Hello Hivers. Its been over a year now since my last post and for a while now I have been wondering where to pick it up from again. If anything has held me back from attaining my full potentials thus far in life then I would have to confess its been my long battles with depression and addiction. Thats something I have bottled up and kept to myself, which did no good to my chances of winning the fight anyway. However I thought it will be worthwhile to share it now. Of course it’s a very long story and so I figured it be better to share it in bits; you know the series kind of tale.

All this reminded me of my early years of hanging at the Louvre, always on Tuesdays (the day it was closed to the public) and where we had the museum to ourselves!

In my first post #introduceyourself I mentioned fire which is the main element of my Sagittarius zodiac sign. I have always had a lot of expression and movement has been with me since I was a child. How did my adventure with fire dancing start? And more with juggling, the tool of which are poi - the equipment that came to me at the beginning.

Growing up, I never thought that I'd study Art for so much of my life. I was always into computers, English, technology; and video games. If I could make a career combining all those things, it would be perfect for me.

Elwynn Taylor, a retired extension climatologist from Iowa State University, once said ... "If it weren't for agriculture, there would be no culture at all."

You could say I had a brain disease or my brain cells were malfunctioning. As a young child, I grew up seeing everything in trousers (men) as potential predators always waiting for their prey to devour. I grew up loathing men for just no good reason. And some people thought I had a bad experience with men or a guy in my life. Some even went as far as thinking I had a terrible breakup experience; speak of someone that has never dated in her entire life lol. I saw myself becoming vigilant and up for war and self-defense whenever the word GUY is mentioned. It was as if I was fighting a battle that was never mine. Like I was hating on guys on other people's behalf, like I was taking the bad experiences fellow girls like me had with guys as mine and trying to walk in their shoes, defend them and act accordingly around dudes. At some point, I made life miserable for some guys that approached me or came my way. I knew this wasn't right but I couldn't stop either way.

Hello there Hivers!! So today was different.. Haha today was the day I escaped. Yes, escaped from the woooman I call me mother! I like to say escape, seeing that I was born way to early. Almost a month and a half. So yes, again I made an escapade on this day 27 years ago!!

Sometimes we forget what matters and we tend to normalize the saying , “Don’t push yourself to something you don’t want to or something that you are afraid of” later we realized we did nothing.

Have you ever been so tired that even your home is not an ideal place to rest? Too many loud voices, mess, external noises, etcetera. Sometimes it’s too tiring that we just want to have a quiet place where we can rest and stay.

Most of you may not know what my "livelihood" is, the one that allows me to pay my bills and incidentally, to eat a little ^^ I'm an art hanger in museums. I work as a freelancer in a structure that gets contracts for mounting exhibitions. When the walls are mounted, according to the plans of the scenography, we arrive with our tools, mainly: a tape measure, a level, a pencil, white gloves, a drill and a stepladder - I make it short here !
