Then I have my real dad who is actually my step-dad who...

I am now facing the problem with do I "sell-out", shave my mohawk and cover my tattoos to get the job/insurance that I "need" or do I continue on my chosen path and continue adorning my body with art and expressing myself...

I think that she is the hottest girl that I have ever seen and the most talented artist in existance. I have a strict reputation of being a emotionless hardass and...
