Jinx!

That's what they say when two people say the same thing at the same time and then they can make a wish. These two girls are looking for summer plans, can you guess what they are? Solve the riddles and make your wishes!



THAT WHAT PANDEMIS COULDN'T DO, IT WON'T DO THIS AUGUST: OBJECTIVE AUGUST

THE OTHER DAY


talking to Marta, she was telling me that August is a difficult month on her horizon:


"I don't know what I'm going to do. Before (2020 - 2021) I was consoled by the fact that nothing could be done. This year I think everyone has plans for the summer except me. I'm going to have a really hard time this summer at home without going anywhere."



"Your opinion is not my reality."

ANXIETY, THAT OLD FRIEND


Dear Marta, UNDERSTAND WHAT A SUMMER IS:

as we already talked about, there is a way - or several ways - to see this summer as a good summer and, even, one of the best. This Living For Breakfast is dedicated to you and all the people (myself included) to whom Instagram's photogenic summer doesn't visit us in 2022. Calm down, breathe, remember that every plan is wonderful if it makes you happy. Let's see why with the IT'S NOT LIST :



. IT'S NOT YOU, IT'S INSTAGRAM.


. DON'T MAKE "PEOPLE" PLANS, CREATE THEM FROM YOUR PERSONALITY.


. IT'S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD (ALTHOUGH IT SEEMS LIKE IT).


. DON'T SET SUMMER RESOLUTIONS, FLOW WITH YOURSELF.


. IT'S NOT FOREVER, IT'S JUST ONE SUMMER OF MANY.


. IT'S NOT SO BAD ON YOUR OWN.


. DON'T SAY NO TO THINGS YOU HAVEN'T DONE SO FAR, DARE.



"I COULD NEVER IN A HUNDRED SUMMERS GET TIRED OF THIS."

NO ENVY


Don't demonize people who go on trips to thousand-star hotels on wonderful beaches, obviously they make us envious. But let's not compare or idealize. We each have our summer reality and our possibilities and they are all good. Let's not compete. Be happy for them and be happy for you and your personal plans.

THE HEALTHY LIST OF BOOKS YOU WON'T READ


On blogs like this one you often find lists of books to read in the summer. Since I'm not sure we have a healthy relationship with lists, here's a summer reading proposal that will surprise you a lot:


. Read something you really like, whatever it is. Forget about intellectual objectives and other people's comments.


. Finish a book you started, but only if you feel like it, if not, don't. .


. Don't force yourself to finish a book. If destiny wants, you'll finish it. If not, you will gain time from your life.


. Don't read books this Summer if you don't feel like it.


. But if you can, read. It is always good :)




USE THESE PHRASES AS YOUR OWN

Your quotes this summer, all based on real people and facts:


. If it's an offer it's not fattening.


. If it's free it's good .


. Quit your job, get out of the gym, stop following people on Instagram, be free.


. - I haven't been to the gym for months, today I'm back. -What did you do? - I’ve left it.


. I haven't seen less normal people like the people who say they're normal .


. I'm fabulous, it's impossible for anyone to dislike me, even myself.


. This summer your friends are your lifebuoy.


. Meanwhile some people are talking to me I develop better conversations in my head.

. You don't have to feel like a loser, you're the bold knight fighting fighting to defend your honor in the “War of troubles”.


. There's nothing in this world that can't be fixed with ice and lemon.


. If I could I would, but even if I could I wouldn't want to.


. - Don't you know me? - (In my head: I open the mental catalog of people: no, no, no, no, no... I don't know who you are) - Yes, of course! How are you?
