Wow...I haven't wrote anything this month? I'M SUCH A FAILURE! Cut me some slack, though; It's only the 6th. =P
Anyways, I don't actually have anything to say...
I'm super tired. I wasn't supposed to wake up until 9:30, and yet, here I am, eyes wanting to close, mind not being able to sleep.
Last night, I dreamed about working at McDonald's. Whenever I closed my eyes, I could still here the fry beeper, and in my dream, I was just watching cars drive by the drive-thru window and I was handing out drinks as fast as I could.
I think that's what you call an "unhealthy dream". That must be why I'm so tired; I didn't actually get any sleep, because I was "working" all night!
I really do enjoy my job so far. It's sort of hard trying to get in with the crew, though. It's a lot like school. Everyone has their groups and I'm the new girl. I'm SUPER thankful for the three people there who actually talked to me a lot and helped me without making me feel stupid.
Their help and encouragement that I would get the hang of it in no time reminded me a lot of the To Save A Life Bible study that the youth group at my church is doing right now. Before they talked to and helped me, I felt very alone and very unwanted. After they befriended me though, I had a lot more self confidence, I was more outgoing, and my nerves were calmed down a bit.
If I, a girl who already has a few friends, can feel lonely in a crowded work place and feel elated at the thought of attempted friendship, just imagine how we can make someone else feel; Someone who isn't as blessed as us to have a close-knit group of friends. All we have to do is reach out to them, show them that you noticed they were alone and you want to fix that.
Being a friend is just so simple! Wow...I love being able to apply my Bible studies to real life so obviously. =D
