This is my left fore arm. I got this work about 3 months ago. My ex boyfriend and I designed it. I took my favorite pieces by Gabriela, the artist who did the work for the Greatest hits/family tree album artwork. We manipulated them to fit my arm. The piece was designed four years ago, when I was 14, and I have just gotten it and love it with all my heart. The bottom picture is the photoshop image, however, i had to leave some details out because it was too difficult. I am adding more to my arm soon, like the double heart from the Medulla album, and lots of jelly fish. YUM!
i apologize for being so lazy and never updating. Yesterday I went to the beach with my mom, devin, and matt. We went to some thrift stores and got some neat stuff. Except for this one very stupid hypocritical one. Its a charity, and if the tag comes off hey wont sell the item. Well matt found the most perfect mexican poncho sweatshirt thing for only like 3 bucks. BUt as we were walking around it came off. And we found another one just like it, but too big and ugly, and asked if we could get it and even pay more. But they grabbed it away from us and said "NO WE CANT, IT WILL BE BACK ON THE RACKS TOMORROW!!!" We begged and pleaded saying that we dont live here, and that we would even pay like 10 dollars. But their minds were sadly made up. I was very proud of my mother though. SHe started to yell (kinda) at them saying how if this is for a charity it should matter and they should sell it because its for a good cause. But no.
Anyways, we did end up finding i white one for me, and light blue and dark blue for matt, and another black and white one identical to the first that we couldnt get, but with the words no fear on the front and back. So he said he'll put a patch on it. HE seemed to have a good time. But it wasnt all fun.
On the way home on the grapevine there was an accident. There was a van towing another van on some sort of trailor. Matt was sleeping on my lap and i was dozing off, when i heard devin say something like "look!" and we looked. The trailor started swerving and the van started to swerve too. THen the trailor started to create all these sparks and going into our lane and the other lanes, and we started to slow down. Finally it was going crazy making all these weird noises and did two 360* turns and then just stopped blocking two lanes. The guy driving jumped out of the car. I called 911 and hopefull SAVED THE DAY!!! :D not really. BUt the reason it was scary was because when i first looked up, i thought it was one of those diesle trucks twoing gasoline. (you know the realy shiny silver ones) And just like in every movie with a hiway accident theres always a trucker that goes off the side of the road and blows up. So when it went off the side of the road i freaked out, until i noticed it was a van. phew. Accidents are scary even if no one got hurt. (boy, i hope no one did) sigh.

well, that means i probably wont be updating for days at a time because my bubbi's computer is dial up and takes years to load everything. But i shall try.
Am I the only one who absolutely hates how every blond is trying to steer away from the blond by dying their hair some shade of brown or black? lets see
britney, christina, paris sister person, ashley, and i dont know!!!? What is with this insanity.......so they not see that they look horrible??
I guess i just thought i would vent.... now thats mad/rad hair!!!!
Being sick is not fun. When I came home on friday night, well actually on the way home, i started to feel sick. Right when we pulled in the garage it just came over me, and i went in the bathroom and puked. It was horrible. If theres one thing I hate, its throwing up. Id rather eat a hamburger! ok, well maybe not, i would probably have to think about that one, cause eating a burger might make me throw up, and then where did i get myself???? Well other than that........Matt came over today. I feel so bad, cause he sat at the bus stop downtown for like an hour and then found out the bus doesnt run on sundays. Or something weird like that. So we went and picked him up because we are nice like that! X] We also saw collatoral, which was good. Not spectacular, but good. Well, isnt that just fantastic?!?!?!? Yep.....it sure is.
Im a very upset. I havent talked to matt in like, a day and a half. But it feels like an eternity! My mom thinks im withering away into nothing but skin and bones. Matt and tyler are (kinda) arguing through livejournal. My throat feels scratchy, as if i sreamed for hours and hours. Im tired, and can barely sleep lately, and if i do, i have been having horrible dreams. At least the last 3 nights. I feel guilty for not always shuving food in my face, but i dont know how much more i can take. Im always full! And it sux to always walk and around and feel like you want to just fall asleep because you are sick to your stomach. I bet my stomach is like the size of an egg. Too bad i couldnt get it x-rayed or something. I wonder how i could stretch it out, and just gain weight! I drink a protein shake that is, at least, 2,000 calories, everyday. Plus i eat at least three meals. I do absolutely no working out, just sit on my ass and watch tv, or sew, or something to that effect, and what ends up happening is I lose weight. I dont know what to do. i want to pull my hair out. i mean, when was the last time you heard someone getting so stressed out about gaining weight? Like my brother says, we should all be so lucky. I just wish i could talk to matt, and see him. I miss him, and am so lonely. I want to see my friends. I want to do something with my life. I feel like its just passing by, day after day, and nothing is ever changing. Same thing, same routine. Grrrr. But on the bright side, when charlton was here, we made an amazing short film that was, amazing, and like 6 minutes. Hmmmmmm, im proud of it.
Boy this was long. Sorry. I gotta stop bitching.
and matt if you read this.........please call me! i want to see you today!!!!!!!!!! or if anyone is bored, call me! lauren
So i updated this ere livejournal. What do ya think? Pretty snazzy eh? Well, i couldnt do it by myself, thankfully, i had the help of my good friend Chris. (thanx buddy) So, i dont think anybody has, still, gone to my website, but luckily for you girls out there, i got like 50 more pairs of pants, and about 100 pieces of jewelry. (no jay/kaying in this one) And im also putting up some guys stuff, like ties, and shirts. I think thats good, cause it opens more doors. Right? Well, anyways, nothing has been going on. Except i relapsed on being sick again, and my throat got really really sore for about 3 days. But thanks to modern day medicine, im all better now. Yah, so i love anyone who reads this! Peace, bye much love, lauren
word to yo mutha
i want anything bjork.......
