THE GRASS ISN'T ALWAYS GREENER

Why is it that restaurants always seem to have the WORST gossip and the most drama out of any other place of employment? I started working at Pf Changs again and I have already witnessed sooo much gossip and drama and I've only been there for 3 days! Gossip does nothing but hurt the person it's about and make the person speaking it look stupid and immature. Can we please all just grow up?

However, with that being said, the grass isn't always greener on the other side.

This is something that I have learned the very hard way. Over the past year I have had four different jobs. I know, I know, a bit ridiculous but nonetheless, 4. I have had some great times and learned a WHOLE lot from each and every one (each one of them teaching me a little something different than the last.) What I also learned was how big of a mistake it was to ever leave my favorite and the best job ever! I look back and ask myself, "What the ---- were you thinking?!?" Just because there are some annoying parts to life that are dealt with on a very regular basis doesn't mean you have to go and run away from them. We, me especially, need to focus more and try harder on acting more Christ like and then all of these "annoying" parts will feel so insignificant.

Who cares what this person said about that person or what crazy thing that person did this weekend or what a jerk that person was being 2 hours earlier. Who cares.


Wheeewww...glad I got that out.

On a happier note, today was such a great day. And it had nothing to do with the fact that it was Valentines Day (I find this holiday kind of stupid...I think people should treat each other like it was Valentines Day EVERY day :).) Went to Praxis Church this morning and listened to Justin speak an amazing sermon about the Passover. Came home and found a suprise valentines gift on my desk from one of my roommates that was HAND made...deliciously scented soaps shaped like hearts!! :)



She is soo sweet! You can look at some other things she has hand made here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/megan15

After that nice little surprise, went to MC (that's Missional Community for those of you who don't know) and ate some hot wings and hung out some wonderful people. Then went to work where it feels like it's my second home. AND, tomorrow is a HOLIDAY!! No school! I am planning on finding a cozy corner at Cartel Coffee Lab in Tempe and camping out alllll day until my HW is done and my test has been studied for!
Please God give me the ability to stay focused and sit still for 5+ hours tomorrow
Then it'll be off to work again. And for now...bedtime

Goodnight.
