DONALD DUCK AND I, SINCE EVER

Since when I was a child, when I used to read Mickey Mouse, I always identified myself in Donald Duck. I’ve never suffered Mickey Mouse, always so perfect and smartass, while Donal Duck is like me: unlucky and lazy, obviously in good meaning (if this words can have a good meaning). Because, since when I was a baby,I am always be like that, in the end I do what I have to do, but always with much effort, because my nature is to be lazy, so lazy. I know that when I go out I’ll have fun and it will be worthwhile, but the idea of staying in my bed wearing my pajamas eating chips it’s so strong. And when I found a bit of time for doing nothing there is always someone (Save or my mum) that force me to do something reclutantly, like poor Donald Duck, tyrannize by Scrooge McDuck that always force him working for paying his debts, or by Daisy Duck that always ask him move furnitures (why that girl/duck has always to change the position of the furniture?). Another Donal Duck bad luck is to always have his cousin Gladstone Gander, the perfect lucky braggart, that always go in the proper way to him, and even makes waves about it. I can’t tell you how many Gladstone Gander I know, that I try to avoid and I always meet. Small bad luck, like his ones, happen to me. The only difference it’s that I don’t slip on a banana, but I fell from heels, and instead of a vase on my head, I always snag my tights while I am wearing it, I put my phone in the bag with keys, if I have an opportunity in the majority of cases go bad. I have one last thing in common with Donald Duck: I am like him, I never give up. I get mad and I do lots of noise, but after a bit everything it’s ok again and I carry on my way, not caring about what happened. I always admired him persistence and wish to have fun. Because in the life all we are a bit Donald Duck, but if we don’t surrender and we stay focused on good things around us, in the end we can see everything in a different way.

HALLOWEEN COSTUME FOR A SCARY NIGHT

Saturday and Sunday have been such a long days for me. I started a new project for the blog and I did few things after weeks that I was postponing them. This situation made me realize that I have some kind of bipolarity. Not really, obviously, but I think that if you meet me once when I am tired and once when I am not you’ll have two different Melissa in front of you. Being tired kill all my enthusiasm and vitality. I can’t make up/wear something nice/go out/talk/hairdo/eat in a normal way. Just a scary entity in large joggers is there, with crazy hairstyle, cave-dweller nails, face like a ghost that drag himself around the house looking for food and bed or sofa in which rest. When I come home late at night my home is vastly transformed in a camp, clothes stacked on the chair in my room, that if she could talk..(I won’t hear her by the way because it’s always buried) and accessories everywhere, that I go into the bathroom swearing against my idea of putting make up on in the morning, I remove it (in a bad way, I know that it’s terrible for my skin), I take out my dog (I love him, but I hate that he always has to pee, and that I realize my dream: eat any kind of junk food lying on my sofa, loving that moment. When I am tired diet/care of my skin (at least removing make up properly!)/of my nails and being in order don’t exist. I simply don’t care, I just wanna enjoy my rest. But, obviously, when I am tired all sorts of thing happen. Save calls me for an important work, my mum need that I take her dog to the vet, in the block there is a blackout for some kind of maintenance work (it happened!), the cat is sick and puke on that famous pile of clothes on the chair. And you watch it, shocked, thinking that tomorrow, when you’ll be fresh and it won’t looks like a tragedy.

PS: In the pics I show you the look for the Halloween party organized by a dear friend. I wore a dress, looks and location to be scary! You have to shudder now, witches are back!
