Just your typical girl next door; wild
hair, dedicated nerd and sports enthusiast. Yeah, that’s pretty much me. Apart
form the ‘typical’ bit. I am by far not your average girl.
Most girls my age have had a boyfriend, or
two, have been drunk, are chasing after boys, party all weekend and wear as
little as possible. I’ve been single my whole life, only ever had two glasses
of champagne at two different celebrations, see boys purely as fun friends to
have (for now ;) ), am far too busy to have a social life and have a very
modest sense of style. And guess what!? I love it!!!! Still think I sound
foreign? I put a little something together with the help of my very supportive
family to help you; here it is:
Not Your Average Girl
She is mischievous,
She is loud,
She is bubbly,
She is devious,
She is the life of the party.
But she is moody,
She is shy,
She is intense,
She is cautious,
She is a dedicated nerd.
She is genuine and kind,
But she does not get crossed twice,
She is fun and competitive,
But she does not handle crudeness,
She is loving and caring,
But she is not one to get romantically
involved,
She is faithful and loyal,
But she is not a bible-basher,
She is part of the crowd,
But she is not your average girl.
I do not mean at all to criticise people in
teen relationships, you make my life dramatic and fuzzy with love, but I am not
at all an advocate for teenage relationships. I see dating as practice for
marriage – agreed? – and so I take on the teenage approach and I am not
practicing for something that is not going to happen within the next few weeks.
I am a devoted Christian, but I am not one to tell you that you have to be one
too. I will share my faith with you and pray for you but I will not force you
into anything – your life isn’t mine. I am a loud, bubbly person who loves
getting up to no good but I am shy at
heart and probably won’t be the one to approach you in town and ask for your
number. I am a touch person; you know you are in with me if I touch your arm
when I talk to you. But, like always with me, there’s a catch. I do not touch
boys. Now, before you leave your computer screaming ‘Nun!!!!!!!’ please let me
explain because I often get a lot of stick for this one. Because I am such a
touch person – seriously it’s really bad… - I get really affected when people
touch me. Honestly, I know it make me sound like a dodgy person but it’s just
my love language, when people touch me –from a touch on the arm to a hug – I
feel really warm and fuzzy inside. Because I get so badly affected I stay away
from touching boys due to a little thing called hormones and another little
thing called purity.
Ok, it’s really late, the Queen’s Diamond
Jubilee Concert is nearly finished, I am exhausted and I have had a blast in
the snow that fell today – I may leave you a photo down below… – so I will love
and leave you there on that very scrambled note. I hope that I have left you
with a bit more of an insight to my very blonde, space head brain and a little
more of an understanding of that kid at school with the strange rules and
regulations; dig into their brains, there may be a nugget or two of wisdom in
there for you.
Oh, just to finish off, I’d like to share
the lyrics from what I have adopted as one of my ‘theme songs’ :)
So what I'm not your average girl
I don't meet the standards of this world
Chasing after boys is not my thing
See I'm waiting for a wedding ring
No more dating
I'm just waiting
Like sleeping beauty
My prince will come for me
No more dating I'm just waiting
'Cause God is writing my love story
Boys are bad that's certainly not true
'Cause God's preparing one for you
If you get tired waiting till he comes
God’s arms are the perfect place to run
Sleep that's the only thing
For me 'cause when I sleep God’s
Preparing one for me
