So yesterday i had a telephone interview about my project, today the photographer came around.....i am not looking forward to my photo being in the paper for everyone to see and scrutinize.
In fact i might even go as far as to say that i am terrified of what people will say, what people will think, what people will do. I'm so not that person who craves attention or is used to people paying her attention, now with this story and the fact that my tattoos are pretty recognizable i am scared i'm gonna get all kinds of abuse. Just for having an idea and being an artist and for going through with something i believe in.
There's gonna be a lot of older people looking down their noses at me. There's a man who comes in the pub and makes jokes about my tattoos, saying i'm like a man, i laugh these comments off with him but it actually really offends me. What gives him the right to make a judgement on me because i have a few tattoos?! He's a rude old man but i don't say that to his face do i, no, because i'm POLITE. Something a lot of the older generation aren't, concerning themselves far too much with my decision to get tattoos, MY DECISION.
They aren't all bad, in fact just in asda the other day i was looking at the magazines and i heard an old guy trying to discreetly whisper to his wife 'lovely rose, look, a lovely rose, the chest on the chest', i caught him pointing at me and then prodding his wife, lol, it made my day i swear.
Wow sorry, didn't mean to turn that into a rant :-/ like i said, i'm worried. When people complain about something or judge or criticise they seem to forget the person they're aiming their jibes at actually has feelings.....
