Doing Things My Parents Would Not Approve Of

As someone who grew up in a pretty free opinion household, there are some things that my parents would not approve of if I did them. They always give me the opportunity of expressing myself with my clothing and other things.BUT not with certain things they find “rebellious".

Tattoos

Pinterest

My parents never liked the idea of people getting tattoos and having their whole body covered with them, but in my opinion, I think it's a beautiful way you can express yourself by creating art on your skin and that are meaningful to you. I already in the process to scheduled my appointment to get my first tattoo and my parents won't stop me from doing it.

Piercings

Me with my nose ring

My parents consider that people who pierced their body are drug addicts and have nothing beneficial to bring to this world. I find it as something aesthetically pleasing like any other piece of jewelry. I currently have a nose ring/hoop and I love it! , my parents totally freaked when they saw it and completely disapproved, but with the time they don't even notice it anymore lol.

Hair Dye

Garnier

I think that dying your hair is a form of expressing how you feel and it's a good life-changing experience, my parents on the other hand think it's something that only ridiculous people do , little do they know I'm dying my hair today, so let's see how that goes.

Make up

Debate

MAKEUP IS FOR GIRLS! , something my parents always said when they saw me watching tutorials on makeup or simply watching a James Charles or Jeffree Star vídeo. I bought my first ever palette second semester of my freshmen year of college and I totally love it! , but that's a secret I'll never tell.

And so goes on the list of many things I'm not allowed to do, yet I'm doing. Never feel deprived of expressing yourself, you are unique and Fabulous and nobody can say otherwise. You make your own path.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
