Stop hoping.
Stop pretending.

No Pain, No Gain!

There’s physical pain, there’s emotion pain…. If you want something really bad, you are going to have to suck it up and take it. Fortunately for you, there are less drastic ways to ease the pain over taking local/general anesthetic or popping Advil’s that never work:

MENTALLY TRICK YOURSELF.

Pain is good.
This feels good.
I love pain.

Last month, I got a thin stroke of eyeliner tattooed on my top eyelid and the inner lids hurt like FCK— I have a pretty high pain tolerance too but this pain was just shocking and totally unexpected. I told myself to stop being a little bitch and suck it up because I wanted this. I kept on repeating this to myself as my eyeballs were literally being stabbed but the mental bitching really made the experience more tolerable.

Lecture yourself.

No pain no gain.
SUCK IT UP!!

Next time you’re in pain, say this over and over to yourself, whether it’s physical pain from a vain beauty procedure like mine, mental and physical pain from a hardcore workout or emotional pain from stress or no sleep. I battle these kinds of pain everyday (well, minus the beauty procedures) and the only way I get through them is talking to myself. I do it so much that I can say I’m a master at it now… but I only talk to myself in my head, okay.

The eyeliner tattoo? I would totally do it again, after I work up the courage to go back since I want to make it a tad bit thicker.

SUCK IT UP

By the way, if you need a recommendation for an amazing and passionate cosmetic tattooist, contact me. I swear she’s awesome. Just remember to bring a friend to hold your hand.

The Bitch-Face

Erin recently published an article on the Vancouver Dating Scene. I’m not going to make any comments on that since I have no experience in dating but I did see a comment by anonymous person about girls leaving the gym with a “don’t-talk-to-me bitch face.”

I’m one of those girls with a bitch-face but  don’t judge me! I can’t help it because I was born this way! I’m not one (most of the time) but my friends tell me I look like one and it was worse in highschool when I use to parade around the halls with my bitch-face on and headphones blasting— so that I seem to be ignoring everyone when they called out my name. I’m not going to walk around with a fake and cheesy smile on my face 24/7 like some girls do but I must admit, having a bitch-face really does have it’s perks and it’s easy to un-bitchify it too with a hint of a smile. Bitch-faces are useful, ladies! Know when to use it.

There is one place where I think the bitch-face is 100% appropriate: AT THE GYM.

  1. The gym is NOT a place to socialize. A friendly hi is as far as it goes.
  2. DO NOT TALK TO ME AT THE GYM. Even if I know you. Because for that hour, I don’t know anybody.
  3. I hate it when my workouts are interrupted.
  4. Gym routine: in, do your thing & get out.

There I said it.
