Blissful Adventures

This year started off on Sunset Blvd standing on top of the roof, overlooking the stars and city beneath us. Our new years was filled with shots of Jack and compelling conversations about art, acting, and every topic you can imagine. When he walked me downstairs, he pulled me aside and left a gentle kiss on the left side of my cheek.

"Happy new year", he said as we parted ways. What a blissful and innocent way to begin 2015.

There I was with a potential actor being walked into a friend's car on that chilly and unforgettable night. Apparently, his acting was too good to be true because the date he promised to take me on did not happen.

I was stood up shortly afterwards.

It was not as devastating as I imagined being stood up would feel. He still called several hours after our arrangement but who knows what kind of lines he would have delivered on the other side of that microphone. He is, after all, a performer. An entertainer. He plays characters on a daily basis. I was not in the mood to interpret his fabricated sentences. I was not in the mood for bull.

This year, I have made a commitment to myself. No matter how great looking, amazing, smart, talented or intellectual the opposite sex is, I told myself to keep my standards high. Keep my values high. Keep my morals in tact. That is what every woman should tell herself before anything. We are all bound to get disappointed by something or someone. However, it should never be the determining factor to the rest of my life.

Keep you posted.
