Body modifications such as tattoos & piercings.
Current mood: amorous
Category: Blogging

Hello my dears!

To whom this may apply, I apologize if any of you feel excluded:) I have a genuine appreciation for and generally fancy body modifications such as tattoos and piercings. I wonder what all of my friends on here have had done and if they would not mind sharing. Please let me know, feel free to post an image if you would like. Regardless let me know and I will check out your profile. I am planning many additional tattoos and piercings, thoughtfully.

Thus far the only alterations I have had done are:

A tongue piercing
A large tattoo on the inside of my left wrist
(ear piercings are common so I am excluding them)

Have a lovely eve. sweets

F.A.Q
Category: Life

These are just some things I'd like to get cleared up. 

I have MANY passions in life.  In regards to modeling,  I do not expect to ever do traditional high end runway shows in Milan or Paris, as contributing to fashion magazines in the future, I will ofcourse expect to attend them and drool over everything & one. I will ofcourse bring a hanky to clean up my mess:)

I am primarily interested in artistic expression and unusual captures that are memorable.  As well as collaborating with up and coming designers who create gothic, fetish, alternative, cyber, techno, dolly, pin-up, lolita mish-mash type clothing.  I am personally a whore for designers such as Yohji Yamamoto, Helmut Lang, Mcqueen, Christian Lacroix, Roberto Cavalli, Dries Van Noten, Commes des Garcons, Vivienne Westwood, Herve Leger, Issey Miyake and the list goes on. I do appreciate decinstructed and architectural types of pieces.  I adore fun new alternative labels with gothic & punk influences.

Q: Would you like to do porn?

A: Not in any way, form or manner,

Q: Would you like the wonderful chance to be our promotional model?!

A:  Unless you represent motorcyle, car, bmx companies, alt. labels or some phenomenal beauty line that is well known, I'll decline.  I do not do booze, ciggie or other merchandise modeling.  I don't mean to hate, but I don't really consider it modeling, the guidelines are less stringent for who they select and typically the pay doesn't make my heart swoon.

Q: Haha, do you actually think you're gonna be famous?!

A: I don't think fame comes into the equation, and that's not why I'm doing this! Unlike some other deluded individuals I know I am not going to model for Dior or be on the cover of Vogue.

Q: Why are you so skinny, men like women with meat on their bones!

A:  I don't eat fast food, I rarely drink, I'm vegan and I work my *ss off and don't sleep much.  I have a very active lifestyle.  I also don't care about being everyone's ideal of beauty and that aside, it's impossible to meet everyone's expectations.  I am petite and have never weighed over 100lbs. 

C: Boys don't like girls with short hair

R: I don't like boys who don't like girls with short hair, and I don't care! :)

C:  You should hide your scars, they're ugly!

R:  Same could be said for your face, but I won't say it!

I'd also like to clear up one FINAL thing to people who make hateful comments to me in passing on the street.

I'm not rich, I've never been.

I'm white?!  I never really think about it, I see my ethnicity.

I'm not American

I had a life filled with hardship, am very thankful and hard-working.

There's nothing wrong with wearing clean clothing or being put together, you don't have to wear your past on your sleeve.

So please stop calling me a rich skinny white bitch!

Please review my work and comment at any given time.  I’ve begun diving into modeling once more on a serious note.  Trying new expressions which is an adventure and creating completely new characters.. or so you think.  Really though, I own these dimensions, they are my private self.  I hope you see where I go and I am excited to be collaborating on more intense projects.  Modeling can be rough play really, the day after I feel as though I have been playing hardcore Rugby against group of ultra athletic men:)  With many painful tacklings.  If you have any suggestions, feel free.  I personally lean towards work that is high end fashion mingling with sinister sets and fetish clothing or themes.  Let the fun begin.  I do generally do my own hair/make-up and often provide my own wardrobe, the point really is to create art.  It sounds cliche, but in my instance it’s true, so you won’t see much glamour(unless it is fetish) or bikini work here, I’m not the type and it’s just not the direction I’m steering myself towards.  So remember, I am my own limitation, hence I may not have wildest variety just yet (Give me time...), but I’d love to network, so keep me in mind.

Much love,

Dari:)

The one??

So. Today I spoke with someone. Married only 11 months and the lady took him for everything. It's a good scheme for a low-life if you can stomach your own worthless existence afterwards. My goodness. Well, I've always been partial to independence, especially financial. Here's why:

If I'm with someone, I want them to know that it's solely because I want THEM as a whole. I don't need a partnership to further myself, for stability & so forth. I want the ONE in their entirety and only for the purpose of love. Love is a greedy villain, it's for my inner contentedness, for more blissful passing times, to cherish someone because they raise my spirits. So don't we take enough just in our want of a someone? I'm read wrong because I try to be respectful of the ones I love. Yes sure, love is boundless and all that grand jazz, but I'm not here to wreck a heart or to drain bank accounts. We want to further those we love, it's only fair since they help us progress through the comfort they provide in the sanctity of our emotional graces.

So I figure
Current mood: blah
Category: Romance and Relationships

I may as well post here occassionally in hopes of getting my more boring posts eventually disappear into obscurity.

So at present I am attempting to complete 2 music reviews/articles.  A pleasant enough mixture of both, so I am doping myself up with caffiene and delicious coffee to stimulate both: creativity & energy.  I'd actually like to delve into writing poetry, but it's such a distraction, much like photo editing, you can't stop tinkering with the damn thing until you're done, it's one of those more "healthy" obsessions.

So ah, what's been up lately?  A lot.  Of the same and no, nothing terribly new.  I missed work because I was deathly ill and delerious, never before have the days passed so quickly and wastefully, but what can you do?  If you aren't lucid and can't move, well, I don't think I should feel bad about it, I do however hate! missing work.  What a waste of precious moneys that could have been mine. 

Other news, I think I've finally reached a transitional point for something very serious and near to my heart and that I have been absolutely entangled in for years.  Those of you who know my personal life will know what I am referring to.  I've finally reached a point where I have to break out of this habitual relationship and climb onto a new path.  Where I can grow, become more productive and independent.  It's hard as hell, and I don't know how I'll deal with the loneliness, but I'm also excited about the prospect of new experiences as challanging as they may be.  I simply haven't liked the direction my life and personality have been heading into for quite a while, and I've tried to change traits, habits etc.  but I don't really think that was the problem.  I used to be quite different, very adventurous and extremely optimistic.  Now I feel joy-less and have become very private, sedate and a bit panicky(Not a charming trait I tell you).  I actually DO avoid daylight, probably why I work so much, it keeps me indoors, and I hardly meet up with friends.  I think hermit would be the right term for me, I just know I need t make some changes before I begin living in an alternative reality that doesn't really exist or fit in with the real world.

So cheers, here's to taking chances and begining anew.

To my friends.

This probably isn't the place to post, it's more of a livejournal thing.  I've completed quite a number of things I was hoping to accomplish by the end of the year.  In there lies a grain of satisfaction.  Though I didn't have much to begin with, I wonder if what was already fraying has almost completely dissolved.  I'm a terrible friend.  I am isolated and mute.  I am not social.  But you weigh your gains with your losses.  But living life is living amongst others.  I forget my duties are not simply to get by and it isn't personal gain.  I've never truly been a selfish person, I'm quite nice and caring really, but it's difficult to express it.  But people are living beings(obviously) and there is no trick to reverse and try again, and sometimes you can't mend what you've started down a not so pleasant road.  I just want my friends to know I love them, and I'm sorry I am always away in every respect.

There's an illness and it's existed for quite some time, it isn't airborne, it isn't transmitted in any manner.  I think I'd rather call it a developmental illness;)  It is made evidant the moment a person rethinks their natural reactions, especially when they pertain to expressing "personality" :)  Laugh, it won't ruin your frozen river, your portrayel of steadiness in a certain lifestyle.  It won't make anyone think you are less intelligent, or god forbid.. less serious.  After all, haven't your furrowed eyebrows become your trademark?  Always steeped in deep thinking..?  Hm?  I will never understand why some individuals assume they've discovered the holy grail to internal peace and aparant "correct thinking" over others, simply because they are a bit, or less feeling in general.  If you can find peace, then so be, but you must seemingly be existing in another reality, atleast somewhat, because this world IS unrest.  There is nothing wrong with awknowledging all of the world's traits from end to end.  There is nothing wrong with reacting to something negative.  How someone can decide that nothing matters or that everything is not really anything at all, good or bad, moral.. immoral, wickedly sweet or sour lips inducing, their mind is beyond my realm, and not because I can not understand them.  I simply don't want to think as they do.  It would seem a life less worth living.
