Challenge: Get a tattoo
I didn't really get a tattoo, I did a henna tattoo that washed off after about two months. I love the idea of doing something that is more than slightly shocking or taboo in my little circle of family and friends. I feel that sometimes people see me in a certain light, or in a certain box, and it's good to break out every once in a while. However, seeing as how I get rashes and hives when I get ink on my skin, I was not comfortable with the idea of injecting ink into my skin. So, I went with henna. I chose a semi-colon with a heart because I've struggled with suicidal thoughts, and lost friends to suicide. I love the idea that no matter how bad things seem in the moment, I can choose to continue my story after the semi-colon.
