// lotsa thangs.//

more creepy adventures of ariana. yay.

so a week ago i went with my sister to shoot a wedding in virginia. i reeeeeaaally didn’t want to go because it would take up my whole saturday, when i had things planned, and what did she need me to do anyways? i’m not a photographer.

but she pretty much had no one to go with her and dragged me along.

I LOVE WEDDINGS. thank you. there are just so many things that made me so happy in my faith and content in waiting for the one the Lord’s intended for me.  but imma focus on other stuff.

we were taking some shots of the girls getting ready, then we did some shots of both of the rings. my sister sent me to the guy’s room to return the ring to the groom. on the way i passed one of the groomsmen, who smiled and said hello.  he was pretty dang cute and looked about my age. i learned once we started taking the groomsmen shots that he was the groom’s younger brother, and he was 18. boommetoo.  but i prolly looked like an idiot cause i didn’t really do more than stand on the side during the group shots.  

his best man speech was wonderful and God-filled.  his love for his brother surpassed that of earthly siblings.  it was awesome hi i love you.

and get this: HE’S A QUARTER ASAIN. boomperfect.

i know i get very easily obsessed with guys and stalk their facebook over and over. but i don’t think it’s me thinking i’ll actually end up having something with those specific guys.  i just think they have attributes that are SO ATTRACTIVE i can’t ignore it or forget about them.  

that’s just what i want to have and BE to non-believers.  not that i want everyone to be attracted to me in that way, but to see a light that i seem to see in so many.  a light they want to question and know more about.

ghaa i just love people but are terrified by them at the same time.
thank you i’m just gonna crawl into a hole now. 

// observations about the O.C.//

aka my new favorite show

1. everyone breaks up with each other for someone else, never any lag

2. the sound effects for ryan’s punches are much louder than anyone else’s

more to come

// the stand//

so i haven’t vented about anything for a while. but i’m peeeeved.

i applied for a job at this local place a lot of my friends have worked, cause i wanna make a good chunk of cash this summer. my goal would be to make enough to pay for at least part of a car.  so i interviewed and got the job during spring break. i told the boss when i’d be back from school and that i’d be gone for a month for summer staff and that was all fine and dandy.

so i call her today to let her know that i’m back and would want to train and start working ASAP. 

and she tells me i wouldn’t be able to work the stand until the end of may (i leave beginning of june for SS) because she already made the whole schedule and priority goes to the high schoolers who can work the whole length of the season.  but if i wanted to start right away, they opened a new location where i could work from 12-8 on wednesdays and thursdays.  well, the new location is in carroll county, like 20 minutes away.

I.DON’T.HAVE.A.CAR. 

i knew this would have been an issue at the regular location, but if i couldn’t borrow a car for any particular day i could at least get someone to drive me because it’s 5 minutes away. but i’m not gonna be like “hey friend, take 45 minutes of your day to drive me to work.” and the whole point of working is to try to get a car. but that won’t happen if i can’t work BECAUSE i don’t have a car.

and it’s not even really a snowball stand.  i got hired to work “the original snowball stand” on woodstock road, but the only way i can actually work is to work at “chirp” in carroll county. i grew up with this place and that’s why i wanted to work there, not some experimental place they just need some people to babysit.

that’s like someone applying to USC Columbia and getting an acceptance letter, but then when they get there they’re like “oh, no, we decided we need some more people to go to the branch campus. no biggie.”

i just don’t know how this is gonna work. and if i have to go find a new job…. you’ll be hearing more from me.
