Sometimes it is hard to see the lines we've drawn until we've crossed them. That's when we rely on the ones we love to pull us back and give us something to hold on to. Then there are the clearly marked lines. The ones that if you dare cross, you may never find your way back.

What did you learn about yourself in 2011?

2011-11-29T21:09:00.003-05:00

Living on high level stress the past few weeks, I let myself be carried away by the thought of my winter vacation, which is fairly close. I want to do so many things: travel, go out, have Christmas dinners, party for New Year’s, shop, go snowboarding, etc. But all I really wish for is to do nothing, maybe just sit in front of the laptop or sleep, lol. I need a break, a psychical one, from all the shit I went through the last few months. Oh, nothing bad happened, it’s just the stress and constant worrying about due dates…

As we are getting closer to the ending of another year, I would like to know if you’ve learnt anything new about yourself in 2011. I feel like I’ve learnt a lot, with the help of other people as well as being in many different situations. Here’s a short list of some of the things I've learnt:

1. I am much better at handling crises than I previously thought I was.

If you manage to keep your calm and laugh at the situation, a solution will pop-up in your mind and it is usually the right one.

2. That I don’t have to know all the answers.

In any given situation, at your job or just life, you don’t have to know all the answers, and you can’t know them all for that matter, it’s just not possible. You just have to know how to find them.

3. That I don’t fear strangers.

I could say that I re-learnt this about myself. After all, some of my favorite people today were once strangers.

4. That I take more than I can handle.

I shouldn’t overwhelm myself with anything, just because I want to hurry up to finish something in a certain time. And I shouldn’t make myself available to people when they won’t do the same for me.

5. I like pretending.

I like pretending that I am someone else. Not in a social environment though, but rather on camera or in front of an audience. It is almost like playing and being a child again. Love, love it!

Is there at least one thing you've learnt about yourself this year?

Dear John,

2011-11-12T23:15:00.000-05:00

It's Saturday and I don't love you anymore.
People change as time goes by, other people get in between, ~~but I will love you til the day I die~~.
We use them to help us forget, we use them to be reminded how to fall, to shake the dust and try again, because we've learnt that after one follows another and that no matter how real it may seem, no pain is forever. Only time can tell if resentment will chase away the love.

Saw you that cold evening,I smiled back, wondering: what the fuck do we think we found here?

It is 2:45 AM here and I am insomniac. I don't feel tired, yet knowing that I will have to wake up in less than five hours makes me cringe, lol. If I go to sleep now I'm afraid that I won't hear the alarm in the morning... and tomorrow, in fact today is very important to me. Anyways, since I find myself in this unfortunate situation, lol and with really nothing better to do o.O I thought that updating my blog would be a good idea.

Since I don't have anything prepared for you as I wasn't really inspired to write anything lately (I'm reffering to the story I am writing here on the blog), I will update you with a few drawings that I made lately...

❝

Trying to forget someone you love is like trying to remember someone you've never met.

❝

In times like these...

❝

You must be healed by now... on the outside at least... What a collection of scars you have. Don't forget who gave you the best of them...

Our scars have the power to remind us that the past was real.

❝

Don't ask me for love again. I give up!

❝

Failure is not the falling down, but the staying down.

I have been up to many other things and to be honest, lately I have lost interest in posting on the blog. However, I will keep it up and will update from time to time with the usual stuff about anything that crosses my mind. And I will also make some changes in the near future...

How to get over a break-up.

2011-07-22T18:51:00.007-04:00

Breakups are hard, there's no denying in that. However, people break-up for a reason. With that in mind, you need to get over someone the right way and also keep in mind that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. You just have to trust life on that.

There are quite a few aspects about a break-up as to why or how it happens and for some, closure is what it takes to move on or start the process of moving on. Admit your wrongs and forgive yourself, with the idea that you won't repeat them in the future. See and take into consideration the wrongs that have been done to you as well. It is very important that you do so, that way you'll learn the boundaries of your ideal relationship.

Once you break-up with someone or the other way around, there is no turning back, this is real life and not some movie where people get back together and live happily ever after.

The break-up rules:

1. Cut off all contacts with your ex. Believe me, you don't want to keep track of their life without you. This will prolonge and add up uselessly to the process of moving on. Delete them from Facebook, MSN, your phone, etc. Also move all the pictures into a folder that won't come up in your face each time you turn on your computer. Or delete them altogether.

2. I will call this one "The 60 days rule". Which means imposing yourself to not contact your ex in any way for 60 days. For no reason, not at all. You should've given their stuff and gotten your stuff back from them by now.

3. Get a new haircut. But, please don't go all crazy with it. Google trendy hairstyles or just go to a good salon and ask for something that will suit you.

You can spice it up with some streaks, even a new color or just play with the tones of your current haircolor.

4. Allow yourself a little retail terapy and go shopping. Go for sexy but classy.

5. For 30 days, make it a rule to accept every invitation you get from everyone you know even if you don't feel like it. You need to go out, meet new people, have fun and live your life.

6. Breakups are often associated with the pain you feel when someone dear to you dies and grief is normal. Allow yourself to grieve, there is no shame in that. It is rather healty and very normal and it is also part of moving on.

For an undetermined period of time, you should expect yourself to swing from feeling okay to feeling sad. You will be having good days where you won't think about your ex at all, followed by bad days where you don't feel like doing anything.

7. Be prepared to hear that they have already moved on or that they are seeing other people, even that they are talking behind your back. Some people get nasty while dealing with breakups. Of course, you may feel angry, but anger is okay, it burns the soul clean. Don't let it affect you and remember that this is not a competition, nor should you search for revenge. If you ask me, there is no better revenge than happiness. Use that energy to work on your well-being instead.

8. Another painful aspect of a break-up that you should be aware of, could be returning to known places. You can't help it but feel nostalgic and that is probably one of the times when you feel you miss them the most. What you need to do is to replace those thoughts with replaying in your mind everything that you hated about your ex. In time you'll create other memories in those places and you'll not associate them with your ex anymore.

Someday soon you will wake up and probably won't even realise how long it has been since you haven't thought about your ex. And even if they will cross your mind, you will feel nothing.

Each of us has it's own way of dealing with situations. For some it is harder to deal with things, while others are stronger and get over something much easier. Either way, it is in our nature to fight and to succed. No matter how worse the times, tomorrow will be better. And remember that you're not alone, your friends would be happy to be by your side.

Woman who loves the Berlin Wall

Yeah, this woman lusts after the Berlin Wall. She's married to the Eiffel Tower, too, which, ouch, sounds painful! lol

The No-Life Douche

2011-05-30T23:29:00.019-04:00

I have a story for you, no fiction here. I don't know about you, but I can honestly tell you that I don't like gossiping nor listening to someone gossip. Could this rejection feeling come from my own experiences with such people? Perhaps, although even before my experiences, I have never liked it. Honestly, I don't know how in the world it happens, but these kind of people always seem to find me. Although I have to admit that, in a sadistic way, I like the feeling of being someone's center piece in their miserable lives as well as the fact that after the whole truth comes out, man do these people feel stupid to say the least. If they don't, cause anything is possible, than I do hope that one day, due to some sort of miracle, they are going to get just enough neurons to make them realize how stupid they've been til that point...
Anyways, you'd be surprised that most of these people, in my experience at least, have been guys. The last time this has happened to me was a couple of weeks ago, but each time I have such an experience, it always carries me to the first one I ever had...

I was about 17 years old and had a very closed group of friends at the time. I remember meeting this guy, I'll call him Daniel. He lived close to our neighborhood and he befriended each of us. Daniel was funny, outgoing and kind and we all liked him so he became one of us pretty quickly. Little did we know that he was in fact an intruder, a bad person and to be honest I have never really understood why these people make up stories. To cut my story short, he told these big fat lies to each of us, with the purpose of turning us against each other(?) but it was so obvious that confront is a big word to use when I had a talk with my friends about it.
One of my friends at the time was a boxer and being so fed up with Daniel, as it wasn't the first time he had done it nor the sole thing, he literally kicked Daniel's ass and told him not to come back to hang out with any of us. Surprisingly or not, Daniel never showed up again.
In times like these, I wish my boxer friend still lived a couple of blocks away.

Moving on from this classic case, I want to tell you another story that is kind of similar to the situation that happened a few weeks ago. I was out one evening to a place where they served all kinds of ice cream, it was like a Paradise. Being the first time I went there, I specifically mentioned being surprised that I didn't know about the place before, since I was a big ice cream lover. Anyways as me and my companion, were at the table waiting for our delicious orders, he asked me in a suspicious tone if I have ever been there before. I said no, again but asked why. So he tells me that this guy we both knew at the time claimed that I went there regularly and that he even went there with me on dates. At first I thought it was funny, but I was in the same time disturbed by it, because of the possibility of coming off as a liar. Maybe I exaggerated the whole thing in my mind, it happens when I feel offended, but it still isn't okay.

These people can make you become a totally different self in the ears of the listener/s and portray your life so effin' different that you wonder why the heck haven't you thought of living as fancy as that, in the happy cases, lol. You know, it is strange, but we all have to deal with these situations more than once. It is best to keep your calm and try to cut them out of your life asap. Of course, it can be fustrating, but try not to give them the satisfaction of snapping at them and showing them how upset they made you. Trust me, it will be worth it, if you don't. Because sooner or later the truth will come out and as I said before these people will feel stupid and ashamed. They will be the ones to lose, because eventually no one will stick around and they will always lose friends.
If I've been harsh, well I am not Jesus and I don't see a reason why I should try to understand these people or do anything, but ignore them.

Guys..

2011-05-11T17:52:00.004-04:00

I am not happy at all with the last chapter of the story that I just posted before, but I posted it anyway, so you'd know what happens next, hehe. I might change it a little bit in the near future, lol. . Time is not my friend at all these days. To think about it, time was never my friend. My father once compared me to the first nations here, in Canada, who said that the worst thing they ever learnt was the time. And I agree..

Chapter IV - Tell her no!

2011-05-10T22:12:00.006-04:00

It was a hot summer evening, the dusty air carried a suffocating warmth. There was no breeze whatsoever and nothing seemed to break into the peaceful silence of that midummer's evening.

Chloe and Samantha went to visit Mrs. Clotier, the oldest resident of Cartier Iberville. The old lady liked to hold dinners, it reminded her of her younger days, when she was present at every ball.
At the massive, white and round table in the garden, Chloe saw Alain sitting by himself. Apparently Mrs. Clotier invited him as well. They exchanged quick hellos and a look while passing by. Samantha sat at the table with Alain Lambert and Mrs. Clotier, while Chloe walked away and sat in the rock-chair full of pillows that smelled like basil. She was facing the table, when from inside the house, a young woman made her way along the surrounding hedge to join them at the table.

- C'est ma nièce Catherine, said Mrs. Clotier.

- And Alain's soon to be moving in girlfriend, added the woman while placing her hands on Alain's shoulders.

- Congratulations, said Samantha moving her eyes from her to Alain who smiled awkwardly. It is nice to meet you Catherine.

- Please call me Cath, she said loudly.

Catherine's light ginger hair was cut into a bob, her pale blue simple summer dress made her look so elegant and matched perfectly with her fair skin. She wasn't very pretty, but her neat style made her stand out in that way.

- Chloe, viens nous rejoindre à la table, veux-tu?

- Bien sûr, Mme Clotier. She replied and walked smiling to join them at the table.

- Oh, qui est cette jolie fille? asked Catherine.

Who knew that the most simple words when put together with the smallest gestures could become like poisonous splinters, ripping her chest open from inside out, cut through it, over it... What really makes that moment where one crosses the border between magic and disbelief, hope and apathy, calm and restlessness, innocence and darkness, today and the rest of one's life?

At the end of that day, under the sunset's shades, Chloe's eyes appeared empty like two holes in a mask in which she saw Alain for whom he really was: just a stranger.

As she watched their silhouettes fading into the night, Chloe stared wistfully and wished she had him!

Happy Easter!!

2011-04-23T15:43:00.005-04:00

I wish you all a very happy and sunny Easter!!

Forgive and be forgiven:)

M.I.A

2011-04-21T00:55:00.000-04:00

So hi,

I know I've been M.I.A for.. *looks at the date of the last post* whoa! Two months?!
Well, I have been very busy and I don't quite see that changing in the upcoming months either. But I love blogging, so I will keep posting, just not as often as I used to.

The Lost Chapter

2011-02-15T23:00:00.004-05:00

The first day of school was over, little Chloe was wandering the streets on a rainy afternoon. The rush hour found her lost in time and space, trying to sneak through the big people to find her way home. Tired of walking through the windy day, she sat on a bench in front a house. She wiped her hands on her baby blue handkerchief and then took a byte from the apple her mother had put in her backpack the evening before. She took another byte and chocked on it. The next moment she felt a hand on her back:

- Are you ok?

- Yes, she managed to reply. Yes, I am.

- My name is Ryan. I saw you at school today. You sit right in front of me.

- Really? Well looks like you’re always behind me… what are you doing here?

He laughed and said:

- Well, this is my house. This is where I live.

Chloe felt a little embarrassed to tell him that, in fact she was lost.

- I am Chloe and it was nice meeting you. I will see you around! She got up and without looking back she just walked into the rain again.

- See you Chloe! He shouted.

At the next intersection she incidentally met one of their neighbours who drove her home. Maybe it was the first day of school with walking into the new and unknown, maybe it was the rainy and grey day, but when she walked into the house and closed the door behind her, she had a strange feeling of restlessness, presaging that something was going to happen.
The babysitter encountered her and cheered her up, so she soon forgot everything about it. Her parents were away on a business trip and were to come back that very evening.
Ever since Chloe was born, her parents were always gone in such delegations.

After dinner, she fell asleep almost instantly on the couch in front of the TV. Hours flown and Chloe woke up in the middle of the night because of a headache. The house was total darkness and silence. Dizzy and confused heading to the kitchen to take an Advil, she drank a sip of water and snorted out the next one when her eyes rested on the wall clock showing 2 AM. It was a habit that when her parents came home they would always come to hug her before going to sleep, even if it was late.
She ran to her parents’ room, dozen of thoughts began to spin into her mind making her even dizzier. Arrived in the front of the door, she slowly rotated the knob and opened the squeaky door, her heart beating faster and faster, her eyes searching for her parents silhouettes… empty! That moment was the end of every thought, of the worry before, any sort of feeling left her completely. She tiptoed to the living room and turned on the TV. She looked at the images playing before her eyes and the more she saw she felt as if she was turning into a stone, just like the graves she was going to carry from now on within her soul, buried unfading pain that could not get through the cold stones.
With the eyes on the clock that was ticking in her arms, Chloe decided to wait until morning before she called her grandparents to tell them the news: her parents died in a plane crash. The memory of that day didn’t come without the pain, choking her just like a million bytes of apple.

lol, this is a little update to let you guys know that I am still around and that I will be posting again soon. I know I am behind with the story too, shame on me. I don't have the time to make up excuses, I just don't have the time that's basecally the reason. But I have the next chapter to the story, just need to edit it a little bit. Bla bla...

How do you know if your purchase is a fake?

2011-02-02T22:15:00.000-05:00

These are some essential ways to identify an inauthentic fashion or beauty item:

•Labels. Make sure you know the how the real label of the brand looks like; double check the spelling of the label's name, if it's in the proper fonts, and located in the right positions on the item.

•Seams and stitching. Most designer bags are made carefully so all-over prints continue evenly around the sides.

•Lining. Knock-offs often skimp on the interior materials to cut costs (cheap synthetic material instead of suede, etc)

•Soles. If you're buying footwear be sure all identifying marks (ie, the designer's name and logo) match up on the bottom.

•Details. zippers are working, threads are the right, matching color. Many brands include authenticity cards and instruction booklets with their merchandise—you can check with the company directly to find out if your purchase should have these.

•Expiration dates. Discounted designer perfumes could be authentic, but so old that they've actually gone bad years ago.

•Packaging. Just because something is sealed, doesn't mean it's the real thing. Also check if the item is supposed to come with something, such as a dust bag or logo shoe box, etc.

MOST COUNTERFIETED BRANDS AND ITEMS OF 2010

1.UGGs
2.Coach handbags and leather items
3.Tiffany's
4.Athletic jerseys
5.Perfume
6.Nike sneakers (especially Air Yeezy and Air Jordans)
7.Ed Hardy and Juicy brands
8.Watches (like Rolex, Omega, and Tag Heuer)
9.North Face
10.DVDs (especially box sets of TV series)

Chapter III - Only Time Will Tell

2011-01-31T23:57:00.007-05:00

She has climbed the cherry tree just outside the backyard and was sitting on a branch for hours… carrying a lot of thoughts, they were never leaving her, she carried them always, just like a helmet. She counted 23 days since her family moved to France, eight days since she has met Alain, two days since she hasn’t seen him and a thousand unanswered questions…

- Tiens! Tu étais là ... Alain said, while climbing on the brunch beside her and continued: Que dans le monde pourrais tu faire ici?

- Voilà! Chloe said. Tu me chercais?

- Moi? Tes parents, se demandaient où tu était ...

Samantha and Geoff Gunn were not Chloe's parents. They were her aunt and uncle. She thought of mentioning that to him, but got carried away by the next thought of how, in return she knew nothing about him...

- Chloe, j'ai une question pour toi ... he said placing both his hands over hers.

- Oui?

- Voudrais-tu practiquer l'anglais avec moi, parfois?

- Biensur ...

- Ah, oui? Ce serait tellement bien, si tu veux et si tu peux ...

- Hello, and how are you this fine evening, sir?

- I'm fine, and you? But you can do better ...

- Ok, I'll try ...

- Tu sais, it’s funny your name is Chloe…

- How come? she murmered.

- Well, long story short is that Chloe is my favorite name. When I was in kindergarden I liked a girl named Chloe and my little sister’s name is Chloe because of that.

- Really? I had no idea you had a sister…

- Yeah, and one time I went to a gypsy, you know a future teller as a joke with some friends and you know what she said?

- No, what?

- She said that one day I will meet a very pretty girl named Chloe… someone-

- That is soo cheesy! Chloe gave her verdict. She then laughed and climbed down the tree, letting Alain know that their first English lesson was over and that she needed to head home for dinner. Stopping to look back just one more time, under Alain’s green eyes, Chloe walked feeling under some sort of a spell. With each step she took, she felt in this new way, an unknown feeling to her til that moment and that she couldn’t yet understand. But it felt sweet!

CHAPTER II - The Baseball Game

2011-01-27T18:48:00.005-05:00

Chloe woke up in a very good mood that morning, somehow she was feeling happy, but for no particular reason, in the end, she had pretty much the same life the day before. It was a beautiful summer Saturday. Late, as usual, storming down the stairs, while dressing up a T-shirt, Chloe went to the kitchen where she met her aunt and uncle:

- Wow, that's a first ... her aunt said jokingly. What is it with you up at this hour, and! All dressed up?

- I'm playing baseball and ... I have to go!

- Wait, where? Now? With whom?

- I was supposed to be there half an hour ago, it's just around the corner and I'm going with ... Alain, Alain Lambert.

- Let her go, her uncle Geoff interfered, have fun pumpkin!

Stopping for a second to take her breath after running up the hill, her eyes were searching for him: Alain Lambert.

- Bonsoir Chloe, he said jokingly to note the fact that she was late. Nous venons de faire les équipes ...

Everyone aligned in two rows face to face. Chloe immediately followed Alain to be on the same team as him.

- Il nous manque un joueur, said one of them.

- C’est vrai! And looking around their team, Alain noticed that they had an extra player, so he quickly moved on the opposite team.

- Non! Chloe protested, and went after Alain to join him on the same team. He laughed and went back into the first team, but Chloe did not relent so she followed him once again.

By now everyone else understood what was happening, and one of the other players moved so they can play together in the same team.

- Es-tu contente, maintenant? he asked laughing.

Under the summer skies, the night was slowly spreading over one of the most beautiful cities in the world and under the first glimpses of the sky, Chloe felt so small.

- Come get your portion! One of the players called her to reality.

Each baseball game was followed by a barbeque. That was the custom on each sunny Saturday. Holding the plate, Chloe was looking around in confusion, but Alain came with a fork:

- Je pense que c’est ça, he said, smiled and continued, ce que tu cherchais.

She was venturing towards new beginnings, walking on yet undiscovered paths so fragrant, where the sunbeams were sneaking through the trees’ branches to keep her warm when she fell asleep under the azure skies with rainbows arching over her way, even the time seemed to be more forgiving and friendly. Amidst different shades of color, full of mysteries and shadows, scented veils and curtains that seemed so real when she touched them with new meanings and confusions hidden behind, Chloe didn’t feel as the heroine of those days, but she rather felt as if she was reading the first pages of the most beautiful story.

I have yet to find the perfect theme for my blog, so I will be changing it a lot. Looks like I am more into darker stuff these days, and as much as I liked the theme I had before, I think I've scared a lot of people with it, lol. So that is gone now. Anyways, I will post the second chapter of the story tomorrow, so stay tunned, lol. Have a wonderful Wednesday evening!

Chapter I -THE EVE

2011-01-20T19:08:00.013-05:00

It was three weeks before her 19th birthday on a July afteernoon. Chloe pushed aside the double glass doors leading to the backyard of the house and into the peonies garden, walking the alley in her usual confident manner. The first thing to capture her senses was the unknown voice she heard coming from the table in the yard, where she and her family had their dinner every other day. She glided through the hedgerow, turned the corner and joined her uncle and aunt at the table:

- Hi dear, her aunt Samantha greeted her.

- Good evening! she said, glancing at the stranger, sitting at the table, while he got up and raised his hand towards her…

- Bonsoir, he replied, je suis Alain Lambert. C'est un plaisir de te rencontrer.

- Oh, bonsoir, French, she tought, and then continued: vous aussi, Monsieur Lambert. Je m'appelle Chloe Aston.

That day carried the scent of a fresh start. As Chloe sat at the dinner table with her family and their new neighbour, she thought to herself that maybe, them moving from California to Paris wasn't that bad after all. And for the first time ever, since they arrived in France, she felt that, even though she missed home, she might like it here.
Later on, after Chloe had given the excuse of needing some refreshment, she disappeared from the dinner table, heading to the house.

- Chloe, she heard him call, so she stopped and turned around.

- Monsieur Lambert ... souhaitez-vous une canette de Coke?

- Sure, he replied walking with her to the house. You can call me Alain, I'm just 25.

- Bien Alain, je ne savais pas que vous parliez anglais.

- Que tu, TU parles anglais et oui je parle un peu, j'ai juste besoin de pratique ...

- Okay, we could practice, she said taking him by the hand and he followed her around the house for a quick tour and then walking the narrow alley passing by the pool on the way back to the dinner table, Chloe stopped:

- And this, she said with flourish, is the pool.

Alain smiled:

- Yea. All the water kind of gave it away.

Chloe laughed:

- Fait attention dont tu me parles, she said teasingly, ou tu pourrais finir mouillé par tout!

Alain arched an eyebrow and looked from her to the pool he was standing in front of:

- Oh, non ... he said, ne même pas y penser ...

She smiled and turned to go back to the table in the garden asking:

- You’re no fun, are you?

He exhaled, relieved, when in fact he was in for a surprise. Just as he turned around, she tackled him. But he was laughing when they both went sprawling into the pool.

« Sometimes it doesn't take a lot to open someone's heart, because sometimes it's all about making the first step ... »

2011 Best Year Ever!

2011-01-11T01:15:00.002-05:00

What if someone tells you that 31st of December 2011 is your last day? How would you live the last year of your life?
After you have moved on from the shock of the news, you would probably start thinking about all the things that you've always wanted to do, but something was always in the way. Like taking a trip all over Europe, visit Asia or live for a whole month on the shore of the Caribbean Sea; spend more time with your favorite people, learning a new language, taking risks and chances more openly and the list can go on, but for once in your life to live in the moment without thinking so much about the past or the future. You will finally be able to realise and surround yourself only by the things that really matter: family, friends, happiness, harmony, empathy and love. Step back and take a different approach to everything and be spontaneous rather than planning things; focus on the state of your mind rather than the state of your body, compassion instead of selfishness, sharing instead of material possessions, and last but not least focus on the journey rather than the destination!
