My Nose Piercing

Yesterday, I went by Lucky Draw Tattoos to get my nose pierced. My best friend, Justean, took video of the entire process. I trimmed the video down by a few minutes, because there was a lot of excess. When the video starts, my nose is being marked for the third and final time.

My favorite part of the video is when Ashley (Piercer) says,"Here's a napkin just in case you bleed out." It's not often you get to hear that lovely phrase.

    I'm getting mine done on my birthday! :D Along with re-piercing my ears. I had to take them out YEARS ago when they got infected but I never seem to have the time to get them redone >.<

      I bet you're looking forward to it. I was really glad to finally get my nose done. The swelling's gone down and I cleaned the blood off, so it looks much better today than yesterday.

    You did better than I did! Low pain tolerance = almost passed out.

    Hahaha! Your whole ordeal went a lot quicker than mine did! Lucky :P

Let's talk Goth, Consumerism and #zerowaste

Disclaimer:   I do not claim to be an expert on low waste (or "zero waste") living —far from it . The purpose of this piece is to explore what it means to belong to the Goth subculture in the context of consumerism and making sustainable choices. There are many ways to live sustainably, but this piece will focus on reducing waste. This piece does not seek to shame or blame anyone but rather to challenge throw-away attitudes that dominate our world—and the modern Goth subculture—by offering another perspective. Respectful discussion in the comment section is welcomed.  W hen I hear the words "zero waste," I often think of people making videos to show off three months of trash fitting inside a little mason jar, their magical Whole Foods shopping trip, or even a tour of their impossibly-tiny capsule wardrobe. Search #zerowaste on Pinterest and you'll come up with pictures of tidy little beige pantries with uniform mason jars filled with chia seeds, nutri...

Depeche Mode Concert

Last night, Depeche Mode came to town. After a long week and much time spent looking forward to this, I'm glad to say I was in attendance. Justean and I ventured off to the venue with little incident this time (meaning not getting horribly lost like before). When we arrived, we noticed what a broad spectrum of fans Depeche Mode reached. There were a lot of drunken middle aged people, but besides that, there was a range of alternative types as well as more mainstream looking people. One thing is for sure that most everyone seemed excited to be there. In fact, at one point, I almost got in an altercation with a couple who was so excited, they decided to squeeze right in front of me and cut me off! Let's just say I got them to vacate my vicinity.  It was a great night for a concert. The moon shone brightly, and looming rain clouds dissipated. As for the show itself, Depeche Mode knows how to work a crowd. They sound mostly the same in concert as on their albums. They eve...
