I got my tattoo at Walker’s Point Tattoo in Milwaukee, Wisco done by Tom Aldana. My tattoo is a memorial piece for my grandma who recently passed. I was her part time caretaker because she suffered from dementia and was almost immobile. The floral pattern I got was from her bedspread and the words are from the musical “Guys and Dolls.” Even though my grandmother had a difficult time remembering things towards the end she never forgot those words and she said them to me everyday.
Bitter sweetness
I'm 20
Pisces
Majoring in Spanish and English
A bit of a jaded romantic

Angry, and half in love with you, and tremendously sorry, I turned away.

New Study Shows Hillary Clinton’s Face Makes Women More Confident
Tess VandenDolder Apr 25th at 1:07 pm
In the study individual men and women were asked to give a speech in front of a panel of six strangers. For some there was a picture of Bill Clinton on the back wall and for others there was a picture of Hillary. Overall the men spoke longer and were judged as better speakers than the women, except for the group of ladies who spoke while looking into Hillary’s baby blues. That group blew the men out of the water as far as the length of their speeches and overall confidence and success in conveying their ideas publicly.
The conclusion researchers drew from this study was that when women are exposed to powerful female role models in leadership positions they gained instant boosts in confidence and the ability to achieve at high levels. ”Female political role models can inspire women and help them cope with stressful situations that they encounter in their careers, such as public speaking,” the authors of the study wrote. ”A lack of female powerful role models leads to a vicious circle, because if women fail to take leadership positions, they also fail to provide role models for junior women to follow.”](http://25.media.tumblr.com/672d684b33beecc278662d555db2b865/tumblr_mn5qah1qPX1qkx16go1_250.jpg)

For women who are tied to the moon, love alone is not enough. We insist each day wrap it’s knuckles through our heart strings and pull. The lows. The joy. The poetry. We dance at the edge of a cliff, you have fallen off. So it goes. You will climb up again.
You rare girl, once again, you have a body that belongs to no lover, to no father, belongs to no one but you. Wear your sorrow like the lines on your palm. Like a shawl to keep you warm at night. Don’t mourn the love that is lost to you now. It is a book of poems whose meters worked their way into your pulse. Even if it has slipped from your hands, it will stay in your body.
You loved a man who treated you like absinthe, half poison and half god. He tried to sweeten you, to water you down. So you left. And now you have your heart all to yourself again. A heart like a stone cottage. Heart like a lover’s diary. Hope like an ocean.
