It’s late and I want to go to bed – but to summarise:

• Finished Greek intensive weeks – now real College starts – hope I can hack it!
• Part-time work kicks off this week – yikes!
• Feeling sick
• Institute of Actuaries professionalism Course tomorrow and Tuesday, after which I get my official piece of paper to prove my qualifications.
• New macbook – still learning how to drive it – woohoo!
• Sick wife

Hope all is well in the blogosphere

I’ve never really started at a “new” church before. I had been going to Carlo my whole life. I’m not used to being such a new face at church.

This weekend is the mother of all opportunities to make new friends though. We are heading off tonight on the churches annual weekend away.  No doubt it will be a great opportunity to meet some people and make some new friends. I’m excited and scared all at the same time.

Have a cracking weekend.

I passed my Commercial Actuarial Practice exam, the big eight-hour monster. Now I am qualified to become a Fellow of the Institute of Actuaries Australia, which will happen on 23 February after a two-day Professionalism Course.

Yay!

Having got the actuarial qualification out of the way, I have decided to pursue some further study.For the next 2 years I will be working part-time (3 days a week) and studying part-time at Moore Thoelogical College while I complete a Diploma of Bible and Missions.

Work has been very supportive of me doing this, which makes things easier, and I am very excited about getting stuck into God’s Word!

I have already started. I’m one week into the intensive Greek course and I am parsing and declining up a storm!

I’m back, in some capacity, in the blogosphere.

Good to see you again

My big exam is tomorrow, from 9am to 5pm.

Currently thinking about “business contextualisation” and “knowing the answer before you do the analysis”…

Really hoping and praying that this is the last exam!

Also a prize for the most creative wrong answer.

I am on study leave from work at the moment and with all the extra time on my hands, I have managed to:

• Clean and re-organise the kitchen cupboards
• Clean the manky grease out of the rangehood
• Plant basil and tomatoes
• Clean the balcony
• Hang a picture on the wall
• Pay all outstanding bills and complete about 3 months worth of filing and general organising
• Look into mine and Adri’s superannuation and
• Buy two presents for people (Dad and Tim)

Now, I should really do some study. It’s not that I haven’t done any yet, but it’s amazing how much more appealing household chores become when study is the alternative.

Time to hit some past case studies.

Some websites, even some blogs, have mobile phone versions so that the content is a little better suited to your tiny mobile screen. But my experience of mobile sites has been pretty ordinary. The mobile version of smh.com.au is terrible. It looks like it only picks up the most popular stories, which are often pretty ordinary.

Does anyone know of some good websites, news or otherwise, that have good mobile versions?

But who wants to be popular anyway?

I want to be a God-pleaser rather than a people-pleaser.
