My Music Yearbook

I’ve always been the girl to document every little important detail of my life (or at least try to.) I know it’s crazy, but I swear I’m not a hoarder…If I am, I’m an organized one! =P

Anyway, I’ve been thinking of doing a musical yearbook for the longest time. My musical yearbook would consist of the songs and/or albums in my life that have made an impact on who I am today.

There will be six different time frames: Early life (Infant-5 y/o), Early Grade school (6 y/o - 8 y/o), Late Grade school (9 y/o - 11 y/o), Junior High (12 y/o - 13 y/o), High School [with sub-categories in each class] (14 y/o -17 y/o), and College [with sub-categories in each class] (18 y/o - present).

Each entry will include the song and artist (obviously), the time frame in which it made a difference, and the story behind it. There also may or may not be an audio clip or video for that song.

It may be awhile before I start, but finally writing it down, I think will push me to begin.

Can’t help if I space in a daze. My eyes tune out the other way. I may switch off and go in a daydream. In this head my thoughts are deep, but sometimes I can’t even speak. Will someone be and not pretend? I’m off again in my world!

letsbeseamonsters: Nautical Tattoos. There are many. Sailors in large part are responsible for the revival of tattooing—and as a cast of men, at the mercy of Mother Nature, they were a superstitious bunch.  For Sailors, tattoos were representative of experience. Each image held specific meanings, and was either a mark of pride, or precaution. Some of these images can be found today on many young tattoo enthusiasts, eager to commandeer nautical/maritime symbols as metaphors for their life conditions (Ex: Stars, Sparrows, Compass, etc). I’ve composed a list here of various tattoos and their meanings/superstitions for the advancement of your trivial knowledge.  Swallows: Always find their way home. Sparrows: One for every 5,000 nautical miles sailed. Anchor: Having sailed the Atlantic. Also, if the sailor was a merchant marine. Rope around the wrist: The sailor was a deckhand. Lettering across the knuckles: (Typically HOLD FAST) to help a sailor keep from dropping line or falling overboard. Turtle: Having sailed/crossed the equator. Dragon: Having sailed in to port in China. Dagger through a rose: Willingness to kill or fight, even something delicate as a rose. Compass/Nautical Star: To guide a sailor home. Mermaids, Hula Girls, Pin-ups: To remind a sailor what awaited him at port, good luck if a sailor fell overboard, (and so they could always carry porn with them).  A pig or rooster: To prevent a sailor from drowning, also: ‘Pig on the knee, safety at sea. A cock on the right, never lose a fight.’ Piercings: Sailors often got their ears pierced because it was believed to help improve eyesight. Particular earrings/piercings also held meaning in regard to a sailor’s accomplishments. Most importantly, gold earrings were used as a means of ensuring they were buried properly should they die at sea or in a foreign port.  For more information about tattoos and nautical/maritime tattoos visit here and here.  Via The Lady Fish Zoom
