Brief synopsis:
I don't take life very seriously. I enjoy it, I try to have as much fun and crazy adventure as possible, I treat people with love and respect.
I used to be social phobic but then I became one of those people who everybody will approach and had to get over it!
I have a very short attention span unless I'm doing something interactive, so I don't read many books or watch many movies, and I definitely do not watch TV.
I like to draw, do jigsaw puzzles, exercise, write, listen to music, play videogames, interact with humans, give legendary massages, surf the web learning about stuff, organise and tidy, and drink beer.
Noun love:
bright, colourful tattoos
synaesthesia
Raleigh chopper
gender fuck
music
big headphones, mirrored sunnies, maybe a hoodie
clove cigarettes
beautiful humans
and I really love dogs.
"Certain people you just can't trust, you know Luke?
Never trust anyone who doesn't smoke pot or listen to Dylan.
Never trust anyone who doesn't like the beach.
Never, EVER, EVER trust anyone who says they don't like dogs!
You meet someone who doesn't like dogs you alert the authorities IMMEDIATELY and you sure as SHIT don't MARRY THEM!"
2009/11/17 00:33 This has been the most tumultuous year. It's actually bordering on ridiculous.
Actually it IS ridiculous.
So now life has turned around on me again and I don't know what I'm going to be doing further than next fortnight... I could do anything really.
What I should sensibly do is get a job in this country somewhere, pay off my debt, then save up enough to move somewhere else. Or save up to travel, if I feel like I can stand being in this country for that long.
I had a run-in with a ceramic egg the other night and had to wait in hospital for nearly 4 hours simply in order to get 5 stitches.
Makes a sweet photo-op if nothing else!
Identical unrecognition and ensuing joy
2009/10/08 09:04 Went into Southern Ink the other day to check in, haven't been in for ages! My beautiful tatto artist Kerry Parkin moved to Australia a year and a bit ago leaving his equally beautiful identical twin Matt here, and I called in to see him, not expecting Kerry to be there! I asked for Matt and was nodded back by his beautiful wife Jak (what's with the beautiful people??) and went back, started yakking to "Matt"... And only when I asked "him" where his darling brother [Kerry] was and he said "he's right behind you actually" I realised I had been talking to Kerry all along!!! Ha. I was pretty embarrassed, because they both are very different of course, different tattoos, different auras, different eye-wear, and I should really have recognised Kerry :p But I just totally wasn't expecting to see him!
That pretty much made my day, week and month! So yay, my tattoo artist is back in town for good, which means I'll be able to justify not paying off my credit card and getting some sweet ink instead.
I only have a couple of plans at this stage, a lower-stomach piece of tomyum soup (which I pretty much lived off in SE Asia when I was backpacking there last year) and I'll get my forearm tats finished with some solid black and solid white ink... Then... Who knows?
Yay tattoos!
Future and now
2009/09/21 15:56 Trés lame.
I've been having a munted year this year, it seems that everything that can go roughly has done. Both of my pets decided to get terminally ill and get put down, within a couple of months of each other. My dog dying broke my heart, he was my best friend and soul mate!!! Fuck you for dying young, Harley!!! I dunno, everything else. Work has been a bitch, my head's been a bitch, love's been a bitch, money's been a bitch, this town has been a bitch, government organisations have been a bitch, politics have been a bitch.
I feel incredibly lost this year, and I got pretty down about it too, back on meds and seeing an incredibly amateur and shit counsellor, one who is incapable of coming up with anything novel and instead is constantly asking questions. You know. The type that says "and how does that make you feel?" after everything. Fuck, I've been in the mental health sector for all of my adolescence, if I want to fucking come up with my own solutions for banal issues I can do it myself without some fucking inconvenient appointment. I want someone who is actually able to give me some good objective advice!!!
Ahh sorry, small rant. Anywho, I finally realised that I don't have to kill myself to get out of this shitty life, why do I need to do that? I can just start a new one. Easy.
Now I'm thinking positively. Gotta get a job and save up some serious money, here or somewhere else in NZ... Dunedin... Auckland... And fucking LEAVE! Take my British passport and associated citizenship and disappear. Without a word, without a trace.
Start new.
So I want to leave, and I feel good about this.
Tattoooooooooos!
2009/08/17 14:15 I am really craving getting a big tattoo but I feel really stuck for inspiration lately. I just want colours and patterns and swirls. I want something really cool.
Suggestions/creations are more than welcome.
