A Princess Without A Prince

Hey Y'all! I know it's been like a lifetime since I've last posted, my apologies. I have been super busy and preoccupied with a lot. So as you can probably guess by the title of this blog, this blog is based around the subject most of us love - which is love itself. Almost everywhere I go, I see a "happy couple". There is always someone with someone. Our world has gotten pretty used to the whole idea of being with someone, so it almost seems foreign when there is a single person in the mix of it all. From the moment I was six years old, I had the dream of being with someone, someone who could make me feel as if I was the only one in the world , as though I was worth more than a thousand shining pearls. I was solely convinced that I would one day marry Kendrick Lamar- which is a side note of course. Singleness is something that is almost looked down upon by our society. We have become so accustomed to having the mindset of being with someone , and if you are not in a relationship you're doing something wrong. Oh, how we have been lied to. Don't get me wrong , being in a relationship with someone is something special, something nothing else can take the place of and if you're in one, then you must know exactly what I mean. I am currently not in a romantic sort of relationship , but am open to future possibilities. I have come a long way from six years old , thinking that having a boyfriend would be life's greatest definition. However, I have always been an open minded king of person, willing to take an oppeetinity if it comes - a "Go Getter" some would even say. So let's hold up for a sec. If you are a single person , you know the consistent struggle of the question " So, is there someone special ?" If I could count the amount of times I have been asked this question, I could fill a jar of M&M's - twice. It used to bug me so much when I was asked, I used to feel so lame because out of my 5 best friends, I would be the only one still single. Understanding that singleness is not a curse or a pre destined future can be tough. I am going to University and am still single , but when I say that I have learned so much in my singleness , more than I would have being in a relationship, I'm telling the complete truth. I have had the opportunity to grow in so many ways. It's been such a blessing to live the single life - and continues to be as I'm still living that life. So if you are feeling as though you don't fit in with your clique or group of gals- be reassured, singleness is such a gift and the best learning process you could have. Trust me ! There is someone out there for me and for you and when the time is fit, they will appear to you just when the time is right. Keep learning , keep growing and keep being you !! Be single and patient to mingle. You are all so worth it . Much love !! - A Xo

If Life's A Movie, Where's The Popcorn?

Have you ever heard someone say "life is like a movie, you just sit back and enjoy the show"? Well, I sure have. I remember a number of years ago I was at a local theatre only to walk in and see a line for the consession stand all the way to both doors. Ugh, who wants to wait in line that long? Not me! So I proceeded into the theatre to find my seat ..without any snacks. I'm all for going to see movies in the theatres but who goes in without a snack?! Apparently I did. As I sat down all I could think about was munching on some popcorn and drinking a cold pop. I was irritated but it beat standing in line for forever. Soon enough, the lights began to fade and people started to quiet , the movie was starting. I don't think even a happy meal from McDonalds could have lightened my mood. So after about 2 hours of sitting watching a movie-without a snack, it was over. I was hungry, annoyed and just so done with the consession stand workers (even though they did nothing), sou...

Introducing Me!

Hey Everyone! Welcome to My Blog. My name is Abby, and I'm 17 years old. I have always thought the idea of having a blog would be so neat. From the bloggers who over ecstatically give bits and pieces to the well, hacks of life to the ones who use it as an outlet to realease their most transparent thoughts. Hate to break the ice this way, but I'm neither. I think that digging deep into how we genuinely feel and acknowledging that No, we're not perfect and Yes, we will be thrown curveballs in life is completely ok. As I thought of what to name my blog, I had some rather strange ideas, such as : popcorntobutter , like what does that even mean?! It finally came to me. I chose to name it Diamonds Pearls And Problems because let's face it, life is certainly not glitter and diamonds all the time. This blog is aimed mainly towards the attention of women,  but can be for anyone. We all have those questions in life, the ones we never seem to get answers to. Ya know , the ones th...

Hey, I'm Back

Hey ya'll. I firstly want to apologize for this INSANELY late post, life has been...SUPER busy, and SUPER dramatic to say the least. A lot has happened since the last time I was on here. So, where to start? weeelll, my life has been nothing short of complicated. I started this incredible new life here at KU, and am loving it here, though homework load is slowly crushing my every inch of sanity. Oh, yeah I broke up with my ( ex) boyfriend of two and a half years, guess that's recent. Why did I do this, you ask? I had known for a long time that we were not meant to be together, maybe for a short time, but I knew we were not supposed to be together forever. Yeah, that was hard. I had a lot of support through it, though. My parents offered a lot of support, my best friend, and some friends from school. One in particular really was/is a huge help and support, not sure how I would have gotten through this without him, not to sound overdramatic or anything, but really that's the t...
