WHEN EVEN THE SHORTCUT SEEMS LONG

And there it is again...that thing you desperately want, but can't have...YET!

What happens when you want something, but you can't have it? you want it more, but sooner or later it finally sinks in that you can't have it so you wisely stop torturing yourself over wanting something impossible to happen and go back to your normal life. BUT, when you want something really bad, and you KNOW you CAN have it, just not right away...then seconds become days, and the days years, and it becomes almost unbearable to wait for it.

Because that's how we are, IMPATIENT, immediately irritated with even the idea of having to wait for something we want! and let me tell you something, wanting something really bad has nothing wrong with it...the problem is when instead of waiting you start plotting in your head ways to speed up the process and end up ruining things. Its better to wait and have, than rush and miss.

Remember that “All things come to him who waits” -WW

ABOUT DISAPPOINTMENTS AND SUCH...

So as you might have guessed from the title, I want to dedicate this post to all the people out there who have ever been disappointed...if you find yourself thinking about how awesome your life is, and you can't remember any time you were disappointed...well stop kidding yourself! we all go through it!

One can be disappointed by, friends, family, mentors, experiences, places, things, presents, etc...the disappointment comes from the feeling of sadness or displeasure caused by the non-fulfillment of one's hopes or expectations...meaning if you didn't have hopes or expectations, you would never suffer from disappointment, but wouldn't it be horrible to go around not having hopes and dreams, not wishing or expecting anything? of course it would! what a cold, plain and boring life that would be! that's why we need hopes and expectations in our life. The only way to deal with this, and avoid being disappointed, is accepting the fact that when things don't turned out the way you planned, its simply because God has something better in store for you.

The worst kind of disappointment ever (that I happened to be feeling yesterday) is when you disappoint yourself...because since there's no one to blame, the entire weight of the problem falls on you...but if you ever feel this kind of disappointment, just remember, we are humans and we make mistakes...

MY MOTHER IS IN LOVE WITH MY EX!!

Can you believe it?! Well... that's my theory.


Ok, I've always known that she appreciated him but I NEVER knew that she... LOVED(S) him? 
You must think I'm crazy but It's true! I mean, get over him mom! Ok ok, I'll tell you my story...


When I was going to start in the academy (acting academy), I told myself: "Camille, don't get emotionally in love (haha) with someone..." 
First month: Ok...
Second month: "I like this guy."
Second month and 2 weeks: "I don't like him anymore."
Third month (Dancing show of 3rd semester): "OMG, who is this GUY?!."
Third month and 1 week: "Hi, I'm, Camille :)
Third month and 3 weeks: *FLIRTING*
Fourth month: HE GAVE ME THE FIRST KISS :D
End of semester: We are together :) And he was SO HOT in the last dancing show... 


Anyway, I told my family: FAMILY! I'M WITH SOMEONE...
Reactions:
Sister: "OMG!! Who is he?! Is he cute?!"
Daddy: "HUH!"
Mom: "UGH..." *Rolling eyes*


"Ok Camille, don't over react, be serene" 


Things were normal, low profile you know, but they got ugly when I arrived home really late. My mother was furious and she even gave me "THE TALK." Well, I was okay with it until I started remembering and with my ex I arrived a bazillion times late, and she never told me anything. So, I asked her: "Mom, what's up with my ex?" And she answered me: "Well, you know he was different, he was... you know, he was him..." 


HIM?! HIM!!! HE WAS HIM?!?!?! MARRY HIM MOM! 


Seriously? It took me 2 years to get over this guy, and she won't get rid of him, she won't accept someone else in my life... However, this ends with me confronting her and clearing things. Now she just have to live with the sad memory of my (STUPID) ex.


"In every girl's life, there comes a moment when she realizes that her mother just might be more messed up than she is..." -BW. If anyone of you is going through something like this: Help your mother! It's not easy, but eventually she'll accept it...


Hope you have enjoy (laugh a bit)

A TOAST FOR THE PERFECT SUMMER!!!

 

Whether it is hanging out with your friends, taking advantage of the free time to make a few extra bucks, feeling the love in the air, taking courses and being productive, or simply laying back relaxing and enjoying the weather, summer is the best time of year! Marvelous things can happen if you use your time wisely.

And since we have only one summer each year why not try to make it wonderful!?! My goal for this summer is to do every single thing I just mentioned above! I see my friends frequently, I'm trying to get a job, I'm taking acting classes, I'm enjoying my free time, and tomorrow morning I leave to this amazing location for a week with the love of my life!

But whatever it is you are doing, make sure to have fun and make the best of it, because remember, you have to wait an entire year for the next summer.

So my dear readers, enjoy your summer! ;)
