SO... speaking of high school, I have a story. Today is Sunday, and we had church as usual. me and my roommates were sitting by some water fountain thing mingling with the other sisters in the ward and what not. You know...the usual. And then it happened. I look up, and--BAM. I see someone I went to high school with. Now keep in mind that I'm from a very small and not-known part of Southern Utah--La Verkin, as a matter of fact (reppin')-- and seeing someone you know in a town as big as Provo (in comparison to puny lil' La Verkin) is a BIG. DEAL. But this wasn't an exciting ordeal. It was the opposite actually.
This particular girl was someone who darkened my high school days. When I graduated, she was actually one of the girls that I thought: 'I will be perfectly okay, or more than okay, if I dont ever ever EVER see her again.' She was just one of those girls where everybody pretended to be nice to her face, and then when she'd walk away, this girl would be the next topic of gossip. Why you ask? Because this girl is an attention seeker. You know these girls. The type that spend forever on their hair that morning and then say, 'ughh I look like crap today.' The type that act totally different around different groups of people. Like, trying to be thug around the thugs. Trying to be Bad A around the Bad A's. Trying to act all ditsy around the popular attractive boys, and then acting stuck up around the boys who are lower on the food chain, so to speak.
We all know this type.
Anyways, I was very relieved that me and this girl didn't make eye contact, because the last thing I wanted to do was have one of those awkward '.....oh hey, I know you...but not reallly...so should we say hi?' moments. so I tried hiding behind one of the sisters in my ward and pulled out my cell phone to tell some girl friends from back home of this moment I wanted to avoid. And then...
"ALYSSA GUBLER?!?"
crap.
"Oh my goodness, a familiar face!!"
I then started to quickly hit the end button on my phone so she couldn't see the text I was sending to my friends...which had her name in all caps. That wouldn't have been awkward at all.
"Oh hey," I say, as friendly I thought was necessary. I didnt wanna be mean, because she hadn't personally done anything to offend me. But I wasn't overly fake and excited to see her either, because she is who she is. And she's caused drama with my friends, which bugged me at the time.
She then started talking about herself (shocker) and how in love she is with her fiance blah blah blah blah blah. She was almost bragging, but not. If that makes sense. She basically shoved her engagement ring down my throat so that I would compliment on how big and sparkly and beautiful it was. And then she said something along the lines of this, which bugged the crap outta me.
"Look, I know what you're thinking. Why is this little girl that just graduated jumping into a committment that lasts eternity? Has she thought about this? Is she ready? Look Alyssa. I was one of those judgers too. I did it all the time. I'm a huuuuuuuuuge hypocrite for doing it! *laughs super fakely for everybody to hear so they listen to her bullcrap* But when you've found the one, the one that you've always dreamed of, what's the point of waiting? Ready or not, HERE I COME, TEMPLE!" *another super fake laugh*
And then, me:
"oh, thats nice... It was good to see you!"
And then I waddle away while trying not to stumble in my unstable heels, giggling at her immaturity and stupidity.
I realize I'm not being very Christ-like, because if this girl were to ever come across this blog, I would feel crazy bad and shoot myself. But, considering that she blocked me from facebook, because she literally hated me a few months ago, she's probably writing the exact same thing about me on her lame blog like mine. So in the end, I dont really feel all that bad. :)
on a happier note, here's a picture of a quote of a movie I'm watching right this second. 10 points for you if you know what its from. (which should be everyone reading this...unless you live under a rock).
