Sitting at the gate

The one place i'm guaranteed to get gprs signal is up by the gate.
Although my gmail app does complain about a connection when retrieving
contacts. And i think i should let my wheels down 0.5... Ok, well
thinking of something to write is boring compared to keeping watch at
the gate! Kay, byE.

Caught green-handed

I had my friend come over for some chill time, even tho I was watering
the grass next to the driveway. I then decided to feed my lungs. Out
came the hookah and choc-mint tobacco. I have better flavours, but I
guessed I should use old stock. It was a good month or two since I
last used the HB...Used lots of ice, cold water and packed the
tobacco in a ring. I think I'm getting better at it the more I do it.
Anyway, by the time we were about done, my parents came home. btw, we
were smoking outside the front door. I saw the lights and ran to the
gate to prevent the hose getting squashed. I didnt hear a thing about
it..even when my Mom opened the packet containing boxes of tobacco. I
still wonder if they think I'm a druggi... I also learned that packing
away hoses at night causes blindness.. Also, if something doesnt work
in PHP, check the variables. And some ppl lie like pilchards - I'm not
aware of any swearing policy.. If I'm not mistaken, I have a pretty
good log viewer..

Yippee!!?!!

So I have finished UNISA exams...

I can now find a Bible script to run on an eggdrop (1.6.18) - and having lots of fun with a shell!

Since I last wrote on here, I've committed to doing the Ignite Internship Programme for 2008 and am currently doing a 90 day course.

Exams are MORE important than what the web can offer

Yes. In a few short moments, I shall change my status on facebook and pack my computer back into the cupboard. I cant fail these exams. I'm already close on just, just, passing my first one.

Maybe I'll paint in my breaks?!?
Perhaps I'll be a star on 3 November 2007 @ The Shed (Eastside Community Church)...

Goodbye till my last exam.

Time to heal....

I have chosen to heal. The following is something from what i got from
my father.
Idolise. K. Authority. K. Faithfulness. K.
Nurture/materialistic. K. Physical affection. NK. Time spent together. k. Unconditional acceptance. K. Psalm 139. Heartfelt communication. k.
Patience. K. Encouragement. k. Godly example.k.Double standards. K.
Biblical instruction. K. Discipline. k. Build trust relationship. K.
i want to heal. I think i have been keeping myself back by not
having much self control. And then the God thing... I'll admit, i'm a
little far from God. Though i have been listening to the book of
Samuel.

I'm thankful that my church is family oriented. And finally,
thank you to Impact Radio for their program at 10p till 12.

I'm moving

well, yes.

I think I have moved..but now its to see if I can use frames

I think its wise to move back to google

Its rather sad, but i have discovered that the blog software takes up 99% of my web space. And its quite slow to load, so I’m starting to think that the blogspot has its uses. And I’m having trouble with the admin panel of my site being down when I need it most.. Plus I’m most disgusted at the things that I wont mention…

I’m gonna surf to blogspot and when my battery goes or i fall asleep, that’ll be the end of it.

it took a long time to figure out what i should delete via ftp before i could use cpanel again. An hour later and 50KB below my quota, i still couldnt do anything… Just proves that this world doesnt function well on no money..

I hope it can move…

Random falling photo…..

My room is becoming weird. A photograph just landed as if it fell from the ceiling, but it didnt. It couldnt have been on my shelves, so its rather randomly weird. Its a group photo of all the artists, including me, who made glass windows for the then Hatfield Methodist Church. Brings back wonderful memories of walking to art after school. But i’m tired and wanna sleep - I’v finished my snack. GRiN

Midnight snack (I’m NOT lazy)

The thought of small crunchy pillows of biscuit colour filled with hazelnut chocolate, crunching and tasting so divine in my mouth and not in a plastic box in the kitchen, made me literally crawl to the kitchen to retrieve the square delights! Unfortunately, this snack does not rate high compared to canned pilchards. Happy day, my teeth are working.. SMiLE

I am my own worst enemy…

Sigh.. All I wanted to do was to mirror a site, but that took time as I first had to get my box to connect to the net. Then I checked mail… I got mail from SUIS. And I thought, “ag, to put a picture and some text onto a page wont take 10 minutes…” HaHa!?! It took 5 seconds for me to decide that the image and text were not centered and therefore made the page look spastic.. Two tables later and it was done. And just thinking, I could have made it offline and then uploaded the final file. And when that was done, I went to sit on my bed and write this using my phone. I should have enabled HTML tags, so that I could at least have some format to my posts… I know I should start my day with prayer, or at least greet God in the morning. I just Havent been doing that. this.Intelli-text(’is nightmare’); notice the odd words with or without capitals.. I’m still sitting on my bed. Getting hungry. But I wont do anything as I am my own worst enemy. I’m lazy. I wont eat unless it keeps me awake or it makes me think of eating, but I’m too tired to munch. No. I want some Squirrels. Yummy snack food from Spar. If its not called that, then Spar is welcome to give me free boxes of the cerial for a year. Yes. This is turning into randomness, so therefore I must be falling asleep with my eyes open and still sitting on my pillow on the edge of my bed. My back hurts. Shame. SMiLE

Time.....

It is amazing what time can do to a person. Last night, I didnt see a clock while I installed ubuntu. Nor did I notice, once it was running, that the clock is moved to the top of the screen. I have no idea why I installed ubuntu..as I already use SUSE!? When I got bored of ubuntu (poweruser unfriendly), I booted into SUSE and got a huge shock. It was after 1 in the morning. I shutdown and retired to bed. I even tried to blog, but I managed to push the red key on my phone..closing the application and gritting my teeth?! In the morning, I decided to do some gardening. It took me the whole day to prepare an area to receive some ferns. And before it got too dark, I vacuumed the pool. Blah Blah. I tried watching a movie, but got up when I disagreed with the content. I jammed on the keyboard, played with my MBR, booted into 3 OS’s and jammed some more cuz I got bored of a silly computer. Cant wait to open my eyes again.. SMiLE

Surprise

Hmmm I was thinking.. I downloaded music and that was only about 300MB. I’ve been on facebook and image sites.. So that must have used up a chunk of cap? It is still raining. The power went off and I had to figure out HOW to lock the garage after I pulled the manual-override wire.
I was hungry, so I opened the cupboard and found some yummy stuff called something like Squirel.. On the way home, I bought some! I’m starting to get cold.. And i wanna sleep… WaVe

I was, I’m gonna be ‘hardcore’…

The Lord is to be feared, even when you do something evil, He still forgives you, again.
I really messed up. And then I really messed up some more. Something told me I should turn back, but I didn’t. Instead, I pressed on and went on for gold. I had one more decision to make. Do I do it, or do I just not do it?
As tough as it was, I made a Godly decision. I boldly said no to temptation, and the temptation left.

Praise to God for the Holy Spirit. Without the Helper that God sent, I would not be blogging. I would have been out clubbing at the dodgiest of establishments and doing unheard of things.
Yes, I’m outgoing, but I have fear that is holding me back. If it is not fear, then it is something that is not from God. In grade one, I would just do things. Then a close friend of mine said something, something that would shape the rest of my life.

I was rejected by my best friend. Even though I changed schools, I didn’t want to experience that same feeling of rejection. I kept to myself, especially round boys. Girls, on the other hand, were my best friends. They always understood me. They hardly if ever judged me..except for those tom-boys.
My support was from girls, though I didn’t see it that way. I didn’t get along with boys too easily.

I went to an all-boys high school. What happened? I grew a shell and isolated myself from potentially great friendships. In high school, I started to dwell in evil and by the end of matric, I was already in knee-deep. Praise God. I stayed in knee-deep until I made the effort to seek God within all this mess.

It has been almost 9 months since I last took part in something evil. Tonight, if it were not for the Holy Spirit, I would have taken part in a ‘clean’ evil!
Praise God! I heard and listened to the Holy Spirit.

I will now retire to bed.

I think I’m back..

yes, I think I’m back

Last week and the previous weeks, I was struggling with evil.
1 Thessalonians 5 taught me to not even think of the tiniest of evils. I’m still getting bothered by the odd evil thought.

I have decided that I’ll reduce the amount of time I spend on the internet and only use it for my studies and pleasure. By pleasure, I mean this blog and perhaps an odd visit to faceBook, if it still exists.

I’ve got a slogan to share that I got from SUIS, but I’ve put it on my favourite cap - I love fabric liners -

Live on the God side of life

And that’s what I’m gonna do…………

Good FROZEN morning

No! Winter has not hit - it's only Autumn.... I hope?!?

I've been house-sitting this past weekend. One heck of a frozen affair
and I HAD to get out of bed in the mornings. Saturday was art at nine,
Sunday was church at eight, Today was gardeners at seven.

Yes! I didn't want to get out of bed, but I had to. If I did not, I
would not have had a brilliant weekend by now.

hmmMmm.. I'm trying to get out of the habit of using foul language and
phrases - and I can thank an old friend for that, as he said foul things
every five minutes.

ok, Well it has warmed up a bit - time to have fun in the sun! My eyes
are irritated, so I'll be blind when I put on my shades!!?!

I like these paragraphs.

Why do we learn the K56 method?

I drove to UNISA on Monday and as I did, I saw MANY cars NOT signalling before they did anything. I walked during my break to the place where my Mom works and I almost became road-kill as the guy did NOT signal that s/he was turning into the driveway...
 
And then, returning from UNISA, I hooted at this fool who moved into my lane without indicating and as I was speeding up at that moment, I had to slam on brakes and shift down..the guy behind me also got peeved...
 
I am now grateful to Pat Allen for teaching me the K53 (..er K56 perhaps?) method.
 
I also know why people drive so badly. They don't care anymore, and the law protects them if you don't have a witness to prove to the courts that it was their fault!
Oops, I didnt indicate...oh well, who cares?
 
Sure I drive like a maniac, but I am trying to keep it to safe madness - ie, if there are no other cars and it looks & feels safe, I'll do it. If a passenger suggests it, I'll ignore it - I once listened to a mad young passenger and I'm now infamous for a silly thing I did.
 
So, why do I like the way I had to learn to drive? Well, the way I learnt taught me how to drive defensively and if you drive in the places I drive, you'll realise that I'm safer and not saner.
 
I have a sollution. Drive as if ALL the other cars were those happy taxis!!
Be calm on the road. Dont get mad or show ANY emotion when something happens to you.
Getting mad doesnt help, I learnt that - it just boils your blood hotter than HOT.
 
Drive with a smile and concentrate on the road in case you can avoid an accident!
 
Now, If you see a souped up blue fox 1.8 with a crazy guy smiling and grinning and talking to an invisible passenger, well, that's me! And I talk to God, in case you were wondering..!
 
Malcs
ps. An English lecturer has given new meaning to what I think I should do...
I'm gonna be puting my poems back online!
I have know idea when it shall be, but I no that it may be sooner than I think @ malcsman.za.net - if the server is back online?!?

Re-define the human need

Did you know that I am eating a tablet?!? Yes, it's a chocolate pill - but it is a lil far tooooo sweet to be considered chocolate. ie..90% sugar and 10% kokao, but it doesnt affect my spelling which is shocking!!
 
I am not anorexic. If I were anorexic I would not be thinking of wanting more muscles..I would be thinking that I was fat!
I have a problem. I dont do much when I'm hungry... ie.. I dont go looking for food.
 
The human body in my view, gets rather depressed without food and eventually when you're being negative, you go look for food cuz you'd rather look for food than die of starvation.
 
Yes, I admit it - if you dont make me eat, I will not eat.. Unless I recall the way I last felt when I had no food in me and I go eat in retaliation.
 
[[oh, and dont dehydrate..or u will also loose interest in your surroundings!!]]
 
Lets say you need 90 chomps everyday for food...
Breakfast is normally 50 chomps, Lunch 25 and Supper 15. This is what it should be, but for the last months I have done something like this:
B10 L15 S20 :>
B03 L10 S20 :P
B00 L05 S20 :)
B00 L22 S13 :[
B15 L05 S00 :/
B00 L01 S00 :x
B30 L45 S15 :]
etc. etc. etc.
 
So WHAT am I getting at???
Well, in the above, I lost food and it affected my mood --- and I have just proooved that with a TV on behind me, I loose concentration..
 
damn TV
 
Am I LOST? Yup!
And my title?
Pray to God about it!!

Fixing an OLD pc.....

well, I just learnt some more about a pc
 
HP desktops.. they have a kewl jumper thingie
 
I almost laughed at my friend - i saw that he had NO harddrive and he wondered why his pc dont work...untill i found them hiding under the PSU!
 
Win98 on a pentium 200MHz is lekker FAST...
 
ok, i'm sick of writing - while fixing the pc i forgot about the pump, and almost burnt it out - the water in the tank was all gone...

An amazing weekend

God is so in the sense of WOW! And if you didnt get that,
God is so like WOW!
 
The shed was only going to get telkom in months, but God stepped in!
The shed didnt have 3-phase power to the stage, but God stepped in!
The shed sounded like a huge hall, but God stepped in!
 
God has shown Himself in many ways at the opening of Chapter Two @ Eastside Community Church (ECC).
 
Not a single person was a target for 'road kill' as ECC moved in a 'march' from The Glen high school to our new home, cnr Primula & Garsfontein Rds.
The Magnolia Dell market was brilliant, but I do have one regret... I said no to jumping on a massive 'Jumping Castle'!?!
 
My mind is racing like a mad bull-cow dancing in a chicken-run, and I type slower than I think...
I have finished thinking, and I'm am now thinking of bed?!?!
 
God is beyond great, beyond awesome, and I still say,
Serving God is Fun!

The best thing about fruitcake

I love fruitcake, but not for the fruity bits or the brandy inside. I love the covering of the fruitcake -- the royal icing and mar-zi-pan!!
 
Although I do eat the cake, I prefer the bits with loads of icing around them...
 
I'm tired and need sleep, especially after reading a silly mail chain thingie about good luck...
Who needs good luck when you have God as your best bud???

First name Last name, and other odd things

I had to laugh at a response to a question via email. In my inbox, the entry read:
From: First name Last name
Subject: RE: blah blah
 
I give a lift to a youth member of the Eastside Community Church Youth Group (U*th) and he sent me an SMS:
"Send me a message when you are the gate"
 
I've been driving two identical cars in the last few months, the only 'difference' is in the outside appearance - one is Metalic dark-Blue with tinted windows and mag wheels; the other is snow white with clear windows and steel wheels.
I went to a U*th event and one of the girls remarked that I have a new car -- all I did to the blue one, is I put new seat covers on! ...and I spent 7 minutes explaining to her that the car is STILL 10+ years old - I repeated myself a million times too...
 
.......and the best thing about all this... whenever i sit in front of this computer to type about my funny things, i forget the lot, so i'll send this off so you can read it, as it has been too long since i posted anything to this!!?!
 
Or perhaps a real funny thing for me, driving home at night, the driver in front of me thought i was following him, until i turned into my driveway... you should have seen it -- yes i know, it's not that funny, but still, it takes up some pixel space...

Rest, Paint, Rest, Sing, Eat, Sing, Inside, Sung! All on Thursday...

Today was an interesting day.
 
I got high on water-based paint fumes. I couldn't see the paint as it was splattering all over me. I saved my glasses and found out about lunch 30 minutes late...
 
The student group got to paint the church and I got to put the final coat of paint on in the boardroom! And then I came home to play on my (musical) keyboard, finding a song to sing at the choir audition! The strange thing was that I sounded all nervous in my singing when I was not even nervous of singing in front of the people I knew.
 
It was fun and I loved it. The only problem is that I have already forgotten where we will be practising...
I just want to do music!
I can either sing forever, or play an instrument...
 
I'm gonna now go play my violin,
Thanks for reading!

Wednesday on Thursday

I woke up, had breakfast and went straight into my books.
I had lunch and supper for 30 minutes each time.
I aimed at finishing at 18h30 - I finished at 21h30.
 
Doing 30 multiple-choice questions is not easy, especially when you expected the assignment to only contain 25 questions...
 
Wednesday was only about my assignment.........

26 April 2006

Tuesday, the day of Assignment #3

Today was a success - I started to finish my pyc201-5 assignment 01!!

Then I was reminded to hand over issues to God, but I wanted to try
something first. Now I see that I may have wasted my time over things
that if given over to God, would have been sorted long ago...

Youth Community Boards [www.youthboards.za.net] is growing at a steady
rate and it is slowly spreading via word of mouth. I can't see any other
boards that need to be added - that's what the board request forum is
there for!
I wonder if when I chose to use postgreSQL as the database, it was God
doing the choices - oh well...

At around 8pm I put a music cd into media player [I stuck the disk onto
the monitor] and it's still playing. I had thought that it had grown
into a bigger cd, but then I remembered that I had the player set to
repeat...
and to think, I am a fundi...

Right, everyone is asleep and the silly download is almost complete -
I'm a bit scared of the time, but God's on that one! oo, the download is
done and now I can get to bed at long last!!

Later today I hope to email another blog - I decided to try blog
everyday... I know, it WILL be random, but then that's just me and what
I want my blog to be. I won't follow any standards, but I will perform
the following command each time I connect to IRC - /timer 0 120 /msg
#suiscript ping/pong - but this will be once in a while, cuz I'm only
gonna use email and occasionally login to gmail when permitted to extra
web-time.

Hmm.. I started to say I was going to bed? OK, then bed it is!
Praise God,

My Profile is wrong

So I've tried a million times, but my profile is always wrong.
It should read that I'm an UNISA student and that my picture is @ http://www.youthboards.za.net/viewtopic.php?t=8
 
I also make note that my website is down - I couldnt even change the look @ www.malcsman.za.net
 
and as for mail, use my gmail.com with malcsman as the user... I think my site died?!?
 
Thanks for reading,
Now I'm off to church to play with the multimedia before church starts!

Change of Note!?!

At long freakin' last, the MULLET is off and I have control over my hair again!!

The mullet died around 12PM on Tuesday 18 April 2006 - When I discover the exact date I grew the mullet, I'll tell you - then you'll know just how old it became!!

Well, this has to be cut short and I shall go to bed!
