03/27/08--19:11: Happiness? What Bullshit! (chan 2059335)




Why does Life have such a fucked up sense of humor??
People are never really happy. Always striving for more, working towards some imaginary goal that is next to impossible to reach. And why do people, more commonly girls, feel the NEED to be in love, to have a man make them happy. And when they do have them, why do we always find some rediculous way to fuck things up? Usually by trying to reach perfection within that relationship, striving for true happiness. And god forbid our friends are happy when we are (in the boy department anyways) thats impossible. When we are happy, they simply can't be. And when we are miserable, they always seem


03/28/08--08:50: The Idealist (chan 2059335)




My results from the Myers-Briggs Personality Test
INFP (Introverted, iNtuitive, Feeling, Perceiving)

As an INFP, your primary mode of living is focused internally, where you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit into your personal value system. Your secondary mode is external, where you take things in primarily via your intuition.

INFPs, more than other iNtuitive Feeling types, are focused on making the world a better place for people. Their primary goal is to find out their meaning in life. What is their purpose? How can they best serve humanity in their lives? They are idealists and perfectionists, w


01/12/09--19:03: Finding Myself (chan 2059335)




I haven't updated my journal in FOREVER, but I'm feeling a little like venting. Mostly about how confused I am about life.

I am feeling kind of lost.I've been given certain gifts and then thrown into the world to figure out how to use them and achieve the ultimate prize of happiness.
I have no idea what I want to do anymore.
College is definatly not for me, but what is? I want to be able to be creative in the work setting or (if thats just not possible) help people in some way.
Psychology turned out to be a load of depressing bullshit. And I am NOT going to devote my life to telling people whats wrong with them. Because maybe there is


01/14/09--20:27: When The Words in a Book, Mirror your Heart. (chan 2059335)




I decided to pick up a book that I fell madly in love with last year, and read it again. Just because it changed my view of the world for a moment while my nose was nuzzled into it's pages. The book is Eleven Minutes by Paulo Coelho.

Tonight I ran into one of those miraculous moments when someone elses words, whether it be in a song, a quote, or a story, capture exactly what you feel but can't say.

"Passion makes a person stop eating, sleeping, working, feeling at peace. A lot of people are frightened because, when it appears, it demolishes all the old things it finds in its path.
No one wants their life thrown into chaos. That is wh


06/24/09--22:12: Sha-la-la-la-la-la, live for today (chan 2059335)




Not totally sure I have anything of real importance to say here, but I was tired of looking at an older journal full of my whining about how I dont know what I want to do with my life.
I'm very content as of right now. Being out of school has given me the opportunity to reflect, learn a little bit more about myself, and kind of wrap my head around what it's like in the real world... pretty scary actually.
I think I have decided to go to art school eventually. I'm currently trying to build a stronger portfolio so maybe if I do get into a good school, I can get some scholarships or something because its EXPENSIVE!!!

So yeah... overall l


07/31/09--22:01: Fo' Sale! (chan 2059335)




So my bedroom is starting to become obnoxiously cluttered, and my wallet gets lighter and lighter everyday. So I'm selling some of my artwork. I'm keeping it pretty damn cheap, mostly because it's all pretty amature. Most of the paintings are for sale, except the portraits of my family, since those were gifts. If you interested let me know and I'll tell you whats available. =)


10/01/09--20:03: Custom design! (chan 2059335)




I am sooo freaking happy right now! I randomly stumbed upon this website last night, of an artist in California who does henna tattoos. Shes rediculously talented. So I was browsing through her gallery and found this image of a peacock that made my jaw drop. Literally. I am obsessive about tattoos, been looking through images for what seems like my whole life, and I have billions of ideas floating through my head, but I have always been attracted to peacocks. So after falling in love with this photo of a henna tattoo, I decided to e-mail her directly and ask if she would ever consider designing a perminant tattoo and if so, if she would desig
