supernatural

my friend jeff v. from college called me up tonite & said he was in town with work from charlotte & asked me to hang out. i said sure because i hadn't seen him in forever & we always give each other good girl/guy advice. ha. we rolled over to speakeasy to have a drink & see my good friend david a who works there. it was fun times, but let me tell you what i was told this evening from david & justin...

"mellie, you are probably the coolest girl i know. you're about 50% tomboy- like wearing a t-shirt & jeans playing in the mud throwing it at people, covered in it still looking cute and 50% "hottie" like wearing a pretty dress sitting at nonnah's eating dessert. yeah, girl, you're probably THE only female i know who isn't crazy. you're no drama, & that's awesome."

that made me feel really good. i hate that so many girls give us a bad name for being crazy bi-otches. i'm really glad that some people can see that we truly aren't all like that. i enjoy being zero drama & i've always been that way. my friend christian used to say "you're so cool because you're chill. you're not crazy like most girls i know." i'm really glad, but why is it still that the guys i like never like me back? do some guys actually get off on drama girls? do they want annoying girly frou frou girls? if so, move on along because that's not what you'll get if you get me. sorry for you.

in other news i'm super excited because some of my dear married friends became members at my church yesterday. i invited them a while back & they've been coming ever since & now they're members. how cool!?! also, jeff & i were talking tonite & he told me that the service i invited him to a while back was so what he needed to hear that he still hasn't stopped thinking about it. that night happened to be about "being a man of God" & he's been working on himself ever since. that is so awesome to me. i'm glad God is using my church to change some of my friends. love it!

work is going well, too- still a LOT of learning & trying to understand when i do what & how to do it, but i think that once i feel more comfortable about everything i have to know i'll really really enjoy it. i still can't believe God gave me this cool job. how can i be getting paid for this!?! it's so funny how everything in life has led up to this point. different situations that i thought were meaningless had a point in leading me where i am. hard things i faced help me relate to others that have/are facing similar situations. people that i wondered why the heck were they a part of my life have gotten me where i'm supposed to be & introduced me to people i'm supposed to know. God is literally supernatural & it BLOWS MY MIND. i get mad at myself for ever not trusting Him for a single second because i know where He's gotten me. I can't even imagine where He's going to continue taking me. It's amazing. thank you for being supernatural, God, & knowing what i need way better than i ever could think or imagine.
