Tattoos For Older People
Tattoos have always been a controversial topic, and they still are. For many, tattooed symbols have a negative connotation that can raise an eyebrow. Other people view them as a form of art that is worn proudly while others feel tattoos destroy a God-given, natural body. What is your opinion?

This Brazen Temple
My body is the temple of which my creator gave me. No one is perfect, but we all have dreams of being so right? Some of us accept the imperfections we have, and others of us simply put dream of the day we can afford making ourselves better and perfect. Self love and self-acceptance is important like confidence. Having a healthy state of mind for our self-image is necessary. Everyones body is beautiful and no one can be replaced. Especially since with the different kinds of technology beauty aestheticians use , cosmetic surgeons, and things they have these days for the sake of improving or skin and the improvement of our face and bodies.

Another Girl with a Dragon Tattoo
It was 2019 when I was at my all-time low. I just got back home to Manila, Philippines after spending a whole year in Los Angeles, California. My girlfriend of four years and I broke up (and it was an ugly break up as well). My mom and I had a ridiculously huge fight about my sexuality, it tore our relationship like the ice caps in the Arctic, melting and can never be restored again. I was immensely depressed. The only time I would eat is whenever I was with my best friend (whom I owe a lot to, if it were not for here I would have lost my sh*t). My body was fueled by nothing but coffee, cigarettes, and alcohol. My nights were spent in a random stranger’s bed. My days were spent thinking about death. The only night I was in my own bedroom, I had a noose around my neck. My brother who I sparsely talk to, ringed me out of the blue right as I was about to kick the bucket as if he knew everything that was going on. A wake-up call (quite literally) that I needed so badly. I told myself right there and then, I will slowly pick myself up instead of withering into the dark abyss.

Metamorphosis:
I figured there was no better way to start this than with the first line I wrote in my journal in 2016 entitled “Metamorphosis” - because I always knew walking through this rite of passage would need a memoir.

Eventful 2020.
Eventful 2020: To close up my Body Art Series with Part Three lets reflect on the 3rd day of the Super Eventful year 2020 has become, I stumbled upon an inviting atmosphere. That seemed peculiar yet it definitely belonged in my late night stroll to the Museum of Modern Art for their UNIQLO Free Friday Nights. As my bestie and I strolled around Nolita we jumped to cute boutiques to different little storefronts the entire way to our impromptu Manhattan adventures. It led me to making an impulsive decision yet I’m still satisfied that I over came opposition in disfiguring myself.

Pretty Reflection.
Courtesy of Auntie Mae. Pretty Reflection. For Part One of my Body Art series, I’d like to express an inner demon I’ve dealt with since as young as I can remember. One of my earliest memories is when I was growing up in Chicago I was the kid that constantly gravitated to girly ideas of fun and glamour. It didn’t help that my fraternal twin brother had his action-packed thrills to share with our older brother. They both were obsessed with break dancing, Michael Jackson and superhero’s, not to mention the gang related movies our uncles had us watch as they babysat us. For myself, I wanted to always watch Thumbelina, Care Bears and of course Disney princesses were frequently on my mind.

Unblossomed Rose
Makeup can be a powerful tool... One has the free will to express themselves, to be bold, to be confident, be unique, and stand out too extraordinary heights. But some tend to forget the true “Power of Makeup”. Take the Unblossomed Rose for example.

Body Art
Body art is an incredibly and increasingly popular form of self-expression. Whilst also widely obtained as a means of commemorating a certain event or time in someone's life, body art can also mean nothing as much as it can mean something.

Being a blank canvas
Tattoos are getting more and more elaborate and amazing. Artists are making great strives to push the envelope when it comes to tattoos. It only makes sense for tons of people to want to get tattoos. Interestingly enough it wasn't too long ago when tattoos were frowned upon. Tattoos are still frowned upon in most countries outside of western society. Not all of them or course. In fact western society has even appropriated some tattoos from other cultures.

How To Get A Tattoo In Rome
While Rome has many tattoo artists and shops, not all of them are on par; some are just a waste of time and would not give you an efficient service. Since tattoos are somewhat permanent and can stick for a very long time, you don't need anyone to mess up your tattoo idea. Thus, if you want to get a tattoo in Rome, there are several factors you need to check before deciding to have your tattoo done in a shop. These factors would help you distinguish the great tattoo shops from risky ones.
