So I cheated // Tattoos and Things
Eh.So like many things in my life that go unfinished or half-done, I, of course, logged back into my Facebook. And while I fell short to my weaknesses, I did make a point to myself that I need to keep my technology time at a minimum. Put my phone down and take a walk in the rain. Close my laptop and play with my dogs or ACTUALLY do Insanity like I keep saying I will...While I feel like it just isn't an option to fully unplug from our technologies, I think everyone needs to realize we can function without it attached to our palms or faces. After all, I am one of those people that really truly does use Facebook to keep connected to people from home, because I am on the other side of the state; and while I was on my hiatus, I missed out on some very heartbreaking news stories that I wish I had heard about sooner.But I have controlled my need to refresh my feeds constantly, and actually have been able to put the phone down, shut my laptop and enjoy the sunshine. I'm hoping my ability to unplug remains constant as school starts in a few weeks and I can focus on my studies and less on what my "friends" "like."Anywho.Does liking One Direction songs make me a horrible person? That's a weird question. But I'm serious! I really do like their songs, and I would probably enjoy going to a concert. And I have ZERO shame being the only not crazy screaming girl there.One Direction isn't the only band I've struck an interest in lately. As an avid listener of iheartradio (even when it was still in beta, oh yeah, i'm a hipster.) I stumbled upon a station that basically sums up my middle school - high school years and it's such a flashback of memories and angsty teen drama.--Why did WP underline angsty with the red squiggle? Angsty is a word!--I also have been super obsessing about tattoos lately. And it's more than oh, that's a cute tattoo. It's like OHEMGEE I HAVE TO HAVE THAT TATTOO ON MY BODY RIGHT NOW. it's definitely a problem. Especially since when I was first considering getting a tattoo, I had convinced myself I only wanted one, and that was enough. When I heard people say you can't just have one tattoo, I wanted to stand up and be like oh yeah, well I just have one, so suck it! And then it happened. I started getting the tattoo fever. I wanted another one, so I hopped on Pinterest and searched tattoos. (And in case you didn't know, Tattoos is already a tab you can search.) THAT WAS A MISTAKE. I have no idea how many hours I spent on Pinterest just scrolling down the page looking for cute, unique, beautiful tattoos, and what's even worse. I have pinned at least 10 tattoo ideas that I MUST have. All of a sudden I am out of tattoo real estate because I want to keep my tattoos able to be hidden in case by some miracle I actually get a big girl job. My life is hard.
