Tattooed, scarred, pierced, hopeful, myself.

I've been tattooing for just over a year now, learning every single day. I've been collecting tattoos since the spring I turned 18, and am heading for my goals in that area. I am a recovering addict, I've been clean for multiple years. I belong to a subcultural community found in the IAM pages of bmezine.com, and have found my true friends there, a world within and without mainstream society. I am myself, simply put, and don't care much what others think. As long as I've got friends and family supporting me, I will pursue my dreams until I've chased them down and lived them. I am scarred, tattooed, pierced, and stretched, but heavier modifications look good on others, and aren't a part of my plan- but plans change. I am lost, I am found, I am a free spirit, I am spiritual but NOT religious, I am drug-free and living free.
