Rebelious rules by Kristina Gallo

This is YA supernatural horror story. Helena just wanted to live like an ordinary teenager. She was a victim of the wrong education system in ex Yugoslavia.  The trauma destroyed her youth but as compensation, she got the unexpected power. Just, her dreams turn into nightmares which became true. Nothing will be the same after unexpected events, things will go in an undesirable direction and she could not control it. My story is based on real events and you can find it on Amazon, an e-book, and a paperback edition. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07NRZBNVC/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_U_x_3RRzCb0CEVM20 From the preview: It was a curse for young people in Croatia. Even if you were only sixteen, you could find a way to get a beer. You could smoke and get laid. What was funny was you couldn’t stay late if your parents decided. So, your curfew was generally 12:00 a.m. This club would close at midnight, as the city did not issue licenses to work later, and your parents would take you ...

You need a shoulder for crying? You need an honest comment about how you look today? You want to share a secret without a fear that someone else will know? Tell it to your male buddy. I am not kidding. If you have or you had a male buddy, you are a lucky woman. Unless he feels more about you then you have a problem. Male-female friendship is possible and stronger than a friendship between two females. I will tell you differences which give an advantage to a man instead of a woman’s friend. Your male friend will never get jealous of you. You will not fight with him because you might like the same guy. You can talk to him about topics which women don’t like: football, cars, kickboxing. He will give you aim advice about other men. You can swear with him without getting his judgment. If he gets married and has kids, he will still pay attention to you because he is his friend. Unfortunately, a woman’s nature might be double-faced, evil, and competitive. Aft...

Do you know the statement “be happy with small things if you can’t get big things”? Someone who was not ambitious made this like comfort for all frustrations and unfilled wishes. The modest person will say that you need to be happy: Because you are alive. Because you have no health problems. Because you have a meal and a warm shelter. I agree with this because everyone starts with a basic thing, and we should appreciate what we have. Just appreciation doesn’t mean that you don’t have to go further. If that satisfaction with small things stop you from progress, this statement is wrong and your obstacle to success. If you live in your safe cage and never travel out of your city you are happy but you will always wonder: “What if?” Imagine that you changed your life, but this means a risk, step forward from your comfort zone, and maybe a danger? If you are not ambitious and aware of the risk, you will stay safe, but your full potential will be undefined. Once my f...

I know that many people wish to get success online. It doesn’t matter if you are a blogger, author, musician, or motivational speaker, you want to promote yourself, get noticed by many people, and sell your work. It fills the path to success with thorns. People might ignore you, mock you, laugh at you, but you hold ahead up and mind your business. I know many successful people were victims of bullies and abuse and they got used to the bad treatment. The point is, you wish that people get you serious. I am not famous, but I met many arrogant people who think they are celebrities and they wish that others crawl when they appear. Here I am talking about mistakes that arrogant people do when they promote themselves. I got the next message. “ Hello, I am an author and I need likes on my page. You might like my book and your friends should like it too. Maybe you purchase it.”  So, this is a manifestation of egoism and narcissism, without asking how he can help me, a...

Loyalty is an eternal value. If you say that you were loyal once, and this stopped, you were never loyal. A person can’t be half loyal. You might have a conflict with a friend, but you never turn him back because you disagreed. The childish person will go away after the first conflicts, like a kid who plays in the sand and throws his toys because he did not like a game. The mature person will yell and be silent, but the friendship will go on to the next level.  Are you strong to fight with me?  Are you strong to be with me even you don’t like my attitude?  If you are leaving because you did not like what I say, you are not a real friend. When your paths separate, don’t talk badly behind my back. I was good with you; I did my best score, but we lost our common interests. We grew up and we don’t understand each other anymore. Heads up and walk your way, I wish you happiness. Don’t wear a tail of disappointment, because we learned something from each othe...

If anyone asked me what is most important before a few years, I would have different answers than now. I did not appreciate my time and peace enough. I let in my life people who did not deserve it. After I cut it off, I realized how much clean space I have for others who deserve that spot. How can you know who is the right friend for you, and who is not? It sounds so simple, but it is not. You can’t know someone at first sight. Everyone tries to represent in the best light, hiding flaws like snakes are hiding legs. When you know the person better, some things swim out on the surface and the previous diamond loses its shine. That is why is not good to glorify people, they will screw you. How do you know that a person wastes your time and energy? A person who talks only about herself.  I was there, this happened to me, that guy adores me, etc. A person who talks with underestimation about your problems.  Oh, that is nothing. I survived worse than that. A p...

Your partner is your choice. He is your source of joy or sadness, problems, or enjoyment, whatever takes. Recently I read a story about conflict on the Instagram profile. Domagoj Vida, a famous Croatian football player, is married to Ivana, ex-Miss Universe of Croatia. She is very active on Instagram and a follower said to her that her husband is ugly and that she has a good stomach because she is his wife. She replied harshly and searched for the address of the mean follower, which was a woman. People are mean. Also, people got jealous and envious when someone got rich or became famous. They are asking for flaws and imperfections because when a person is the center of attention; we focus all eyes on him or her. I would say differently if I were in Ivana's place. I would say that I adore my husband and that he would not touch that mean girl even with a stick from the far. People who are asking for imperfections on other's partners have serious problems. If s...
