Full sleeve tattoo and hot pink hair. All of it. I've always wanted to do both, but it's just not a realistically good idea considering the dress code at my workplace. I wouldn't trade my career for hot pink hair and a sleeve tattoo, so putting in hot pink clip-in extensions on the weekends will have to suffice!

Have you seen the fake arm sleeves that look like sleeve tattoos? I'm seriously contemplating getting one or two - but haven't b/c I'm afraid they'll just make me look like a ginormous dork. :blushing:

Well...I'm lucky that I don't have anyone telling me what I can't do with my own body and/or am not afraid to do what I want. I have tattoos (and will get more), have a nose ring, and keep my hair super short because I love it! I also drive a super cool suv AND have my house painted in a way that reflects who i am.

One of my brothers said once that I'd never attract a guy with my hair so short--what I have to say to that is " if he's a real man and not afraid to let someone else be real themselves then that's who I want anyways. Sorry for ranting here! ;o). People not doing what they want is one of the things that makes me frustrated for them. And society. Enjoy yourself.

If I really wanted the nose ring, I would get one - and my husband would still love me. I promise I'm not suffering any for not having one. My life as it is is very fulfilling. If i never do any of the things I mentioned, I will still die happy. :flowerforyou:

I would maybe get a tattoo on my *kitten*! But then when I get really old it would be saggy and dumb looking so I guess I'll just stick with being me!!

LOL. Saggy skin when I get really old was the reason why I never got a tattoo.

I would quit my job and travel the world for a year. I would visit every continent, then I'd come back and finish college.... and then maybe I'd get a job.

I traveled quite a bit as a 20-something, but not nearly as much as I would have if I could have afforded it. The month I spent traveling through Europe was by far one of the best experiences of my life and I can't wait to start traveling more again as my kids get older/easier to take on extended trips.

I'm glad, I wasn't trying to say you weren't happy, sorry if there was a misunderstanding...I was just having a rant ...about people not doing what they want. Take care.

Get one on your ankle like I did. If my ankles ever sag, I've got bigger problems than a saggy tattoo! lol

No misunderstanding. You said people not doing what they want frustrates you, so I wanted to make sure you knew you didn't have to be frustrated for me.

I'd get rid of all televisions in my house, have long hair that's black with red 'chunks', get my ears pierced and wear a Bajoran ear piece & have a lip piercing, wear nothing but jeans and flip flops and work from home making organic compost and growing worms and raising bees. I'd have a pottery studio and my own kiln.... I'd have a huge garden and go to sleep/get up with the setting and rising of the sun only.

That sounds so cool! I would want to come over to your house

LOL my post made me sound like i'd be topless all day long..... GO ME!!!

If I could I would make two of me that way I would be able to understand 1 human being completely without any complexity or judgement.

:laugh: That's pretty much why my tattoo is on my ankle. I briefly considered getting a tattoo around my belly button when it was pierced in my 20s, but re-considered since I didn't know what pregnancy would do to it. I'm sooooo glad I re-thought that one now after 4 kids!

Got that right, you should have seen my tummy tattoo while I was pregnant (it was huge). In my defense, I hadn't planned on having any more children when I got it. Ooops. :laugh:

Ohhh...that's kinda deep. :glasses: I have to confess that this probably wouldn't work for me b/c *I* don't always understand me. lol

Yikes!! Thanks for the affirmation that I made the right choice. :laugh:

Exactly my point. Afterall you already understand that you don't understand yourself.

I'd have a boob job - need to balance out the hips!

Man, who cares? You'd be old. Plus 70% of people our age already have a tattoo.....so at least we'll all look terrible together. :happy:

I suppose if I were to do anything, it would totally become a homeless nomad and play music for money. Preferably overseas in europe or something. Going from town to town anyway I could. I think the adventures, stories, and people I'd meet would be the best thing ever.

My gf and I are planning on working on organic farms for room and board next year or the following in London and other places. Perhaps New Zealand or Australia. I cannot wait. You can do it for as little as a few months or years if you wanted. Maybe 6-12 months will be perfect tho. Enough to see parts of the world and meet some new people. I'm going to have to quit my job and sell everything I own, but its totally going to be worth it. *You only live once. Be as happy as you can and do what you want. *i refuse to type or say YOLO

That sounds awesome! Good for you that you're going to do that!
