I got a haircut. Well, more like a trim. The lady thinned out the back, though, and angled the front so it looks layered and ... stuff. Hopefully my bangs look less banglike now. :( I've grown them out to just past the tip of my nose, haha.
I've been thinking about tattoos and piercings. I think the most extreme I would go is a piercing in the cartilage of my right ear -- maybe one of those bar ones that are actually two piercings -- either a lip or eyebrow piercing, and tattoos on my right wrist, back, ankle, and maybe my abdomen. Not huge tattoos, just little ones. But I'm not sure yet. I'm almost certain about getting a tattoo on my right wrist that says 'No regrets' in kanji. And I'm definitely getting something in the cartilage of my right ear. I might look stupid with a facial piercing, so I'm very uncertain about that one. As to other tattoos... I have vague ideas, but nothing certain about placement or style, which is a major part of the hesitancy. These ideas include a salamander (I have a reason, yes) and something that says 'anti-perfection' or something similar. Maybe the stages of caterpillar-cocoon-butterfly, but I'm totally not sure about that one at all.
The salamander. I love little drawings of tree frogs and lizards and things; they're so adorable, I've always found them horribly cute. And then the salamander is just an ordinary animal, but it got drawn into mythology. Something about that appeals to me. And it's associated with fire, no less, when it's an amphibian so you'd think it ought to be associated with water. I know the story behind it -- the logs used for fire wood and whatnot. It kind of amazes me, and I like the idea of having a salamander on me.
'No regrets'. Everything is a lesson. I don't want to constantly look back and go, "What if I'd done this?" and "Fuck, I was such an idiot for doing that." Everything that happens to me makes me who I am. Plus, it's kind of an ironic thing for a tattoo to say when so many people wind up regretting their tattoos. It's kind of like... I can't regret it, because that would totally betray its meaning.
'Anti-perfection'. Because perfection is, well, dull. Mistakes give life color, there's no sweet without the sour, all of that. :)
Yeeeeaaahhh, that's it. I think. New myspace layout. Kairi... I don't mind her, and it was a pretty layout, the only KH one I found for myspace. Soooo, yeah. Maybe I'll fuck around with my LJ layout too.
