Unusual Tattoos

I want to do something crazy to my hair or my face; like a piercing or other such crazy thing — but what?

I want to get something crazy done, but I don’t know what! I was thinking about a Monroe piercing, but my sister pointed out that Amy Winehouse has one, so I quickly forgot that Idea.
I would like an interesting and unusual piercing, but I want something really cool — and I don’t know enough about piercings to think of something really cool (or maybe I’m just a moron, lol).
I DON’T want to be too mainstream, too Scene, too Emo, or have anything done that a celebrity has popularised (I don’t mind doing something that a celebrity has done — celebrities have done most things — but I don’t want to do something that a celebrity has MADE cool).
I’m not against dying my hair, as long as it’s a colour that’s obviously not my natural colour (like lilac or something, but not lilac).
If it’s relevant, I’m a natural blonde with fairly pale skin and grey-green eyes.
Oh, and I’m too young for a tattoo (I’m 16), but I’m def getting one when I’m 18.

Any advice is most welcome! Thanks!

How To Screw Up an Interview?

We’ve all been interviewed for jobs. And, we’ve all spent most of those interviews thinking about what not to do. Don’t bite your nails. Don’t fidget. Don’t interrupt. Don’t belch. If we did any of the don’ts, we knew we’d disqualify ourselves instantly. But some job applicants go light years beyond this. We surveyed top personnel executives of 100 major American corporations and asked for stories of unusual behavior by job applicants. The lowlights:

1. “… stretched out on the floor to fill out the job application.”

2. “She wore a Walkman and said she could listen to me and the music at the same time.”

3. “A balding candidate abruptly excused himself. Returned to office a few minutes later, wearing a hairpiece.”

4. “… asked to see interviewer’s resume to see if the personnel executive was qualified to judge the candidate.”

5. “… announced she hadn’t had lunch and proceeded to eat a hamburger and french fries in the interviewer’s office – wiping the ketchup on her sleeve”

6. “Stated that, if he were hired, he would demonstrate his loyalty by having the corporate logo tattooed on his forearm.”

7. “Interrupted to phone his therapist for advice on answering specific interview questions.”

8. “When I asked him about his hobbies, he stood up and started tap dancing around my office.”

9 . “At the end of the interview, while I stood there dumbstruck, went through my purse, took out a brush, brushed his hair, and left.”

10. “… pulled out a Polaroid camera and snapped a flash picture of me. Said he collected photos of everyone who interviewed him.”

11. “Said he wasn’t interested because the position paid too much.”

12. “While I was on a long-distance phone call, the applicant took out a copy of Penthouse, and looked through the photos only, stopping longest at the centerfold.”

13. “During the interview, an alarm clock went off from the candidate’s brief case. He took it out, shut it off, apologized and said he had to leave for another interview.”

14. “A telephone call came in for the job applicant. It was from his wife. His side of the conversation went like this: “‘Which company? When do I start? What’s the salary?’ I said, ‘I assume you’re not interested in conducting the interview any further.’ He promptly responded, ‘I am as long as you’ll pay me more.’ I didn’t hire him, but later found out there was no other job offer. It was a scam to get a higher offer.”

15. “His attache [case] opened when he picked it up and the contents spilled, revealing ladies’ undergarments and assorted makeup and perfume.”

16. “Candidate said he really didn’t want to get a job, but the unemployment office needed proof that he was looking for one.”

17. “… asked who the lovely babe was, pointing to the picture on my desk. When I said it was my wife, he asked if she was home now and wanted my phone number. I called security.”

18. “Pointing to a black case he carried into my office, he said that if he was not hired, the bomb would go off. Disbelieving, I began to state why he would never be hired and that I was going to call the police. He then reached down to the case, flipped a switch and ran. No one was injured, but I did need to get a new desk.”

What is going on here?

Okay… here’s the deal. I met this guy at his place of employment during the summer. He’s a tattoo artist so we had several sessions together. During our times, we had lots of fun. We talked, laughed, flirted, compared upbringings, etc. I realize that this is part of his job but he seemed to be taking a really long time for a simple piece and, yet, undercharging at the same time.
Now, I am interested in getting into the tattoo business as well so I asked for help. He said he was happy to help and to contact him anytime. I stopped in a couple of times and have asked him a shitload of questions via internet. He’s always been very open to helping me.
I figured, we get along great, and I like making friends (even though neither of us is ‘single’) so I asked him to do something sometime over facebook.
This is where it got weird. He wrote back a bunch of flirty stuff. Things like “my kinda girl” and “so do you want to do this or what (referring to hooking up).” This wasn’t my original intention but, now that it’s been put in my mind… I am kinda considering it.
We agreed to do something (friend-wise but I was open to seeing where this led) but, when it came down to it he gave me the old “too busy”. Now, he hasn’t written back for almost a week (which is unusual). He is usually on facebook at least once/day, but he seem to have disappeared.
WTF? Right? He hit on me and now he’s scared off?
What does someone out there think? Where do I go from here? Forget it or take another shot? Yes I know we’re not single… so all you people on your high horses can spare me the lectures.
Thanks for the advice. Even those of you who were more harsh. I just needed a new perspective and, it’s a tough situation, so it’s not like I can ask anyone I actually know.
I think I’m going to let this one go for now. Maybe we can pick it up as friends/work colleagues in a couple of months when the whole flirting hardcore business can be forgotten or when he makes the initiative.
I do think he was testing the waters and got a little freaked out when the waters were, perhaps, a little too receptive.
But no, I didn’t hit on him first. I genuinely wanted to be friends. He started the whole next level thing… I am guilty of playing with fire.
But I think, in the end, I’m making the more mature choice thanks to the advice.

Surreal Makeover–Help?

I’m going on a trip where I will need to make everything about my appearance a heightened sense of reality. Everything should be heightened in color, etc. like someone would think of for a fantasy. I need some help acheiving this. I don’t mind permanent dyes etc., but tattooing and piercing is out of the question. Everything just needs to look unrealistic, unusual, and brighter, without going completely unrealistic — No pink hair, etc. Just heightened reality.
Here are my current colors:
Hair – very long and curly, dark brown, almost black, shines reddish gold in sunlight.
eyes-hazel
skin – very pale white with freckles
eyebrows – quite dark and somewhat thick.

Ideas for makeup, haircolor, fantasy dress (with colors), and hair style would be great.

Again this is a fantasy vacation theme. Everyone should change into a heightened sense of reality without looking like they are ready for Halloween. Think deep Jewel tones instead of earth tones etc.

Thanks.
Dani boo’s first nordstrom choice is about the color range my friend has picked out. That might actually work. I’ll see if I can’t pull up the painting she is basing this party on.
Here’s a pic that’s kind of like she was after. I’ll see if I can find more.

Here’s another pic for a coloring guide, in case anyone else wants to throw in their two cents worth

Don’t be put off by the medieval thing. That’s where the inspiration came from, but modern is cool. Like I said, it’s all just supposed to be heightened reality, heightened color etc. Dani Boo has got the idea in case anyone needs some more image references.

Caution jokes. If you have no sense of humor please don’t read. I find I need to post this warning because

some people don’t know where they are and think the comments are serious and then tell me to go f**k myself.

Take caution if they ever enter your place.
For the French are a most unusual race.
They eat snails for supper

They fight with their feet,

Anyone have a strong knowledge of Latin?

I’m going to ask this question just to confirm it is correct for what or how I’m using it. I don’t know anything about Latin so I’m not positive what details are needed to make sure of that but I’ll try to give as much as I can think of. I need to make sure this is right because I’m getting it tattooed on my ribs. “collige rara avis rosas sed sapere aude” I want it because I know collige virgo rosas has a similar meaning to carpe diem. I changed out virgo because rara avis is used to describe something extraordinary or unusual( something I’m calling myself I suppose) Also it is going above a sun/birds tattoo so I thought it was fitting. The sapere aude I also wanted to incorporate because I don’t believe in siezing the day without being wise about it. I’m a girl. I don’t know if any of that information would mean I’d need to change the sentence at all though. I would appreciate feedback greatly as this will be permanent. Thank you

PLZ READ THIS FUNNY POEM. ?

I cant put up any of the poems that I consider to be good becuase I did not copyright any of them but this one is not really that bad and its a funny one. What do you think ?

Permanent mark
In the sudden rush of emotions an unusual thought has gone
through his mind.
His vision of consequences was clearly blind
Bulldogs face was tattooed on his arm
He had no idea that it can do any harm
It was suppose to be a soul expression
But it looked more like a sign of aggression
He was dancing and singing with a crowd
everyone had fun and the music was playing loud
than he woke up sober and really surprised
how foolish it was he now realized
he came home while it was still dark
not empty but with permanent mark
tattoo is like a first impression made
it will stay there for ever, it will never fade.
