So Friends is on Netflix right now. :) That's extremely exciting for me! Mostly because in between homework I can now binge watch it! Now for other things! I LOVE this book that I have. It's called Arena by Karen Hancock. Basically, this girl is transported to another "world" to have her life tested. The book was more or less a massive metaphor for how we are supposed to interact with God. I would highly recommend this book to people who want another way to look at the Bible. :) |

Here's the finished product of my time lapse! I hope you all enjoy it! :)
Loss." Here's a short synopsis to get you guys hooked. ;)
He woke up in a strange place. A place that he didn't remember. Now he has the task of not only trying to restore his own memory, but also having to find and restore the memories of everyone he meets as well. Comment below if you guys want to read it when I'm complete! I'll post a chapter a week if I get more than 10 people interested. :)
When I was really little (and even now that I'm older), I really liked Lady Bugs. They are my favorite bug EVER. Well, one day, I was younger and I wanted to see Lady Bugs. So, in my innocence I prayed to God to bring me Lady Bugs. Soon after that, my mom and I would go outside and Lady Bugs would come from everywhere and land on me and land on our Butterfly Bush. There were literally thousands that year! And ever since then, I haven't had problems finding them or catching and releasing them! Well, recently as I said above, I've been fighting God and been very angry with Him. Also recently, more and more Lady Bugs have been appearing. They've been landing on me, landing on the windows to my dorm room, landing on flowers that I'm observing. I've had to rescue a few from inside classrooms, even! I'm pretty sure God is trying to say "Remember that time you were a child and prayed to me for your needs? I'm right here. You can still do that." Psalm 56:3 What time I am afraid, I will trust in Thee. I keep logging on to the various websites that I use (Tumblr, my blog, dA, etc.) AND EVERYTHING KEEPS CHANGING!
On DeviantArt, the tool bar at the top of the site has been flipped completely and the home page of the site is starting to look like FACEBOOK! That's part of the reason I got RID of my Facebook! Because it was too much FACEBOOK!!!! Now, I log onto my blog and how you make a new entry is all different too! It's all too much for me. :( On a less--frustrated--note. It's Friday! And we all know what that means!!! (Especially because this chick doesn't have homework this weekend) VIDEO GAMES! ;) I will be playing Genesis Classics, Halo, and Skyrim. All on the 360 of course. So while I have a video game-tastic weekend, all of you have fun weekends too! God bless! I have always been bad at consolation. I don't know when to hug someone, I don't know what to say (if I should be saying anything at all), I just don't know what to do! I'm so awkward when it comes to these things. I'm going to school to become a psychologist... so I should at least know a little bit of consoling, right? Wrong! I don't know the last thing about it! But tonight... a friend needed me. I don't really know what happened in my brain, but something clicked. I just felt like I could carry the weight of the world on my shoulders. Now, I don't know if I helped at all but I managed to make her laugh a little bit, so that's at least a little better for me. I still don't really understand how all of this works, but even just getting that small laugh from her was better than nothing (especially making her more upset--which I have done in the past)! What happened tonight, I think, was God's way of telling me to pay attention to the world around me. I know more about this stuff than I really think I do. Just like my devotional said today: "... I'm with you in times of trouble..." He has never been more right. Psalm 28:7 "If your happiness depends on somebody else, I guess you do have a problem." ~Richard Bach
I am heading back to school this week! I'm really excited about it. Why? You might ask? Well let me tell you! IT'S MY LAST YEAR! Let's see what else? I'm going to the Creation Museum! It explains everything from Day One to the extinction of the dinosaurs! This place is incredible. The last time I was there, I even met Kevin Ham!
My roommate's birthday is today.... Well all of the sudden she comes into the room and yells "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ARIA!" and puts a card and present on my bed. The picture to the left shows what it was! :O It was very unexpected but it's a beautiful gesture if you know the reason behind it. You see. . . From a very young age, her and her siblings were taught to give and not just receive on their birthdays because the gift of life is the most precious gift they could ever receive. I think that that idea is so cool! *I* might even start doing that! |
