i’ve got two tattoos so far. it’s funny to say that, since when i got my first one i was sure it would be the one and only—just to say i’d done it. but i find they are a great way to commemorate a personal rite of passage…

i bungee jumped for my 19th birthday. over a pool at the canadian national expo. it din’t look that high up from the ground, but from up top it felt like much much more. i almost chickened out actually, but my aunt and uncle had footed the cost and i didn’t want to tell them i wasted their money… so i jumped. and it was incredible!
if you get the chance, just do it…!
I got hooked on survivor only about 6 months ago, but have become totally obsessed with it. i think it would be an incredible experience to have, not just because you could make some money, but because it would really drive you to see who you are. what you’re made of.
i have applied for the 18th season. i feel like a complete idiot loser though, because they apparently weren’t even interested in an initial interview. but august isn’t over yet….
