On March 21, a group of us got together to go to the Mexican restaurant. We had a lot of fun, but the night was far from over! Christy was ready for another tattoo. I finally made the decision of what I wanted and just decided to go for it. After going to three different tattoo parlors, we finally found the right place. Christy went first, getting a palm tree of her lower side of her back. Then Katie decided to get another. She got a wooden cross with a pink flower on her shoulder. AND THEN... It was my turn! I knew that I wanted to get a bird to symbolize "spreading your wings" and "flying". After doing a little looking around, I found a tattoo of a bird, which I really liked. Doves are always great, because they symbolize peace. I was finally ready! I sat in the tattoo chair and waited while my tattoo artist Jimbo got ready.
Ouch...
The tattoo defiantly hurt, but I could defiantly do it again. In fact, I think I might! I'm really happy with my tattoo and I'm glad that I got it.
On the night of March 20, I went to Sportsman Bar and it was karaoke night. I got my courage up at sang "Since You've Been Gone" by Kelly Clarkson. The lyrics are posted below.
Here's the thing we started off friends It was cool but it was all pretend Yeah yeah Since you've been gone
You dedicated you took the time Wasn't long till I called you mine Yeah Yeah Since you've been gone
And all you'd ever hear me say Is how I pictured me with you That's all you'd ever hear me say
But since you've been gone I can breathe for the first time Im so movin on Yeah yeah Thanks to you Now I get What I want Since you've been gone
How can I put it? you put me on I even fell for that stupid love song Yeah yeah Since you've been gone
How come I never hear you say I just wanna be with you I guess you never felt that way
But since you've been gone I can breathe for the first time Im so movin on Yeah yeah Thanks to you Now I get I get what I want Since you've been gone
You had your chance you blew it Out of sight, out of mind Shut your mouth I just can't take it Again and again and again and again
Since you've been gone I can breathe for the first time Im so movin on Yeah yeah Thanks to you (thanks to you) Now I get I get what I want I can breathe for the first time Im so movin on Yeah yeah Thanks to you (thanks to you) Now I get (I get) You should know (you should know) That I get I get what I want Since you've been gone Since you've been gone Since you've been gone
