Caleb's Blog Journal

The day before the tests we went charity-shop-searching for whatever we could fine - which wasn't much really - but enjoyed all the neat buildings but was gutted because even though I brought my camera I unintentionally left it at the hotel =/ saying that it was still fairly fun.

Jacob and I took the five ACT test exams this morning. We all got up around 6 a.m. - got showers eat a little bit of breakfast food - for those of us who hadn't had enough we went to McDonalds. We were the first people to get there (around 7:35 a.m.) got in about 7:20 a.m. (we got there before the tests examiner and even the security guard).

Jacob didn't think the tests where too difficult but I would say about 30% of each of my tests where guesses because I ran out of time on all of them. It was a lot harder (to me) that all the practice tests I had taken. So...after around 5-8 weeks we'll see how we did. If Jacob does better than me, I won't be surprised. We finished the tests about half noon.

Got picked up, then drove back home.

On the way back we went to and saw Stonehaven - nice harbor took a couple of pictures - then we drove to Dunnottar Castle (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunnottar_Castle ) which was only about 2-3 miles away. Took a lot of nice pictures there - the weather was great for it. I wish the pictures showed the beauty of the place better.

I am going to try to make my Blogger set-up/layout different starting from now between next week - haven't been on enough to re-learn how to do that again.

Currently, I am trying to become a Crew Trainer at McDonalds - pray that I will get accepted if that is God's Will - I will be 11 out 7 possible Crew Trainer jobs. Also I will be taking a test (for the purpose of making my résumé [curriculum vitae (CV)] look better) I will be taking the 23rd if everything works out.

I hope everyone is doing well bfn

Thursday,



Just finished dinner and I am watching Facing the Giants, after coming back from playing football outdoors. We played football outdoors for about 20 minutes and then found out that we weren't suppose to be out side playing til next week, so we went back to playing indoors.

I visited Janet today. I didn't find a good opportunity to witness to her this time because I was doing gardening. I find the best time to witness to her is when I just go over visit when a gardening chore isn't needed to be done. But, I was blessed to read yesterday, in my personal Bible studying, in 1 Corinthians chapter 15 [verses 20-28, 42-50; 51-57]. I believe the Lord has given me this chapter especially for her, to show her that Life after death is a reality, and that she needs to accept Christ.

A couple of days ago I had a good, bright walk to the Library, then to the High-street, then to David books shop, and then back home.

I have been watching math lessons on youtube by Salman Kahn (not the actor) you can see what he does on the following site: http://www.khanacademy.org/

he has helped me grasped some of the problems in math I would have otherwise failed to understand.




Prayer Requests:

Janet that she would get saved

Shannon, a friend of mine, has back problems and is having really bad pain from it - pray that even in her pain the Lord would teach her something she would otherwise miss or not see from this experience, and that the pain wouldn't hinder her school studies.

Grandmother, will have to have re-constructional surgery due to her breast cancer - pray for her recovery and that the Lord would keep her from anxiety.


I think that's it for now, hope to hear from you guys...bfn
