Life is a precious thing. I don't know when or how but at some point we all forgot how precious life can be. I rejoy in the simpliest moments of life. I love afternoons and evenings with my family of friends. I can't take life too seriously.
I have learnt that I can't stay mad. I can't blame anyone. I get tired easily. I don't see the point. I don't give a fuck. It doesn't fit into my fucks budget. Carring about what they did to me or what they thought of me, are beyond me. Something I used to do. For someone who never thinks before she speaks, I was always bothered with the results.
Some people just don't matter. Surely, I will get mad. I will shot and scream. I will argue. I will cry but in the end, I will let go. It will stop bothering me. It took me a lot of efforts and a lot of time but I can now let go. It's such a powerful thing to be able to let go of what doesn't please you. It makes you happy.
It has freed my time and my mind. It's easier. Why did I even care in the first place? What's the point of caring for people who don't care about you or what they do to you?
If I had any advice to give to you, my bird, it would be to stop giving a fuck. It's such a wonderful thing.
Dance like nobody is watching. Speak like no one is listening - they are only pretending anyway. Put yourself first once in a while. Do something just for you. Be yourself and fuck the rest. Live today as if it was your last.
What if today was the last day of your life? What would you do?
Thank you for reading and I'll see you soon ♥ x

Hello, my birds! I don't know about you but I'm one of those people who always expect the other shoe to drop. Every time something good happens I expect something bad to happen. It's like the magical order of things. Whenever I manage to get something, I have to loose something in return. This theory has been proven time after time. It's a fragile balance. I guess it has to do with who I'm as a person. I always go whole heart.
Trust your instincts
Over the years, I've learnt to always trust my guts. It has turned out to be the best thing I could have done. I'll admit it I'm very stubborn. I have a big mouth. Maybe too much of it at times. I always go too far, too quickly. I can be quite ill-tempered. If anything, I'm a handful. I'm often described as good only in small doses. I'm buzzing but I try to take time off to reflect on things. To reflect on what I've done and what I need to achieve. Sometimes, you know deep in your soul what's right for you and what you should do. You can tell when you need to walk away. Even if it hurts, even if it's hard, you have to trust yourself. Do what's best for you. It's okay to be selfish sometimes... In the end, it's important to know when to say stop, to start over and when to simply trust that things will work out for the best.Never look back
If you took this decision, it was for the best. You had your reasons. Now, you will need to stick with it. Deal with the consequences. In my experience, no matter how scared or self-conscious I was, it turned out alright in the end. I have made some decisions over the last few months. Big ones. I have decided to choose myself. It may sound a bit silly but it's as cheesy as it sounds. I've decided to stop caring so much. To start giving less crap. I have stopped doing the things I didn't want to do. I don't have time to spend with people who don't even bother to check up on me. I don't have time or energy to waste anymore.I have had a bumpy road but I'm very lucky. I've never had to deal with heavy and very difficult things. I've had an average life. I have a mother, a father and a little brother. I had a grandmother who raised me and built me into the person I am now. Even if I wish I was half the person she was, I think I turned out okay. It can sound easy. It wasn't always easy but it wasn't nothing I could not handle. Life has a way of toughen you up. Building up from the ground where it left your breathless. I'm in an happy place right now. I'm hoping it to last a little while longer. I know it won't but in the meantime I'm enjoying it as much as I can.
I hope you're having a lovely week.
If you're searching for me, I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop. Let me know if you catch it before I do!
And you, do you trust yourself ?
Thank you for reading and I'll see you soon ♥ x

Hey my lovebirds! I hope all is well for you. I'm sorry for not blogging much lately. Life's been hectic. Anyway, I decided to come back with a blog about blogging. I know we all have different reasons for doing what we do. Most of my readers are bloggers as well so I'm hoping you'll enjoy reading this blog. Full disclosure, this is going to be cheesy as f. You know how much a girl can love her cheese. It's okay to be emotional once a while, isn't it? Let's pretend, for a minute, that we're not in a heartless world. After all, we're only humans, aren't we?
So here are a few reasons WHY I LOVE BLOGGING :
1. Writing. Writing, creating content, taking photographs are some of my favourite things to do.
2. Sharing. I love sharing and discussing things with you. I LOOOVE hearing your thoughts. I like how it feels like we are amongst friends.
3. A safe place. I love having a place where I can speak my mind. Serenbird is a safe place, a place where anyone can share her/his opinions or/and his/her story.
4. You. You are absolutely amazing. I love having a place where I can talk to like-minded people. I love meeting new people and learning more about who's reading me.
5. The Blogging world. The blogging world is such a lovely place. We are a great community. Not everyone will agree but blogging has been a good adventure so far. I have been lucky enough to get support from amazing people. I love reading blogs and discovering someone else's universe.
I'm not one to throw around the world 'love' lightly. So when I say love. I definitely love my lovebirds. So yeah, this one is for you. Thank you for everything. Thank you for www.serenbird.com 'cause there won't be a serenbird without you, lovelies.

Hi my loves! I hope all is well in your world. If not, don't despair, it gets better. It always does... I mean, it has to get better! I thought I would post a more personnal blog. It has been a couple of days since I've actually done a litte life update. I might do one really soon. Anyhow, here are a few facts - you might not know about me :
Coucou, mes amours! J'espère que votre monde se porte bien. Si ce n'est pas le cas, ne désespérez pas. Cela s'arrange toujours. Du moins, ça s'arrange. C'est obligé. J'ai choisi aujourd'hui d'écrire un article un peu plus personnel. Pourquoi? Car je souhaite que vous appreniez à connaître un peu plus la blogueuse derrière Serenbird. Voici donc quelques détails sur moi :
1. I'm bossy. I simply can't help it. I always end up bossing people around. I don't really mean anything by it. So sorry if I ever bossed you around! I guess that's a burden we have to bear together ahahah
I also love pretty and expensive things. I know that it's not something everyone can understand. I tend to surround myself with pretty and expensive things. I love being amongst pretty things. I would rather own one expensive thing than 200 cheap things. It's just the way I am. I splurge on things and well, who gives a shit. I work so I can do whatever the f* I want with my money.
2. I've been considering starting a youtube channel but I'm too much of a chicken to actually do it. I'm already self-critical as it is. I'm afraid my french accent is going to show. - trust me, no one wants to hear that...
3. I don't have a lot of friends and I like it that way. I would rather have one friend that I see every weekend than a thousand friends that are always busy and can't be here when I need them. I'm a very loyal person so I expect people to be there when I was there for them. Sadly, they always tend to vanish. So yeah, real and smaller circle of friends, it's then!
4. I'm sooo short. So short, I'm often mistaken for a child. Don't you dare laugh! It's no fun... Trust me. You're always too short. You wear heels all the time just so you'll have a proper - average - height. You often have trouble reaching out for things. It's quite difficult to find things suit you perfectly. You have that baby face that makes people think you're the nicest person in the world. - Hint : I'm not nice. Or at least, I like to think I'm not nice.
5. I want to live in the UK or in Ireland. It's THE big plan. That 10 years plan you've had since you were old enough to make any plans. I want to travel the world but I also want a place to call my home. I've always felt at home when I was in the UK or in Ireland. In fact, I don't think I've ever felt more at home anywhere else.
Anyway, I definitely want you to get to know me better but I also want to get to know you better. So share with me, in the comments below, a few facts about you. Come on! Don't let me stand - on my own - awkwardly in the corner... Come join me!
Thanks for reading and I'll see you soon ♥

Hey lovebirds! It's the end of the month. It's that time of the month. The time to reflect on life and to be grateful for everything.
So here's what's new with me :
1. I spent a lot of time with my family. I got the chance to see an old friend as well. On overall, it has been an amazing summer. In june, I went to London with one of my best pals. On July, I got the chance to see a lot of friends and do a lot of exciting things. August has been more focus on family and work but it was good nonetheless.
2. I finally managed to go to my hairdresser. After an awful hair incident - back in January -, I'm starting to feel like myself again. It's silly I know... But your hair is a part of you. After all, they're literally attached to your body. It's still a little too short for my taste but it'll grow back. We even decided to go a little lighter than usual. I'm so happy with my hair right now! He definitely brought back - aka saved - my hair. I swear he is a magiciant!
3. I met the most unusual and unique people this month! It has been such a delight. I love meeting people and getting the chance to know their stories. It opens up new perspectives on life.
4. I definitely feel like I've changed. I can't really explain it but I've grown a lot this year. I've changed focus and grown out of some things. I've shifted. I don't see a reason to keep doing or talking to people who bring me down. Life is simply too short.
5. I've changed a few things in my bedroom. I have a new floor and a new closet. It might not be much but it does change everything. I'm absolutely in love with how my bedroom looks.
What's new with you? What are you grateful for this month? I can't wait to hear what you have to say :) Thank you for reading and I'll see you on Friday! ♥

Why are you still single? Is something wrong with you ? Do you chase them away? Those are the kind of questions you're getting used to if you're single like me. Until they eventually stop and become used to the fact that you're still single. Then it becomes something like : you're going to stay single forever. you clearly are never getting married. For the record, I'm only 22 years-old. I clearly didn't realize that my clock was already ticking... Sorry about that, folks!
I recently saw the movie : how to be single. If you have not seen it yet, you definitely should! It's very funny but not that realistical about my single life. I might be doing it all wrong... Who knows... I lost my leaflet on life years ago...
I know, a lot of bloggers are actually not single. We've all seen their handsome boyfriends. Well, I'm not one of them. My last romantical relationship was in high school. It ended about a year after I graduated high school. Since then, I've been single. Unfortunately - or not - my life is nothing like in the movie how to be single.
I'm not the kind of girls who gets noticed by guys. I don't get picked or even chased after. Guys don't flirt with me. I'm your average petite brunette with a big personality. I'm blunt, friendly and clumsy. I get bored too easily. People both annoy me and amaze me. I hate judgmental pricks and injustice. I'm probably boring as well. I like being on my own. I love my freedom.
To be honest, I've only been in love once. I'm not even sure he felt the same way. I will give you more details...
Once upon a time, I fell in love with a guy that lived in a far away land and then it was over before it even began because life isn't a love story. It's simply life and people are deceitful.
And after that, there is simply nothing. I haven't had time. I've been focused on other things. I've been working and studying. I've been trying to built a life for myself. I've been trying to have a future. Maybe, they are right and maybe it's too late now.
After all, having a boyfriend by my side might not be something written in my stars. Well, perhaps, someday if I'm lucky enough. I guess, if you're an handsome and nice guy who likes me, here is your chance. If you don't hurry, dear future boyfriend, you might miss out on your decade of missed opportunities...
However, if you're in a couple, stop talking about your special someone and try to remember that other people still matter when you're not single. We get it, okay? Message received. You're not single like us. Get over yourself! It doesn't make you any better than us, the single folks! Anyway, I hope you're all having a good week even if you're not single.
What about you, what are you thoughts on love and relationships? Do you have a special someone in your life?
Thanks for reading and I'll see you on Friday ♥
