what a night

oh what a night.
last night was the mercy ministries ball. and i went with a guy from church - rob.
i dont even know where to start. i had such an amazing night and it still doesnt feel real.
i got treated like a princess. like i was worth millions. and i didnt know how to react.
i had a headache afterwards, which im pretty sure was from smiling all night. rob looked real spunky in his cream suit and funky tie (is that how u spell tie?)
he borrowed his cousins WRX and it sounded totally sweet - and im not even that into cars!
i dont even know wot to write.
i just had a brilliant night and im still pinching myself.
i knew how i deserved to be treated
but last night god showed me.
all in all it was such a wonderful night and rob prolly thinks im an idiot cos i spent half the night stunned. haha.

after the ball i went home and got changed into my pj's and an aussie flag then went to my friend hwins house to watch the socceroos in the cup. wow wot a stressful game. those umps SUCK. but yes the beta, more sportsman-like, betta looking team made it thru to the next round. lets face it, aussies are HOT.
haha

me yesterday

Today i got my hair done! i love it! so im glad i have some BEFORE AND AFTER SHOTS! :p

 

me today!

 

 

a new season

our land lords are selling our house. i was so sad wen i found out. i love my ocean views. in summer they are so so amazing. in winter they are kind of dull. but not always (atm it is really windy and the ocean looks horrible)
and so the house hunting began
only to come to an ugly halt after re-doing my budget and having a cry wen i realised just how much money i DONT have to put towards rent, let alone the bond too.
but, as always, all has worked out. i am moving in with the borretts for a while. and i move out next week. somehow i have gone from 'not wanting to go' to, 'i cant wait to leave'.
but im gonna have to leave behind zac and abby :-( THE LOVES OF MY LIFE!
oh well, they will still have each other and can make out til the day the music dies.

feeling excited

wow. life is so so good.
its amazing how you can hit rock bottom then god brings things along that make you soar higher than you thought was possible, and somehow those troubles seem so far away - yet only if you let him.
i cant believe that in less than a month, i will be with my family, chillin in cairns.
i cant believe in less than a month i will have attended my first hillsong conference - at no expense of my own.
does god never give up?
im beginning to think he really does work 24/7 on finding ways to bless and uplift me.
everything is just so, so great. all i need now is to find $500 to get stuff done to my car and im laughin!...hear that god? lol

im also feeling so blessed to have the opportunity to speak into ppl's lives. tonight i was at club 180 and i was teaching a lesson on 'making a change'. wow - wot an interesting lesson for me to teach! haha. my life has just changed so so much. and it was so great to be able to genuinly share with beautiful young women about how god can bring about a change in u if u just trust, yield and let him take control. its funny, im teaching, yet im learning heaps too!

anyway im just feeling so happy. i can not wait til the mercy ball next week. i was talking to rob after club 180 tonight about what he's gonna wear and just about the ball in general and im just bubbling inside about it.

oh its so good to feel this way, so excited about life and about serving god and helping others. its just such a blessing and im so excited that god is working so hard in and on me
aahhhh

caz - the butt KICKER!

ok, ill admit, that is a somewhat cocky name for a post but tonight i am feeling good
lately i have really struggled at work. i have hated selling, the customers have been doing my head in and dont even get me started on my bosses.
after last saturday i was determined to quit jeans west and pursue something else cos i simply hated it!
however i had decided to give it another month, and if things were still bad in murray st, ask for a transfer and THEN if things were still bad THEN i would quit. i figured this was a much safer root - plus i do enjoy clothes at 40% off, even if i can rarely afford them.

anyway this morning i woke up in a great mood and during my quiet time i asked god to give me a fresh attitude towards work and to give me favour with my boss and with customers and that i cud just have FUN at work again!

and wow - i had an awesome day!
i started at 11 and by 1pm i had already done my target for the whole day!!! i cud not believe it! i hada top gun sale and my sales figures were awesome - in fact the best in the whole store and despite starting later i still did more dollars than anyone else in the whole store!
and it was nothing to do with me. it was all god. there is no way i cud have felt as happy as i did without god and i even enjoyed my own company. hahaha. i hardly spoke to anyone else working, i kept to myself, got the job done and had fun doing it.

anyway. im just happy. god is such a miracle worker and he can do even the small, seemingly unimportant things!
