Heaven Online: lifestyle

Hello loves! How is life treating you this first month of 2020? My schedule has been hectic as always and I've been on the go non-stop but I am feeling surprisingly optimistic about what is to come. I am just trying to focus on the things that make me happy like making time for my friends and family, writing articles, taking photos etc.

Speaking of photography, have you ever wondered how you can take that perfect, insta-worthy picture? I know I have. Even though I am by no means a professional photographer, I have often found myself wondering about camera lenses, lighting and angles. Even though spontaneous photos can come out amazing every now and then, there is no denying that it take meticulous planning in order to achieve the desired shot.

You need to check your source of light, your expression, your pose. And what happens when you have taken everything into consideration and your photo comes out wrong because of an element in your background you failed to notice? Well there is no worse feeling than fixing it, then trying to re-create the photo and failing. Instead of engaging in this process that can easily take a toll on you, spending various hours on photoshop trying to create a visually pleasing photo or dedicating a large portion of your time to decorate and light the background, there is one much simpler solution.

Have you ever tried using a backdrop? It can be much more fun that it sounds. Take your mind off the stereotypical DMV white background that is frankly nobody's piece of cake, and try picturing fun and colorful backdrops that will instantly elevate your photos.

I stumbled across Fox Backdrop, a while ago, and I spent so much time browsing through their selection. I just couldn't stop. There are so many different designs to choose from and believe that it would be rather hard for you not to find something that pleases you. No matter what you are looking for, odds are that it's on there.

Plain or colorful, resembling a real scenery, a texture, an actual background you will find outdoors and much more. There are also different options to choose from regarding the materials, the shine etc.

These backgrounds could also come in handy of you are into filming YouTube videos. They can act as the perfect canvas that will enable you to show your personality and shine, while helping you maintain your privacy. I know it's 2020 but, let's face it, not everyone is super into exposing their private lives or the interior of their home to strangers. That's why backdrops are such a hit among creators.

Hence, there is really no reason for you not to opt for a beautiful backdrop the next time you plan a photo or video shooting. Head over to foxbackdrop.com to find your dream design!

Have you guys ever used a custom backdrop? What other tricks do you use to take the perfect photo? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below! ❤

Hello my darlings! Have a nice month! I can't possibly believe that it is May already - it seems to me that time is flying by so fast and the weather is changing even faster. As we speak, it is around 30 degrees Celsius in Athens and everyone is at the beach... I have mixed feelings about this situation since, one the one hand, I adore warm and sunny days but, on the other hand, I wanted to enjoy spring a little more instead of jumping right into summer.

With warm weather also comes the dreaded image of our bodies in teeny tiny clothes after a long winter. Maybe we overate during Easter break, maybe we didn't devote enough time to working out. And maybe we just like to beat ourselves up and always think we are not good enough. In my opinion, every body is beautiful as long as the person is healthy and happy. We need to love ourselves and our bodies, not just on the surface level, but from inside out.

It took me a while to realize that the type of food we choose to fuel our bodies is critical. Yes, you could eat very few calories of only junk food and lose weight. But is it good for you? Is it nourishing your body? Is it providing you with the right amount of energy so that your body and brain can function properly? Probably not.

Healthy eating - and not dieting - is not a temporary solution. It is a lifestyle, a state of mind. And, believe me, it is not all fun and games mainly because we are constantly surrounded by temptations. And don't even get me started on those foods that double as "good for you" but are rather unhealthy.

Anyway, today I wanted to share some healthy recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack in order to prove to you that eating clean can actually be really tasty and fun!

Sweet Apple Snack

My first idea is so simple and easy but so delicious. All you need is a teaspoon of organic honey, a pinch of cinnamon and an apple. Simply, mix the honey and the cinnamon together, cut the apple into slices and dip them in the sauce. A quick and easy snack that you will love if you have a sweet tooth.

Sweet Spinach Pancakes

My second recipe might scare some of you, but have some faith in me

Just blend together some oats, some spinach, some almond milk, some cinnamon and one banana and throw the mix in the frying pan.

Just calculate the portions yourself, depending on how thick or thin you want your mixture to be. Serve with fruit, nuts, and honey (as seen in the header). Believe me, it tastes so good, especially if your bananas are ripe enough.

Zoodles

If you know me personally, then you know that I could live of off pasta and be perfectly content. I have a deep love for Italian pasta and Asian noodles of any kind so, when I heard about this healthier pasta version, I knew I had to give it a go. Zoodles are basically zucchini "stripes" that resemble noodles.

Usually, people use a spiraliser for a quick fix, but I didn't have one so I used a peeler.

Keep in mind that once you throw them in the pan they are going to shrink so you need to add more in order to feel up your plate. Here, I paired them with ground meat and basmati rice and I sprinkled a bit of cheese over top to add more flavor. You could really pair them with anything though!

Pizza Stuffed Zucchini

This one offers all the flavor of a pizza without the added carbs and calories from the bread. Just cut half - slices in the zucchinis (not dicing them all the way through) and fill the gaps with your favorite pizza toppings. Cheese, pepperoni, tomato etc. Dip your bites in tomato sauce for more flavor!

Hello darlings! How are you this lovely winter's day? I am currently enjoying a night in since my plans got cancelled but, truth be told, sometimes you need s little time to relax, do nothing and just be with yourself. Of course, being the workaholic I am, I decided to work on my blog 😋 But I am very pleased with everything I accomplished today so that's a win in my book!

Anyway, today I wanted to talk to you about this thing called "gymtimidation". It's been around for a while but I guess nowadays there is a name for everything. If you have never heard of it before, I am sure you have felt it. Basically, it is the feeling you get when you hit the gym after a while and everyone around you seems to be so fit, dedicated and proficient and all you can think about is your muffin top or how you can squeeze a delicious muffin in your daily routine. 😅

I believe that social media has a lot to do with that fear too. It feels like everywhere you look you can see incredibly thin or fit people, working out daily and religiously sticking to their healthy routines. That can put so much pressure on you.

The first thing you need to keep in mind is that every body is different (yes that gap was intentional). Some people can eat tons of food and not gain weight, some have the tendency to gain muscle easily and some strive for months in order to reach their body goal and still don't see the desired results. So you can work out twice a day, every day and still not look like those fitness bloggers on Instagram.

And that is perfectly fine. It is important to listen to your body and eat well and workout because it is good for you. Improving your appearance in only a plus. Give your body what it needs and don't push too hard. And if you want to look like those bodybuilders at the gym, keep in mind that they didn't always look like this, that they once were where you are and that they got where they are with hard work and dedication.

Do what feels right for you and steer clear from the extremes. And don't let others' success bring you down. Turn that fear into inspiration and, instead of dreading to go to the gym, use those people as real life motivation.

You can take a look at this chart to see that you are not alone and that, frankly, it is all in your head. Don't let anything get between you and your goals!

Have you guys ever experienced "gymtimidation"? You can share your experience with me in the comments below and don't forget to check out aaptiv.com! ♥

Good morning loves! How is August treating you so far? I've been sick for days but my cold is slowly subsiding and I am ready to seize the last days of summer!♥

Here, in Greece, summer equals a long pause when it comes to parties and events since everyone is pretty much scattered across the country on vacation. But, as fall approaches, people start making plans again to welcome the new season. Thus, I teamed up with Paperless Post, a company that helps you create online and paper stationery that reflects your individual aesthetic, to share with you some tips regarding events and planning.

If I am invited to a certain event, I always like to plan ahead. You need to check your schedule, RSVP (check out somelovely stationery here) and make any necessary purchases. The invitation will usually state the dress code (casual, formal etc.) and you must stick to it. I start by browsing my closet and checking to see if I have any outfits appropriate for the occasion and, preferably, something that I haven't worn to an event before. If I don't, I will go out and buy something and I will choose some pieces from my mum's recent jewelry line to go with it. If it's a birthday, a baby shower or a wedding, you must also take the gift into consideration.

If I am hosting the event (which I love to do) I like to pay attention to every little detail. Date, guests, food, music, decorations... As for the invitations, it depends on the type of the event. If it's something informal and I'm only inviting close friends, I will probably design the invitations by myself and send them via email. If it's more formal and the guest list is larger, I will order my invitations online and send them the traditional way.

Lately, online invitations have been extremely popular and for good reason. It's a fast, easy and very millennial way to communicate with your guests and friends and there are so many different options to choose from. Take Paperless Post, for example. They have collaborated with designers such as Kate Spade and Oscar de la Renta to provide you with stunning online cards and invitations. They have so many beautiful designs that I find it difficult to pick a favorite.

I will definitely use them the next time I'm planning an event, especially if it's related to fashion. In this business, looks matter more than anything else and you need to stay true to your style and manifest it in any way possible. From your clothes to your work and even your invitations. In my experience, a good invitation can make it or break it for any event.

If you are interested in digital cards and invitations, I highly recommend you to visit www.paperlesspost.com and check out their amazing stuff!

Hello my darlings! How is your day going so far? Personally I am enjoying the summer heat and trying to relax while I'm catching up with work. I absolutely adore summer! ♥

In case you forgot, wedding season is on, at the moment, and the struggle is real. Not just for the brides and grooms to be, but also for the guests. Because even if you are opposed to the idea of marriage or you are too young to get married (like me), you still have to attend. And God knows how many weddings we'll have to go to this summer.

Sure, planning an entire wedding from scratch is no picnic, but attending one also comes with things to worry about. What will I wear, who should I bring as my +1, what kind of gift should I get them?

Luckily for us, Zola is here to help. It's an online platform for wedding planning and registry, where you can find useful tools and a wide selection of wedding gifts. Since they are bomb when it comes to weddings and I kinda shop for a living, I teamed up with them to give advice to wedding guests regarding the gifts.

Let's start with some basics. Usually, the couple will provide you with some guidance on that matter. A registry, a bank account to deposit money or (if you are close) a gift suggestion. It goes without saying that you ought to follow their will.

Giving the couple money or gift certificates is perfectly acceptable and, some would say, easier. They could use it for their honeymoon or to buy something they need for their new home. Just make sure that you deposit the money on their bank account and not show up with a check the day of the wedding. #classless

Same thing goes for the gift. It is rather distasteful to bring your gift to wedding and it may cause discomfort to the couple as well. You should send it to them prior to the wedding and make sure that it's clear that you got it for them. This way, they will be able to send you a thank you note once they return from their honeymoon.

Now, if there is no registry, you free to choose any gift you like for the happy couple. Proceed with caution though. If you are close to them, you could always ask them what they need and it's always good to include all the necessary papers in case they want to change it for something else.

The gift should reflect your relationship with the couple and show that you put a lot of thought to it - especially if they matter to you. Also, if they brought you something expensive at your wedding, you should probably do the same.

If you are close with them, you may be tempted to get them something funny or inappropriate. Don't 😝. Opt for something more classy and timeless that they could keep for years and years.

Moreover, if you only know one of them personally, it's no right to get a gift just for one of them. Their wedding symbolizes them becoming "one" and that is what the gift should be about. Get something that they could both use.

As for the budget, it depends on your finances and on your relationship with the couple. The closer you are, the more you need to spend. If you are involved in the wedding (bridesmaids etc), the gift should be pretty high end and boujee (300$ +)

If you don't know the couple that well and they just invited you out of politeness, you could get away with a pretty cheap gift. Get them photo frames, inexpensive kitchen tools (like frying pans, woks, mixers etc), trays, towels, platters and home decorations.

For friends and family that you are not extremely close to, the price rises a bit. Kitchen appliances are always great (toasters, slow cookers) and so is cutlery and knives. You could alsο get them sets for the bathroom or the kitchen and even china. If you want something chic and efficient, opt for a vase.

If someone you're really close with is getting married, you are expected to spend a bit more. The options here are endless. You could get electronics (camera, TV, stereo), expensive appliances (mixer, espresso machine), vases, pitchers, glass sets, luggage and even furniture. That golden bar cart really caught my eye!

All in all, keep in mind that the gift should come from the heart and should reflect your feelings towards the couple, as well as your personal taste. It should be clear that you were the one who picked it out and that you did it with love.

What do you guys think about all those gifts? Which one would you choose for the next wedding you're invited to?

I accidently came across this challenge by Popsugar and I decided to give it a go! I thought it would be a nice addition to the "lifestyle" portion of my blog which, sadly, is a bit neglected. But, above all, I thought it would be really fun for me to try. I couldn't be more single at the moment and I found the post very tempting and inspiring.

Thus, I'm going to record my daily progress here and see how it goes. The challenges are pretty simple and not that much time consuming, which means that every single girl can give it a shot. Maybe you can start with me or wait and see my thoughts at the end of September. Or you can just sit back and laugh at me^*

Whatever you decide to do, I know that I'm excited to start!

______________________________________

Day 1: Follow a hot friend of a friend on Instagram

To be honest, I thought this task was a bit lame at first. Like, just follow someone? Where's the fun in that? Oh, how wrong was I. First of all, it is actually quite a task to find a hot friend of a friend. You have to find the right friend and then scroll down their list of followers and check out every.single.guy! Since you don't need to think if you could ever have a chance with him or something like that, you don't need to compromise for anything less than HOT!
After checking out like 50 different profiles (keep in mind that some are private) and believing I would never find anyone decent, I finally found one I really liked. Tall, blonde, with piercing blue eyes and a very model-like face.

>Let me tell you, it was so much fun to do this and I definitely think it would be even better to do it with a friend! Obviously, Ι don't expect this guy to follow me back or anything but I enjoyed a single girl's privilege and certainly had fun!
Just be careful because, once you find that "one", it can be a little addictive ;)

ps: that clearly is not the guy I followed, but I think he's a great fit for today's challenge and he just happened to appear when I refreshed my feed #gottaloveinsta

______________________________________

Day 2: Write down everything you want in a future partner

This seemed like a rather easy task at first. Indeed, I came up with a bunch of different things but after a while I was just stuck. I asked my mum for help because we have similar taste and pretty much the same opinion on what matters in a relationship. It was easy enough for her, but then she was stuck too. It's kinda hard to write down every-single-thing!

Finally, I made my list. I know there is probably a lot missing and I am aware that it is quite impossible to find all these qualities in just one person. I am not delusional. It's just the challenge^* Plus, I realised that I don't know anyone with these qualities(at least one or two of these), so I have good reason to be single.

Smart
Protective
Trustworthy
Good sense of humor
Passionate
Charismatic
Hard working
Acts his age
Down to earth
Caring
Tough but tender
Romantic
Brave
Respect for me/himself/everyone
Wants the same things
Fair
Good listener

Understanding

Honest

Loyal

Open minded

Mature

Responsible

Educated

Sociable

______________________________________

Day 3: Write down everything you don't want in a future partner

If you love to complain about boys, then this challenge should be a great fit for you. At first I just wrote down random things, but then, I realised that all I had to do was think of all my ex-boyfriends and of all the people I don't "like" in general. From that point on, it was easy! Although I had to keep myself from mentioning "serial killer" and stuff XD

Again, I am not delusional. It doesn't mean that if someone has one of these qualities he's immediately out of the question. Relationships are much more complicated than just black and white. After this challenge though, I was happy I don't have to deal with anyone with these qualities.

Arrogant

Stuck-up

"Oedipus complex"

Self centered

Stingy

Over-bored

Jealous

Over-protecting

Careless

Childish

Too spontaneous

Lazy

Indecisive

"Patriarchal"

Racist

Cheesy

Short-tempered

High maintenance

Fear of commitment

Cheater

"Player"

Critical

Passive

Kiss-ass XD

Possessive

Depressed

Vain

Irrational

Impolite

Liar

Day 4: Get glammed up for a bangin' shameless selfie

I'm not going to lie. This was my favorite challenge so far! I absolutely love to wear makeup and it was nice to actually have a reason to take so many selfies. The only one I posted was on snapchat, but I have many more. It felt so good to see all the photos looking really nice after the edit.
It really boosts my confidence even looking at them by myself, let alone posting them and getting flattering comments. I guess there is not much more to say here, apart from the fact that realising how pretty you are-everyone is pretty in their own way-is truly important. Any guy would be lucky to have you and you should never feel ashamed for your looks-only confident!
Here is my selfie♥

______________________________________

Day 5: Go out for drinks at a place you've never been to before; don't leave without meeting a potential prospect

I unfortunately only did the first part! I went out with a guy friend(ONLY friend)-that's why. But I couldn't care less. I really liked going to a new place and trying new things and I enjoyed people looking at me, even if they didn't make a move. And we had a great time! It's nice not to think about boys for a while and just be yourself with your friends. Plus, we also saw a cute guy that we already knew and I had small talk with him ;)

The only downside is that apart from the guy-presence who prevented people from coming over and talking to me, I also know that it's my fault too. I've been told before that I'm kinda hard to approach at first, so I guess I need to work on that.

______________________________________

Day 6: Unabashedly make eyes with somebody (or everybody) you find attractive

This was fun! It’s very liberating to be able to flirt with your eyes with pretty much every hot guy in the room. I tried to be discrete, but still, it was great. I don’t think you need to be a daredevil to do this and I assure you that you will feel pretty good after exchanging looks with someone you find attractive.

______________________________________

Day 7: Download a new online dating app and give it a shot for at least the day

I was pretty skeptical about this. I’m not into online dating, that’s for sure. But I thought I should give it a go, just for fun. I downloaded Tinder because this was the only one I had heard of. It was hilarious to rate all these strangers and see so many different people. I found some matches but they all lived far-faaar away and one of them didn’t even speak English. It was fun, but I wouldn’t say it’s a good way to meet someone serious.

______________________________________

Day 8: Let a friend hook you up on a blind date

I asked a friend to arrange a “date” with a hot friend of hers and, gladly, she agreed. She would be there too with her boyfriend but she had to cancel because of some kind of family trouble. No blind date for me I guess. But I’m not disappointed. Maybe I will try it again in the future and maybe something great will happen!

______________________________________

Day 9: Give your number to somebody you've been eyeing

Is it a shame to say that I’m not eyeing anybody at the moment? I’m not “into” anyone right now and I kinda have mixed feelings about it. I’m over my “ex” (we weren’t actually together) and I’m open to meet new people. Sure, it’s nice to feel that way about someone, but it’s also awesome to have no strings attached or anything like that.

______________________________________

Day 10: Spend a wild night out with only other single friends

Luckily, I have quite a few single friends. Me and three other girls unexpectedly decided to go out on a girls night. We ended up clubbing until early in the morning! We met new people, we danced and we had a really great time without a doubt♥

______________________________________

Day 11: Plan a night out and encourage your friends to invite people you don't know

Well, I did, but my friends weren’t really into that idea. Some of them tried it, but eventually we ended up going out by ourselves. I even had a gathering at my place and I told people they could bring a friend, but nobody brought a stranger...I guess I need to hang out with more interesting or sociable people XD

______________________________________

Day 12: Reach out to someone you passed up on before when the timing wasn't right

Oh boy, was that an idea! I happened to know the perfect person for this challenge. I’m not going to ramble about our “story” because I simply realized that he was not worth it, after going out with him again. Before that, I kept thinking that it was a shame that things ended the way they did. But going out made me realize that not only he is not worth my time and energy but also that I was an idiot believing there was more to this relationship. Very redeeming and comforting experience that I definitely recommend if you have any unfinished business! Plus, I don’t really believe in timing. If someone really likes you, they find time and make an effort. And so do you, of course.

______________________________________

Day 13: Invite someone you only really know via social media to hang out in person

Unfortunately, I didn’t know anyone like that. Actually, I do, but they all live abroad. Plus, I would be a little intimidated to meet someone I met online. I guess I watch too much “Catfish” he he.

______________________________________

Day 14: Finally block or unfriend an ex who you aren't on particularly healthy terms with

Again, I don’t have a person like that in my life. Thankfully. It’s not that I’m friends with all my exes, but I always try to move on. I’m not really the kind of person who cuts people off.

______________________________________

Day 15: Start a conversation with a stranger

Well that was an easy one for me. I tend to start conversations with strangers all the time. It might be the lady sitting next to me on the bus or a little girl who is smiling at me or, in this case, a hot guy dancing in a club. I know, a club is not the perfect place to initiate conversation, but I sure enjoyed having small talk with someone who was interested in me.

______________________________________

Day 16: Go out with friends to a karaoke bar and sing a girl-power anthem

We had some technical problems with this challenge. There are no karaoke bars around here so we couldn’t go to one XD Right now I say it’s too bad because I would like to try it out once and I think it would be fun. But, on the other hand, I’m pretty sure that I would chicken out if had had to go on stage and have my “Sex and the City” moment!

______________________________________

Day 17: Spend an entire day not looking at social media

Being a person who works with social media, uses social media to communicate with friends, schedule dates, work on college projects and much more, it is obviously impossible for me to do this right now. Looking at social media is my way to get information about anything concerning my life and work. Sure, I get my fair share of makeup tutorials and funny videos, but it’s not only this. Maybe during the holidays I can try to do so. I honestly want to do this because I believe it will be good for me to let off steam for a while-but that while is not now-unfortunately.

______________________________________

Day 18: Go as long as you can without texting back your confusing friend with benefits

I did this and I’ve done this many times in the past. Sure, it’s hard to refrain from it in the beginning, but as the days go by you start to realize that it is literally all in your head. After all, if he is that into you, he will come after you!

______________________________________

Day 19: Throw out old mementos from past relationships

I don’t really have any mementos from past relationships because I usually throw them away with anger (usually towards myself) when the relationship ends. Actually, scratch that. I probably have some, but I have absolutely no idea where they are! Out of sight out of mind, right?

______________________________________

Day 20: Do something daring with today's look and spend the whole day thinking positively about yourself

That wasn’t much of a challenge for me since I love to experiment, especially with my makeup and go out with let’s say almost black lips at 6 p.m. I’ve learned to “pull it off”, I guess, and I don’t care if it turns some heads. After all, I get compliments too!

______________________________________

Day 21: Spend the evening dating yourself with a favorite film and a good dinner

One of my favorite things to do when I have the house all to myself and I feel like I need to unwind and reenergize for the upcoming week, even when it’s not part of a challenge. I generally like to spend some alone time on a regular basis, probably because I didn’t grow up with any siblings around.

______________________________________

Day 22: Join or start some sort of new social group, like a book club or softball team!

Does going to a completely new college count? Yes I’m a freshman this year and so far it’s been really nice. I’ve met some great new people and I’ve started to engage into interesting subjects. When it comes to boys, I can’t say I’m impressed-but I’m used to it after all these years XD

______________________________________

Day 23: Buy a fierce new 'fit and save it for a date you're really, actually excited about

Please! I don’t buy new clothes for men. If I buy something fierce, it’s not going to wait rotting at the back of my closet while I’m searching for Mr. Perfect. If I buy a fierce new outfit, I’m wearing it while looking for him ha-ha.

______________________________________

Day 24: Go out for lunch with a friend; make a pact to not talk about your love lives even ONCE

We didn’t make a pact, but we didn’t talk about our love lives. And it felt gooood! I mean, it’s nice to chit chat about boys and laugh with cheesy stuff, but a break doesn’t hurt either. Plus, if you can talk with your friends ONLY about boys, you really need new friends.

______________________________________

Day 25: Head out to do something by yourself, like hanging at the beach with your dog or reading at the park

I went shopping, does that count? Well, there are no real judges in this challenge so I say it does. If I weren’t on a serious budget I’m pretty sure I’d be a hopeless shopaholic. Like I said, I like doing things by myself.

______________________________________

Day 26: Post a subtly flirty comment on a crush's social media post

It was a private message not a post, but I can’t really say it was my “crush”. I don’t have a crush on anyone at the moment. But even if I did...post something public...really? I don’t think so. There are so many mean people out there and the last thing I need to do is give them a reason to gossip even more than they do.

______________________________________

Day 27: Create a new memory at a place with nostalgic ties to an ex

I don’t have nostalgic ties to an ex of mine, but I like to go to the same place more than once, so I guess I create new memories over and over again, which is really good!

______________________________________

Day 28: Light candles, turn on relaxing music, and take a bubble bath

I did it. And I did it properly. With bath bombs, bath salts, essentials oils , candles and a good book. But I was in there for too long and then I had a cold...not quite sure what that means XD

______________________________________

Day 29: Ask your parents or someone you look up to for love advice

With a mother like mine, I don’t need to ask. She just delivers. I don’t listen to her all the time but when I do, she keeps repeating “you’re too picky”. Well, I hear a lot of people saying that and I also see a lot of people my age being in relationships just to be with someone. Want to know what I say?

______________________________________

Day 30: Spend today trying to have as much fun as possible, and don't worry about your relationship status!

I did, in fact I try to do so every single day. Sure, there are times when I get lonely or a little jealous and I wish I were in a relationship, but I try to stay positive. If we were to talk about a greater force-call it God, Karma, Universe or whatever-I believe that things happen for a reason and that you are able to deal with whatever comes your way. As for what doesn’t come your way, just take a moment and think about all the things that you wouldn’t be able to do then and you can do now. Like go out with your friends and be silly and flirt and party and not have anyone to answer to. Just enjoy the place you are now, live every day to the fullest and try to make your life and yourself better. Not the way someone else would like it, but the way you feel you would be happier. After all, at the end of the day, you are left with yourself-whether you are in a relationship or not-and how you feel is what matters. {I don’t say make others feel bad, of course} Just be grateful and stop worrying too much about your status.

As for the challenge, I highly recommend you giving it a go. After all, you don’t have anything to lose, right? I promise, it’s fun!
