I’m not sure of the last time I updated on this goal. I now have 4 tattoos. I have the big butterfly on my lower back (has a lot going on, but I designed it and it has a lot of meaning) that I must have mentioned. On my right ankle I have the Billy Joel lyrics “I’d rather laugh with the Sinners than cry with the Saints” and the Japanese symbol for music under it. On my left hip I have a moon with a bunch of stars and stuff going on (was my first one) and on my left wrist I have a couple of hearts and curly cues. That one has a lot of meaning as well, as simple as it sounds. But hey, those are the best kind.
I’ve been wanting to get a sparrow on my other hip. Been thinking bout it for quite a while. Well, my mom decided she wanted a tattoo as a Mother’s Day/birthday present from my brother and I. So I took her to get it done last week. She is THE LAST person you would expect to see get one. I won’t even go into it.
So, I took her to Starlight Tattoo in Pequannock. We went to their website and they have pictures and profiles of all the artists. We checked them out. We got there and the artist available was perfect for my mom. He was in his late 40’s (she’s in her early 50’s), has a few tattoos but is not covered, didn’t have piercings, etc. He was chill and they ended up talking about “Diners, Drive-ins and Dives”. So, yea. But…then there was the other artist. Hot. When we went back after the consultation to get it done, he wasn’t busy so I went and talked to him and made my appointment with him. Yay :D So now, as he put it I’ll be “evening out”. Woot!

So I finished my sophomore year!!! I’m going to be starting my clinicals this fall and I’m so excited!!! I’m halfway to getting my RN and BSN! I can’t believe it’s already been two years.
I loved this past semester, especially pathophysiology. It was the hardest class ever, but also the most interesting. And, I was lucky to have an amazing professor, so it all worked out. I got an A-!!! Next semester I’m taking Adult 1, gero, pharm and legal aspects. Just have to get through microbiology which I’m taking in June.
More updates to come! I hope everyone is doing well!!!
So, I got a nice new 8 megapixel camera for Christmas (I used to have a 4, and it was kinda bulky). I love it and there’s a nice compartment in my pocketbook for it so I always have it on me. I think this will DEFINITELY help me reach this goal! :D
