Nalgenius

I’d never call myself trendy. I know I own black-framed glasses and am particularly fond of sweaters, but I don’t orient my life around the latest fads. Honestly, I don’t. I bought my pea coat before the craze and have been a fan of Regina Spektor for a while.

Keep it for life

·

There’s only one thing that lasts forever. Sure, it might fade over time, but it sticks with you for life. When you look at it, you’re immediately sent back to the exact time it became part of you, clinging to you until death. It is a constant reminder of everything you once cared about, believed in and stood for. Love has nothing on tattoos.
