Pain and Going Home

It's probably not what it sounds like....
Click bait. Sorry XD
Alright, so let's do a brief recap of yesterday. I'd planned on having this post up by yesterday but, I was so tired. 
We ended up going to visit our old church after many months of not doing so. 
The reason we had to leave our old church is because it was too far for us to drive 45 minutes every Sunday and stay connected with living so far away. 
So, we were really excited to go back and visit.
I honestly cried. Upon driving into the parking lot, people started waving at us. 
It was such a wonderful time of visiting with old friends and dozens of hugs, high fives and...yes. I was crying.
It seriously does so much getting to see your best friends, hug them and have people welcome you 'home,' after months of being away. It was such a fun time. 
One of my favorite things can't really be described in words. I can only say it was wonderful being able to spend time with my church family and share laughter, tears and celebration with them.
I had a couple of pictures I took with my friends.
I think it's been proven, I'm terrible at taking group photos but nevertheless
So, yeah. It was lit, fam.
Hehe. Anyway, after that wonderful morning/early afternoon, me and my family went to get lunch at Del Taco, where I excitedly bought a churro for dessert. #Churros4dayz
Here's a photo of that.

Isn't it glorious? I agree. After finishing that churro, we drove home so I could get ready for the night we had ahead, and get a few chores done. Also, side note - all day I was jamming to Alex Aiono. If you don't know who he is, I recommend looking him up because he's basically an angel who deserves to be loved and supported. He's also like my favorite singer right now...and that's saying a lot, because as previously stated in the introduction of this blog, I'm very passionate about music.... So yes, I rate Alex a 15/10. (I'm actually listening to him right now). But, enough of that! Back to the topic at hand.
As soon as we were ready, we left back out for our (current) church's girls bible study.
Except...it wasn't a regular bible study that night. It was supposed to be Zumba night, but that's not what it ended up being. I'd describe it more as a workout boot camp. 
I'm still sore, to be honest.... But, it was so worth it. My good friend, Cherri, ended up showing up and it was an altogether fun night.
LOTS of stair climbing and jogging involved, but hey, if you're dying next to a friend, it's all good, right?? 
So, yes. Thus ends yet another day in the life. Very exciting in contrast against today, which consisted of school...and muscle pain from yesterday. I also recorded a cover of "Hasta El Amanecer" which is a popular song that's all in Spanish...so that was pretty different and fun. Maybe I'll share it with you sometime. 
Anyway, I'm going to make some tea and go to bed. 
Blessings  and churros to you all.

Art Show

Well, I'm a bit late posting about this art show that took place at my church this past Friday, but I thought it was worth posting about. My younger sister and mom both had submitted pieces into this art show, so my dad dropped them off at the church a few hours later and came home. While he was gone, I took the liberty of making a Facebook live-stream consisting of the typical Kiah- flailing around and calling it dancing. Anyway, after that, we ate dinner and then headed over to the church.  There were a lot of older people at the show and some families.  I ran into an old friend and hung out with her for awhile and a couple other people I'd heard of but never officially met until that day. It was overall a calming experience.  The funny thing is, when I'd first walked in, I looked over and saw tables covered with various desserts and was like, "OH MY GERSHH THERE'S SO MUCH!!!" So, naturally, I ate a lot of dessert, but that's okay. We'll just c...

Grace warriors Retreat 2016

Image
I had the amazing privilege of going on a two day trip up in the mountains with 18 other girls and our amazing leaders.  I could honestly write about this trip for ages, so instead of not sparing a detail, I'm just going to explain what I gathered from it spiritually.  Going on this trip was definitely memorable and full of laughs, just like anything I go to involving other people.  However, even extroverts get overwhelmed sometimes. I couldn't have been happier but, I needed some alone time after we'd gotten to the gorgeous house which was to be ours for the weekend.  My sleep wasn't the most comfortable one. My sinuses weren't the best. So, the next morning, I got to spend some time with my Jesus as the sun was rising.  This was a trip where I was expecting to gather a lot from socializing with others, and though I had some time to get in some great fellowship, the most refreshing part was getting away from it all.  My inner introvert was showi...

Brief update - November

Image
Even right now, as I'm writing this, I'm stressed out. But, since I haven't made a single post this week, I decided you guys deserve a quick update from me. So, let's go into what I've been doing the last week of October and this lovely beginning of November. Of course I've had church every Sunday, Grace Warriors every Sunday Night, youth group every Wednesday night and school and chores in between. In addition, we had a wonderful time at the church fall festival, full of food, fun, face painting, helium (long story) and lots and lots of candy . Here's a picture of all the candy I confiscated. I still have a ton left, even after sharing with friends and eating some myself!!! This doesn't even picture what each of my siblings retrieved XD In addition to this, me and my youth group went on an outreach on Wednesday night, which was more fun than I'd had in a long time, despite my sickness...Which I'm pretty sure was allergies. The sudden drop...
