snowing and then leave the bathroom door open and then wonder why it's cold!

This week my favourite invention is the phone and also internet sites which let you call long numbers and then get cheap rates to call - this week I have spoken to friends in the Phillipines, South Africa and Benin - very exciting!

I have an orchestra concert tomorrow (Cardiff Symphony - see link) and there are still some parts I can't quite play though I've improved a lot so I need to practise those last few 'corners' tonight ready for the big night tomorrow!

I've had fun making new friends and meeting up with old friends - sometimes it's like the last years never happened and we get along just like before! I'm really enjoying my life at the moment - on Monday night I was glad that I still had 4 days of work left this week - I must be in such a small minority! Doing research about remote controlled planes but on a BIG scale! Very exciting!

Went to a great Wedding on Saturday, the Bride and Groom are so lovely and such a sweet couple! We had a couple of German girls staying with us and we got on really well so it was a really good weekend. I even got to the play the violin in the service which was so much fun!

Came back Sunday afternoon in time for Highfields which was great - I'm really getting to know people now. One of the girls is moving house next Saturday so I'll be able to take a car load for her which should be fun!

Had a great weekend in Manchester catching up with Anna Buckley and Henna Wilson, they are both doing great! Anna is well on her way to becoming the world's best English/French Primary teacher and Henna achieved 349% of her targets at work but even so has exciting plans for the future which will mean a big change!

I had a nice time on Tuesday - at a Catherdral service - not usually my thing but I was invited and I thought - why not! It was a celebration of 10 years of women priests in Wales so it was full of women vicars - vicar of Dibley and all that! At the end of the service all the women vicars in their dog collars were 'processing' down the aisle to the last song of 'We are marching in the light of God' and they were literally dancing! We were all clapping along to the music and then when they'd finished they decided to go around again getting the men vicars and even the Bishops to join in the dancing - it was so unlike you imagine a cathedral service to be and it was so much fun! The preacher also said about how they'd come a long way as women but they still had a mountain to climb - a purple headed mountain! (Purple being the colour the bishops wear!) Well if it's right for women to be vicars then why not bishops - the Bible doesn't make a distinction - they didn't even have bishops in those days!

OK brief recap of my life in case you missed it! I spent 2 years on board the ship Doulos travelled around the Mediteranean, Africa, Middle East and Asia. Now I moved to Cardiff, Wales, UK and have a new job. I'm living in St Micheal's College and go to Highfields church and Cardiff Symphony Orchestra - check out the links.
