old v new

So I have been thinking lately about how much I have changed in the last 5 years...and most of it is not for the better. Or maybe I am a better person because of how much I have changed since I realize this but instead just miss my old, ignorant self. Or maybe I just have a total different outlook on how my life is going right now and wish I could still see it in the same way as I did, 5 years ago. I'm not entirely sure, but I will go on anyway.


I feel as though 5 years ago I was a much happier, friendlier person. I had 4 best friends who I was sure I would stay friends with for the rest of my life (I was clearly wrong), I had a big group of friends who I hung out with outside and inside school (they were not my friends, just my friends friends), very artistically inspired (I no longer draw out of sheer lack of inspiration), I was in much better shape (now I just sit around my house watching tv since I have nothing else to do).

I could probably go on for days about this but the 2 main things that bother me so much right now are the facts that I can count the number of friends I have on one hand, and that wouldn't bother me so much if the quality of these friendships wasn't such crap. The 2nd thing is that I am so uninspired to create anything artistically, lately.

I honestly have tried to rectify my situation but simply cannot get it right.
I have really tried making friends but they never seem to last past a few months. After the first few months of new friendship it seems as though things get too busy and I don't hear from them again, and even if I do, chances are we are drinking. I have realized that people love to be with me when I'm drunk but that changes when we sober up.
And the art thing...I have tried drawing, just creating with my hands but my mind is just blank every time. I can see shapes of things forming but they float away before they become solid.

I don't know.............

This was such an emo post but I just needed to get this out while I was sober...I have talked about this while drunk but it is kind of hard to take someone seriously when you both are smashed.

Studs and Leopard

My little sister goes through her clothes every once in a while and knows that I love transforming my clothes so when she does this she frequently gives me clothes she doesn't want anymore.
Well a little while ago she gave me a pair of shorts that she no longer likes. So I decided to transform them into something that fits my style.

I turned these shorts into:


I think the latter are much better.

Fancy Furniture

So, tonight I decided to check out the furniture on Etsy. And really check it out. I went through so many pages and pages of amazing furniture. I decided to share some of my amazing finds on the site.

They have an assortment of guitar chairs, this is just one of the amazing set.

(iriejason)
I love chairs that are just plainly made of wood.

(helvete)
Definitely one of the coolest chairs ever.

( wright@home vintage)
Wouldn't you just love to have that amazing set in your living room? I know I would.

(dinwiddies) A hairy chair, looks kinda gross but I got to admit, that is pretty cool.

(Royalkane)
Those are freakin' stools that look like mushrooms! 'Nuff said.

So today I was watching Gene Simmons Family Jewels (Oh man I love me some Nick Simmons, but that's a different story), and Sophie wanted a tattoo and Gene said something to her and it was along the lines of, "you don't want to be one of those 40 or 50 year olds covered in tattoos." Well I hate when people say this. What is so wrong with getting tattoos and then being old and having them on your body?

First of all, if you are getting a tattoo you have to understand this is a commitment to yourself and your body.

Secondly, if you are getting a tattoo it should be something that holds a certain amount of significance to you. Whether that means a memorial tattoo, some sort of joke tattoo that you will always love having on your body or even just a cartoon that is meaningful to YOU. You are getting this tattoo for YOURSELF not for someone else, and if you are getting it for someone else then maybe you shouldn't be getting a tattoo.

Thirdly, oh man when you are that old who the hell is going to be looking at your body? You ever see the normal middle aged person? They don't walk around in short shorts, mini skirts or halter tops, at least I hope they don't.

I don't have any tattoos as of yet, because well...I just haven't had the money for it. But when I do and when I grow old I will be so proud and happy about my tattoos.

DIY Bleach Black

So for a really long time I have been wanting to DIY my own bleached shirt/sweater. The other day I finally remembered to pick up a little spray bottle from Dollarama so I got to finally do it today! I am really happy with how it turned out! Looks a whole lot better than I thought it might.

I also cut the neckline into a V-Neck. I love how it looks all red and like flames.

Here is an action shot, I just blurred out my face, not a good face day for me today.

Lose the halo Don't need to resist

So the other day as I was reading through blogs I came across this great site of photography, thanks to rats to riches, it is called 100 Abandoned Houses.
The houses featured in all pictures just have a great lonely feeling in them. Not to mention I really do love the occasional broken roof and boarded window.
These are just a few of my favorites.
