Plans, plans. 2 months ago

My dad will get me one of those nifty books to study for my theoretical exam, then I’ll go to my parents’ place during my Fall and Christmas breaks to actually drive and get some lessons. I hope I’ll be able to actually take my practical exam sometime in February then.

We’ll see.. >.<



Get a tattoo (read all 3 entries…)
2nd Tattoo 4 months ago

I told myself I’d work hard in school, instead of working five days a week and treating oing school as something ‘on the side’. I promised myself I’d get a new tattoo if I passed all the 1st year’s subjects.

I ended up failing one class (I still have tests coming up, but I’ve failed one of the previous ones). But I really wanted to get that new tattoo, so I changed it into some form of compensation for the pain and trouble I went through when I got my wisdom teeth pulled. drowns in selfpity

I want to get a little mermaid, Ariel. I’ve loved her ever since I was a kid. I love her individuality. I love the fact that she’s not afraid to dream, not afraid to look outside of the box, not afraid to go her own way to pursue what she wants and what she believes in. I know she’s just a silly Disney character, but I’ve loved the Little Mermaid ever since I was 2 or 3 years old and even though a lot of people are making fun of me for wanting this tattoo, I think I’m really going to go through with it. I’ve had the idea in my head for over half a year now, so I can honestly say it’s not just a phase either.

I wasn’t sure where I wanted it, but I think I’ll get it on the left side of my back somewhere, to have her tail coming up across my ribs or something. I’m just really scared the artist will screw up her face or something. I’ve seen so many really ugly Ariel attoos online. >.>



stop obsessing over imperfection
Paradox. 4 months ago

It’s strange how I still really want to lose weight, get fit, get in shape, fix the way I look, fix my horrible habit of always procrastinating, etc.

... yet I do want to stop obsessing over all of these days. I guess in a way I just want to look a little bit better, feel a little bit better. I don’t have to be perfect, I know I won’t reach perfection (in any sense of the word) anyway and I think I’ll know when to accept the way I am.
