Here's a teaser photo I stole from tmronin's journal because I love it!
First I'll start with hellcity. I met some amazing, lovely, fun ladies in Ohio. It was great to be in a hotel full of tattooed and cool, chill people and bunk with such great girls! Wendy will always have my heart though. Here's some pics from the first day of that most memorable weekend (I was too tired to carry my camera around the rest of the weekend but now I'm kicking myself). (WARNING: lots of pictures below!)
So thats all for Hellcity. Now on to NYC.
I had so much fun in New York but mostly because I got to stay with my bestest friend in the world that I have known since I was 18. She was the very first person to take naked pictures of me (well, besides my parents but that's just gross and I don't want to think about it). She's a fellow Canadian ex-patriat living in New York. I think she'd make a kick-ass SG and maybe one day you'll see her on here but not quite yet. She came to the convention with me and you'll see some pics of here in here. I also got to hang out with some more fabulous SG's and I'm very happy about that. I got a new tattoo by ymonster (see pics) and shot by tmronin. Be on the lookout for that set in coming months. It's gonna be hot!
Mostly I just shopped. Luckily it paid off and I got one of my designs in the window of a cute boutique in the East Village. I guess I'm back in the designing game since she wants to buy more of my stuff. Check out her shop at Circa Now.
On to the pictures...
♥ Taye
I was just looking at your set the other and I was blown away by your back piece.... that's amazing!!!
a group trip with you and wendy sounds great to me. i loved japan so much, and although i eventually met up with a tour group of strangers, i was alone in tokyo for a few days and basically alone among the tour group (all older people scandalized by my tattoos and--gasp! can you eat like that?--lip ring). while travelling that far away alone was certainly empowering--you're like, "fuck dude, if i can navigate this tokyo metro system without getting lost, then i can do anything"--the only thing that would have made it better would've been having a friend to share it with. i kept thinking, "i wish i had someone with me to be amazed," b/c you know stories and photos can never really express how you felt and what it was like.
so let me go back to the strip club this summer (ugh. i hate stripping.) and make some much needed cash, then you tell me where you guys want to go.
'cause i'm totally there.
you rock taye.
love.luz.
