Writers Block

Writers block..... I have it! Bad! I used to have so many ideas of what I would want to write about here on this wonderful blog but now I am stumped! I have at least five different drafts saved on here, yet to be finished, and maybe never published. Some of them need a video or a picture, some need words, some just don't even make sense! Have you ever had something happen to you that just took up all your time and brain power from then on out? Well that is kind of exactly what happened to me. I'll tell you the story now, just in case you're curious.
So once upon a time there was a girl named Araleigh and she just kind of lived life. She just had a normal life that rarely changed. Get up, get ready, go to classes, get home, do homework, eat, watch TV, go to bed. Repeat, repeat, repeat. The only exciting part of any of her days was when she heard from her missionary. She counted down days, even hours, until she would hear from him sometimes. Then something amazing happened. She got a message from said missionary saying that our mutual friend Dakota would be bringing something to me, sent from the missionary himself. Needless to say, she was kinda excited. So she waited all day to get this surprise.. not really paying attention in classes or when she tried to do homework. Finally the time came when good ol' Dakota was standing outside my door. He handed her a little red bag that she quickly ripped the stuffing out of only to find a camera. She was a little confused at this point, she already had a camera. All of a sudden, Dakota grabs the camera out of her hands, turns it on and points it at her saying only "OK go." She stood there not knowing what to do until from around the corner...... walks her missionary in the flesh!!! Her eyes opened wide and she looked at her roommate behind her as if to say "Is this really happening?! Please tell me this is really happening!?!" Then she ran and hugged him as tight as she could while he kind of laughed and she almost cried. It was definitely a tender moment, and it was all caught on video! After that, the rest is sort of history! They lived happily ever after and all that kind of stuff. :)
In case you didn't guess, the girl in the story was me... ;) and the missionary was Nate. It's been a week since he's been home and we spend every second of extra time we have with each other. Which might explain some of my writers block seeing as all I really think about is him too. And once I can get the video to upload to my computer, I will put up my post about surprises for you guys to see! I hope you liked my story because it was based off a true story! I'll keep you updated on how the story really does unfold! Until next time.. <3
