But Life Would Suck Without You Now…

For the record I am against smoking. If someone started smoking as an outlet for stress or whatever and then became addicted, it’s not okay, but I’d hold them in higher regard than someone who started smoking to fit in or be cool.

The last two photos I have posted have been dark and grubbier than the others and I think that’s because they reflect what kind of mood I’m in and what I like looking at at the time. These past 3 days I have really gotten into my year 12 art project. What I am doing is studying wall murals and their impact on society. This got me looking at all kinds of graffiti and grungy art. Tattoos, in my opinion, fit into that whole kind of art. Some are quite beautiful but the fact that they are on skin, in places where they really shouldn’t be just makes me cringe sometimes. I think the view I have will change over time, because the more pictures of people with tattoos I look at the more I like what I see.  I believe someday I will get a tattoo, I don’t know where or what of, but it’s going to be something I plan out well, I couldn’t have something on me that I might not want there in 10 or so years.

This brings me onto the next topic, body manipulation.. Without thinking about it everybody manipulates themselves either to look the best that they can, the way they want to look or to fit in with a group of people. I have never had the motivation to look perfect. I don’t think it’s necessary. Sure, I pluck my eyebrows, I’ve had my teeth fixed, I’ve dyed my hair permanently, I have a few piercings; but they are common things. I could never be anorexic, bulimic or whatever. Not because I think it’s unhealthy, but because I’m lazy. Hmmm, we’ll just see what happens.

Over and out.
