To introduce todays image, let me give you a little bit of background. Now, I don't know if you guys can tell from the tone of my previous posts, but I'm somewhat of a rebel. Somewhat of a wild card. Sometimes my friends and I like to get up to some real shenanigans, some hijinks if you will.

A couple years ago, my friends got the idea that doing some graffiti would be cool, and pretty quickly we got right to it. Now, as a good, pure, innocent, at the time 18 year old, I'd never done graffiti before, so I really wasn't super sure how to go about it, but I gave it my best shot

I went wild and came up with the phrase ‘rat dad is watching,’ and from that, my friend took the creative liberty to draw that cute little ratto in the bottom right corner, which to this day is one of my favorite drawings she’s ever done for me

We would get up to a little bit more general silliness over the years, I think a couple drawings of which were still in the local skatepark up until recently 
This one was definitely there for a long while after I did it, it might still be to this day actually

Basically as much as people will tell you that doing graffiti is bad and troublesome, if you're doing it in the right spaces with the right people, it is a great, friendship building activity (so long as people don't actually find out that it was you) ;)
