Just cried for three hours straight because i don’t know how to process the emotion of love properly which scares me.

I don’t like it

I’m trying hard not to cry right now because I’m in the car with my mom and if i start to, my mom won’t drop it.

Is this what heart break is supposed to feel like or am I just having heart palpitations?

[It's Ara]

you know some times i wonder why i even bother with some of the things i do.

and i don’t mean this in a negative or depressing way, i just mean, “okay so i have to re write this whole chapter because i accidentally forgot to save it. so here’s to hoping i remember what i wrote”

I HAD A DREAM I was the

AVATAR

and there was this ROOM and there were 4! BIG! WOODEN! POSTS! with strings that met in an x shape and on that X-SHAPED STRING THING there was a BOWL with a CANDLE IN IT and this old man was like “you need to use all 4 elements to leave” SO I WAS LIKE OH OKAY

- BUT THEN -

There was this RANDOM ASS MAN in the corner across from me and I was like “yo who’s that guy” and the old man got MAD AT ME and said “NO ONE! focus!!!” and so I got SAD that he yelled at me so I said okay!!!

Then the old man left and I started trying to use all my powers and I got EARTHBENDING and WATERBENDING and FIREBENDING DOWN but when I tried to do AIRBENDING that guy in the corner kept stepping closer to the center and when I was about to ask what he was doing he started FIREBENDINNGGGGGGG toward the bowl so I started Waterbending and it made this

COOOOOOOOL blue LIIIIIIIGHT

And I said “OH MY GOD THATS SO COOL”

And he growled and went “YOU NEED TO FOCUS” and I was like HUH and he yelled for me to AIRBEND and tried to get me again so I grabbed the bowl and started RUNNING FOR MY LIFE and then while he was chasing me I was like

“Wait! Aang said airbending is all about flow. I just have to be calm and focused”

And then I woke up

So basically if I was the avatar I think I’d struggle with airbending the most how about you guys?

I think you dreamed you were avatar kyoshi, but instead she was the new avatar and Aang was a previous one.

The fact that many people at school call me “space-bow girl” really puts into perspective for me.

Like that’s what I’m known for all over the school. Every kid knows me. But not by legal name.

[It's Ara]

Okay is it just me or do you guys ever just pause a show or movie during a certain scene so you can act out how you as a character would have altered the flow of the plot or is that a me thing?

(I work the floor at an independently-owned menswear store. The owner, my boss, spends a lot of time at the shop, and tries to keep prices as low as possible to help our city’s large homeless population get good job interview clothes. A clearly homeless man is wandering around the store. The other patrons are giving him looks.)

Customer: “Excuse me, sir?”

Me: “Yes, ma’am?”

Customer: “I think you may want to call security. That… bum over there, he keeps feeling the suits and muttering to himself. I’m just sure he’s planning to steal one.”

Me: “Well, ma’am, I think that’s quite unlikely.”

Customer: “Oh, come on, you know how they are! I mean, I’d keep an eye on him even if he wasn’t homeless!”

(The homeless man in question happens to be Hispanic.)

Me: “We don’t discriminate here, ma’am.”

Customer: “Well, I’m sure the owner would want to hear about this!”

(I give in and call him over. The customer explains her concerns. As a black man, my boss isn’t happy with her racism, but agrees to talk to the homeless man.)

Owner: “Excuse me, sir, are you finding what you need?”

Homeless Man: “Well, not really. I’m hoping for something versatile in a dark or navy wool, but most of the options in my size are cut American style instead of European, which fits me a little better. Not to mention they’re all pinstriped, which I really don’t have the build for, you know?”

Owner: “I… yes, I understand. I think we may have some options over here, if you’ll follow me. How did you know all that?”

Homeless Man: “Back before I lost my job, I used to be really into this stuff. I’m not looking for anything fancy, just something I can use to look good for a job interview later today.”

(My boss helps him find something he likes, and comes to the counter with him. The suit is priced at $87.)

Homeless Man: *digging in his pockets* “Hang on, I think I’ve got enough.”

Owner: *to me* “Take my card. I’m buying it for him.” *to the homeless man* “Here. The suit’s yours, on one condition. After your interview today, you come back and apply for a job here too. Got it?”

Homeless Man: “I… oh my God, thank you. Thank you so much.”

(Two years later, that formerly-homeless man is my manager, and has a little girl with his new wife—the owner’s sister.)

There’s one of these in my town too. Stores like these are so crucial.

The ending is so heart warming. 😊
