Breakups are never easy no matter what side of the situation you're on. Losing a friend is hard and demands an appropriate time for healing. Spring seems to be the time for singles to mix and mingle, but can also be sort of a world wind for those who haven't been in the game for a while. For some, it may seem impossible to get over your ex, but trust me- it's not! Pay attention to the facts. If he's not showing much interest in you now, he's probably not that interested in you anymore. A guy knows exactly what he wants and he will do anything necessary (or unnecessary) to get it. It may be hard for you to accept the situation, but you have to believe that it will get easier as the days go by. It takes a lot of time (sometimes years), but you have to let your heart run its course. And after all of that running, your heart will be stronger than ever and ready to love again. If you're having a hard time moving on, here are a few dos and don'ts that can help you through your breakup process:
Dos
Delete his number or erase his name from your contact list
Find ways to stay busy
Cut off all communication with him
Keep an open mind about new relationships and dating
Forgive him-let it go
Take down pictures or anything that reminds you of him
If you happen to run into a nice looking guy and you see he has a neck full of flashy beads, he's pretty much looking for a show. If you say "Hey, can I have one of your beads," he's more than likely respond with "you have to earn them". If you're into that sort of thing then go for it, however if you're not just simply smile and keep it moving. Not every guy is like this though. Some of them will eventually give them to you after a nice conversation, but I guess their logic is that it's worth a shot. 2. Get a scooter They have lots of scooter rental places and most of them are closer to the beach, Picking one up is probably not such a bad idea. Spring break brings in a lot of people to Panama so the traffic is hectic. Everyone is headed to the same area on the beach and if you're in a car the closest place to park for free most likely isn't that close. I parked in a lot on the beach for $30. Unless you're staying in a condo/hotel on the beach, the best way to get there is on a scooter. 3. Keep some type of ointment on you at all times Scars come from out of no where. Think about it. You're in an area full of bare-skinned people walking on a beach filled with litter. At some point you will encounter a scratch, scar or bruise. Just try to keep some ointment in your purse or pocket to help with the swelling. 4. Hotels are strict! This was the most shocking of my panama experience. You would think hotels would be very lenient with their guest being that this is the #1 spring break location in the state. Nope! They make you wear wristbands. If you do not have a wristband, you cannot get in your room. This was crazy to me, because it is obvious that a hotel room is suitable for more people than stated. Anyways have fun thinking of ways to sneak your friends in your room. It's all apart of the experience. 5. Find your room at least three months in advanced Again, everyone knows Panama is one of the hottest spots for college students to hang out during their break. Because of the steady population increase, it's best that you secure your spot in Panama by booking your hotel, condo, or friend's house at least three months in advanced. This way you won't run into any last minute, high-priced, unfitting hotel rooms. My cousin booked our room the week of and ended up getting a king-sized bed with a couch (there was seven of us). Plan ahead. 6. Take contact pictures Everyone is very friendly on the beach and you will meet alot of people who are interested in getting to know you. Give them the chance. Take their number, but also take their picture. Save it under their contact name. This will avoid you trying to remember who they are or where the two of you met. And if they are taking your number, take a picture with them and have them send you their name and the picture. Happy texting :) 7. Bring a portable speaker Music sets the mood, so bring your tunes with you. There is nothing more fun, than being around your favorite group of friends screaming the lyrics and dancing to a few of your favorite songs. Make sure your speakers are all charged up and loud enough to keep everyone hype. 8. Don't lose your I.D. This is very important. If you are over 21, please don't forget your I.D. If you are under 21, please don't forget your I.D. There is a lot of drinking going on and you don't want to be caught doing so without your I.D. If you are under 21 this could obviously be more serious for you as you are not allowed (in this country) to be drinking. Save it for when you are of age. It'll be cheaper for you anyway. Most clubs on the beach, charge you more for being under age. 9. You will see a lot of beer pong
I've never seen so many beer pong sand tables in my life. If you don't know anything know this- where there is beer, there is beer pong. So on this beach there were a lot of both. If you know how to play you can easily join in. If you don't, just watch and you'll eventually catch on. The goal is just really to get drunk and have a good time.
Okay. Can someone please tell me what is up with Chris Brown and these father allegations? He is not responding to any of the gossip in the manner he normally would- which is going off on people through Twitter and Instagram. Even Karruche is responding saying "good luck to Chris and his family". So it is only right to assume they talked about it and it must be true. After all of the mess Kay has taken Chris back from I have to think, how many signs does God have to send for you to get away from this man? He does nothing but publicly humiliate her. According to baller alert, she found out about this whole situation about two days before the public. Now I don't know the ins of their relationship, but we can all clearly see the outs. That man has disrespecting her way too many times. I was once told if a man can comfortably disrespect you by calling you out of your name (even if it's only one time), believe that he will go just as far to put his hands on you. Even though Chris has not domestically abused Kay, he has found multiple ways to hurt her heart the same. I really like Karruche and I honestly think if this is Chris's baby it would be a good thing for him. I think it would slow him down a little. But nowadays he seems to be all about Kay, so I wouldn't be surprised if they work it out. I feel bad for them, though. *Kanye Shrug*
Everyone should have seen Fifty Shades of Grey by now. If not, go check it out on a free online movie website or wait for it to come out on DVD, because it is not worth the movie ticket. Even though the movie received an extremely ripe tomato on my Flixster's app, to my surprise this movie was not that great. The best part about the movie was the soundtrack. I did not read the book which I thought would be a good thing, because I wasn't expecting anything. However, I was just as evenly disappointed as those who did. First, I understand Ana is supposed to be an awkward girl, but why in the world does she have a flip phone? They could have at least given her an outdated LG or Samsung phone. Even the first iPhone would have set the date, but the flip phone blew my mind. Moving forward, I overall did not like how the actors emotions seemed so forced. I may have payed more attention to this because I've taken a few acting classes, but I still feel like it was very obvious. In the scene where her and Christian first meet, she literally falls as soon as the door is open. Why? She didn't even trip over anything! I also found it very weird how they tried to make her biting the eraser of the pencil stand out. It was disguising and stupid. As for the actors, I thought Dakota was a good fit for Ana, however I do not like Jamie as Christian. He did not give me anything in his face. I think this movie would have been 10 times sexier if he could have spoke with his eyes. I also think there wasn't enough spontaneity. They tried to let the music move the scenes along instead of it naturally flowing. One minute they were laughing, then comes the love music, next thing you know somebody's feelings were being hurt. It reminded me on an old television soap opera. Would I watch it again? Yes. Even though it wasn't "movie of the year" like I expected, it was still very funny.I don't know if that's what the directors were going for, but it's something. I'm just glad I know to wait for the DVD when Fifty Shades Darker comes out.
