Isn't it horrible that the title of this blog reminded me of the "If You Give A Mouse A Cookie..." series?
But seriously, when the Lord closes a door, He opens a window to keep the air circulating.
I went from, "my life is stagnant and direction-less without any hope in sight" to "HOLY CRAP WHERE ARE THE FRICKIN' BREAKS!!!! AND WAIT ARE THOSE ANGELS SINGING THE HALLELUJAH CHORUS!?!?"
I've been given the opportunity to interview with Disney for an entry level internship, one of the roles which I've signed on for and hope to achieve is the character role, but if not I'll be happy with what I get. Playing a character at Disney is actually on my "Bucket List" (one item I didn't think I'd have the chance to try) and my audition is on April 3rd in Utah. Wow, just wow.
Before this, I thought I was doomed to rot in Rexburg for another winter, apparently not. I vote Florida over Idaho any day. No offense to Idaho, it has its charms, but charm starts to wear on your nerves without any variety. So here's hoping.
Second, all of a sudden this amazingly sweet guy side swipes me out of seemingly nowhere. I think I'm still trying to figure out what happened and what's happening. I don't think he has any idea what he's done for me in the past couple weeks, and I have no idea how to tell him or even if I should, without sounding ridiculously cheesy. I blame Hollywood and every chick flick ever made.
In a very subtle way, he reminded me that there is life outside of my room and my art. And that at one time, yes, I had other interests. However, our relationship does nothing for getting my homework done. :)
Now for those of you with more normal/semi-normal social lives or just lives in general. That may seem minuscule, but to me, it was like someone saying, "Oh and by the way, the Titanic didn't sink. We just needed a really cool story to take up some space in the history books, no hard feelin's, m'kay?"
Yeah, I know, pick your jaw up.
Anyway, I firmly acknowledge this as the Lord's tender mercies for someone who totally doesn't deserve it. God is AMAZING!

What! The Titanic didn't sink?! Well, Hollywood milked that lie for all it was worth. ;)
Nah, I totally understand the feeling that comes when your stagnant pool is suddenly made into a river. But, on a very positive note- mosquitoes are born in stagnant pools, so you just drowned a large amount of potentially dangerous pests. Yay!
This whole thing makes me happy.
Yep, that's right
I'm even doing this with no jokes. It's just THAT good.
Have a good one Megs :)
Hi from Australia and Congratulations on everything.
I know what it feels like to be stuck - I suffered from mental illness for seven years. Last year they got the right meds and since then I've written a novel and a play and gone back to school.
Like you I praise God for these things.
All the best and God Bless
Amber
