more & more pictures.


right after. last night.



today

my tattoo artist was some HILARIOUS ass cuban. we were being cubanaso the whole time. and it was fun. my chonga/cuban self came out and i loved it. i've decided to leave the sorority i had joined. it's really .. eh. i had a doubt. but now i'm doubting my doubt. but i can't because i already left it and YAAA. it's done with.

i like pirates. annnnyyywayyyss .. i'm doing anything to avoid writing this bloody 10 pg. paper on robert fisk's "the great war for civilisation." it's a great READ .. but it's odd to write about it. his style is very jump-around. how am i supposed to write a cohesive paper when he jumps from iran 1979 to iraq 1988 to afghanistan 1980 to iraq 2003 .. it's driving me insane.

only thing that made me happy was le tattoo!!!
and i SUPPOSE i should say what it means. lol

"In classical Greece, sophrosyne ("soh-froh-soo'-neh") referred to excellence of character and soundness of mind in a well-balanced individual. This complex ideal has no direct translation into English. It conveys the idea of happiness (in a proper philosophic sense) derived from:

temperance in desires

self awareness

modesty

relatedness to the whole of self and society

respect for excellence

respect for human nature, its limits, its balance

self-restrained freedom

obedience to the laws of harmony and proportion

love of truth-beauty-goodness

wisdom

the qualities giving rise to true charm and charisma"
