The dreaded question

So i've been at universty for around a week now and this morning whilst i was munching on my Fruit and Fibre the question was asked, personally i feel this is the question all young Salvationists hate and will try and avoid this is how it went

Flat mate : so Beth why don't you drink or smoke, do you have a serous liver problem?

Beth : (choking and spluttering, can i just get up and walk out and they not notice?)
Will i'm a christian and i believe it is not right to subject my body to it. (phew lets move on and talk about the weather, its look quite dry!)

Flat Mate: well my granny is a christian she can drink

Beth: ( good point, crap will have to explain more) Well i go to the Salvation Army and we believe that it is not right to behave in that way.

Flat Mate: ( i swear her face was like it was christmas morning) Wow do you know Harold Bishop? can you teach me to play the tuba? can i see you on Sunday in your costume?

My flat were really interested and wanted to know about my beliefs and lifestyle.

So there it was 'the conversation'. I remember being told how difficult it was but how we have to be strong and stand up for our faith. Now i think its really not something we should be scared about saying but something that should just come naturally.

However if i did drink or smoke would i have ever told them about my faith or did i need the dreaded question?

BEWARE

Its been a while ...

Now it's been a while since i last blogged so heres me filling you in...
i got my alevel results and im heading of to Roehamton in 5 days time, just enough time for me to learn how to cook and work a washing machiene!
i've travelled the world going from Colchester to Spain and then to Northern Ireland.
i have to just mention one thing that i was introduced to while on holiday in spain and this is bull running. Now to brief you, bull running is a spanish tradition involving bulls being let loose down a narrow street while crazy spanish men run to avoid being stuck by a raging bull! Now is it me but how is this fun? i did not find any enjoyment watching an old man get struck by a bull within 2minutes of them being let loose, i just don't understand.
So now the summer is over and i'm bored, daytime tv is not good and ive worked out you can't spend 24 hours in bed so here i am. Just one more thing to comment on whilst flicking through the channels i came across a program on channel 4 called King of the Hill, now is it me but i could not understand a word of it and just sat there completly confussed. anyway....
