The First Month of 2014

It's been a whole month of 2014!
Already? Time is going so fast, like in that one spy kids movie no one really heard about.
It was alright.
Anyway: January.
It's been a pretty casual month.
With no University or work at the moment, there hasn't been much to do.

I did buy myself a Wii U for Christmas.
That's been a lot of fun.
I've decided that I want to beat all my old wii games on my new Wii U, so I made myself a daily schedule so that I can beat all my games.
It's been pretty good, I'm due to beat Super Mario Galaxy later today.

There was a bit of drama at work involving contracts and a bunch of legal stuff I know nothing about, but it's all been taken care of now, so that's good.
The Centre is due to be open to the public on February 14th, so that's exciting.
I plan on going down, grabbing a master key, and taking a tour.

And one of the new rooms in the centre has become a bit of a project of mine.
I get an email or a phone call from my boss every couple of days or so asking about something or a rather.
It's really exciting and I can't wait for it to be finished.
That's one of the things I love about my job, I get to use my talents in areas that I'd never thought I'd use when I applied, like computer skills and gaming skills.

I'm also like a month into my internship (even though it doesn't really start for another couple of weeks)
Been helping Krystle with this project that's happening in April.
Had to make phone calls and stuff.
I thought I would be nervous but it's turned out pretty good.
We had our first youth services this week.
They were lots of fun, we played games for most of them.

All in all, looking forward to a great year.
For some reason, I feel a lot less stressed out this year, like my mind is a lot less bogged down.
Looking back, I always seemed to be worried about other people.
I'd always get a Word for people, and then stress out about it, but I went to a conference about half a year back and I spoke to the guest speaker about it.
He told me that when God gives you a Word for someone else, it's your job to tell them, not make sure they follow it.
It was pretty good, he told me that he had some experience in this area and that some the leaders he had worked under were a bit "leader prideful" and thought they knew best, so he left them before they ran smack dab into the wall he was trying to steer them clear off.
And no one got on the Titanic after it hit the iceberg (that's an assumption, I've never actually seen the Titanic).

Omigosh, that reminds me. My flatmate Caspian can't go a week without being shocked at some movie I haven't seen.
Like The Lion King (people always gasp at that), but I know what happens, I've played Kingdom Hearts II.

What was I talking about? Oh yeah, clear minds.
So yeah, mind has been free.
It will probably be under more pressure once university starts but, hey, I'm looking forward to it.
Nothing I'm currently associated with is heading down the Iceberg Path.
Man, that's poetic.
The Iceberg Path, by Joel.
Yay, gonna be an author.
Nah, I'm actually going to go play mario now.
