Re: TSR Christian Society (X-SOC) - Mark IIIWell you be awkward like that then.(Original post by Lantana)
This is still the first page for me, but I am odd in having it set up 50 posts/page
Oh and I thought I'd share this gem I found out...
You know the fish symbol, right? This one:
Weeellll... In Koine Greek (which the NT is written in), fish is "ἰχθυς" (ichthus - with a throaty ch) means "fish". But that's not where it ends...
...it's thought that each letter from ἰχθυς stands for a letter:
ἰ for Ἰησους (Iesous - Jesus)
χ for Χριστος (Christos - "The Anointed")
θ for Θεοῦ (Theou - genitive of Θεος - "God")
υ for Ὑιον (Hyion - "Son")
ς for Σωτηρ (Soter - "Saviour")
So the ἰχθυς means "Jesus the Anointed, Son of God, Saviour" because the way Greek word order works, Θεοῦ comes before Ὑιον.
(On a technical note, if the Greek letters come up as a series of empty boxes, then read this.) -

-Philippians 4:13
Hope they cheer anyone else up too

FINISHED! NO MORE ICT COURSEWORK EVER! I'm so relieved that I don't have to do any more stupid stupid ICT stupid coursework now. XD
No idea. I'm hoping it's just the anniversary effect of this week and then after Holy Week things might calm down. Honestly no idea why I can't sleep. I even went to the GP today for something and completely forgot to mention the insomnia(Original post by Lantana)
Oh yuck, how long is this season going to last for you?
Bambie: sorry to hear about the rejection

Re: TSR Christian Society (X-SOC) - Mark IIIHey everybody and thanks for the congratulations in the previous thread.
I've just firmed my uni. Can't wait to move to Glasgow. 
Tomorrow off to Ukraine for Easter Course... I kinda don't feel like going as I'm super stressed but ah well, I'll just bring a pack of Irn Bru with me to sooth my nerves.

Praying that it goes well for you and that the stress will abate for a while once you get to the Ukraine
