There’s nothing left for us to say but goodbye. I’m trying to get my closure but his condition was for me to give his ring back.

I don’t want to give it back. Its mine.

I’m planning to enroll myself to several classes where I can get certified at doing something. Although I know I don’t need to enroll and learn them in a formal way, getting a certification from an accredited entity gives you the entitlement and the formal certification that you do something good and you are license to do it.

I’d like to enroll in a makeup class so I get certified as a makeup artist. I also would like to enroll in a cooking class and if I enjoy it enroll in a culinary school and get hired for some Executive Chef Jobs. I also would like to take a formal social media class so I can get the certification too.

But honestly most of those with certificates are just holding a paper but if you try them out for the job they don’t really know that much compared to those who are practicing it but don’t have that paper. Oh red tape and bureaucracy! Crazy!

Lingerie for kids? Seriously? Stop the madness now, let kids be kids! Don’t take away their innocence, don’t take away their childhood. Let them be cute not sexy! What’s the matter with you French people!
