That Awkward Moment When....(SDA edition)
So. Picture me sitting at my little computer at work trying to catch up on charting. A guy comes up to me inquiring about my pt because he wants to know the height and weight (which is in the chart/on the bed by the way but we won't go there) to make a brace. Cool. I look it up and give him the info. Homeboy out of the blue asks me if I'm Adventist. He was already lingering a little closely mind you. lol. Umm...yes? He responds in praises and worship in jubilee because I wasn't 'dolled up and blinged out' (or something to that extent).
OH. OK.
Alright, to Some extent that's....nice I guess. Being 'different' and somewhat 'set apart'. Or Whatever. But seeing that I was recognized as an Adventist by a fellow Adventist kinda defeats the purpose, no? And I'm sorry but I don't believe that outward appearance was the sentiment behind 1 Peter 2:9 . BROWSE through that chapter and see what you think. Come to think about it, I learned that verse in elementary school and it was used to defend Why why shouldn't wear makeup, jewelry, etc...but that verse isn't an entire SENTENCE. -__- We gotta do better. What testimony is it Really to see someone without makeup and jewelry? Kinda feels like something that makes you proud to be a part of some type of elitist group with no real goals. Cause if That is a high point for us? I don't know...
Point is. We have to do better. Salvation is the game here, not eye shadow and earrings debates.
I hope you enjoyed your Sabbath!
OH! The...24th was my 3 month mark for my locs! Woop!

WELP.
Hey guys!! Its the second day of the best month of the year!!!
*jigs*
So a few things have happened/are happening:
1) I just passed my 2 month loc journey mark on the 26th? (Yeah we'll go with that lol) I was all excited to post pictures but...I just got a new phone yesterday and I JUST discovered that either I no longer have the SD card or they miraculously disappeared. Lo Siento. So you'll only get recent pics. But....YAY TWO MONTHS!! ( ._.)
2) My Birthday is next week!!! I'll be going back to the city I went to college (Huntsville, AL) to celebrate. Most of my friends are still there. :/ [Those friends include my boyfriend. Oo la la!!] :D I'm honestly just really excited to see him. [shrug] BUT, I'm always up for a good celebration that involves food eatage. In preparation for this great occasion I've been shopping. Unsuccessfully. It takes so much for me to like something. If I Do like something right off the bat its SUPER expensive and not worth the immediate gratification. WAIT. That concept applies to all things in my life. HAVE. MERCY.
Yeah I really just had a moment. :). So I got a few things: a shirt, skirt, dress, glasses..think that's about it. Nothing that I vaguely imagined or could afford. A lot of things also didn't fit. -_______- I'm always down for the tailoring but I'm not doing that to Every dress I buy. Sorry.
3) Tomorrow, I am going to class instead of working on the unit so I'm going to try and look cute. *SIGH* Scrubs are so EASY THOUGH!! Ah Well see how that goes. Maybe put on some make-up. Meh.
SPEAKING OF MAKE-UP...My face has been breaking out and its annoying THEE CRAP out of me. I REFUSE to wear make up everyday. The ONE DAY I did that I forgot I had it on I rubbed my face on my White scrubs. SMH. So No. I do think its clearly up...even though there's an annoying stubborn one just chillin. My main problem really isn't breakouts but the results thereof. Scarring. Freaking ridiculous. Doesn't do anything for your self-esteem I tell ya. AND I haven't been working out? Yeah...I'm pretty much losing at this point. I've decided to give up juice and stick to teas and water for a while. I can only drink but so much at a time (don't ask lol) so it might as well be something that's not sugar and artificial flavors laden, right? Right.
K, Bye!!
