I've literally tried to write this post four different times in the course of a month. Things are just constantly getting in the way. I can never find a time where I just sit down, and do something that makes me feel good about myself. Every time I've tried to write a post, I have started each one with a different title.
One was titled "culture shock " but I stopped mid paragraph because I couldn't actually write anything that had to do with what is happening with my life right there in that moment.
I have so much going on I am struggling to keep them all together in my head.
So to actually start this post, I am just going to list what is happening in the life of Arielle.
School - I have all the school work ever. Almost more than I can handle.
Youth Ministry- I love my girls more than anything, but right now we've hit a couple of bumps in our journey together and it has been a little tough. I love every second with my favorite little ladies.
Friends - BALANCING MY FRIENDSHIPS. I wanna be close with a lot of people, but holy freaking man is it difficult.
Potential lovers - I chuckled at this, because there are none. Sure, I may be fond of someone, but little miss Arielle is, and probably will forever will be known as "My friend Arielle". HEY GUYS WHATS UP. I mean, I'm just ready to be close to someone on a relationship kind of level. I AM READY TO GO. Others like to tell me," Your'e young. Live while you can." HA. Yep, young and I have the desire to be in a relationship. But don't worry, the search is over, (that's a lie, my menu is always open) But patience.
also, Pairs don't grow on trees gentleman.
Friends gig - I am so incredibly stoked for this day in particular, because I haven't been to a good concert in a good while. Not only is my friend opening for a band that is so stinking good I cross my eyes every time I mention how good they are, I also have the freaking opportunity to meet them. It's gonna be beyond awesome. So. Freaking. Stoked.
Homeless people watching - I get to chill out and be security all night. I might even get to connect with some people. Kind of excited, but also not because well, sleep.
Thanksgiving - This will be a moment where I can just chill out with my family and eat all the food I want. oh wait.
I work retail.
Black Friday - Two words: Thirteen hours.
Work - I stinking love all the people I work with. I hate the higher management. Don't apply for retail unless you know the company well, and the company itself has their crap together.
A Friends November wedding - I got a hot date, and her and I have Fro telepathy. so it'll be fun cause we gon look hawt. and I'm gonna do my hair all nice. I might even put on fake eyelashes. hahahaha... Totally won't because, I ain't about that artificial life. (menu will be wide open ya'll)
A friends December wedding- I also have a date, but with a dear friend of mine.
Another wedding in December - My step mom is making the desserts for this wedding, and I will help make all the desserts in the world. There will only be about 50 people there, but we are making about six different things.
Over 50 cookies
Over 50 brownies
lots of cheescake
home-made candy
and all the cupcakes in the world.
all that have to be freshly made for the day of the wedding.
Christmas - More family time^.^ But actual family time this time.
Then,
Isreal the day after Christmas. I GET TO RIDE A CAMEL
and sleep underneath the stars on a ground that Jesus himself roamed.
and the best part is, I get to spend 11 days OUTSIDE of America (I love America, I just want to experience something different, and a culture shock.)
with the people who kinda have my heart. #SEUMAlife
In no particular order, this is just a chunk that I have floating around my noggin at every moment of every day.
I needed to get all that out, because, I was on the verge of exploding.
Me currently.
But wait, i'm chill. Promise.
Just on the verge of insanity.
