Risky business
The sixth episode in my formative sex & relationship series.
Trying to keep up with the party culture around me, I throw myself right into the chaos unsure of what I want or who I am. Precarious situations become normalized with hangovers & regrets abound.
*Heads up* I describe an act of violence, detail multiple sexual acts and discuss alcohol & drug use.
In this series:
Ep 14 :: Seeding disenchantment
Ep 16 :: Petroleum engineering smart
Ep 17 :: Sex and the city
Ep 18 :: Part of the job
Ep 19 :: Hawaiian breeze era
Pre-drinking in my first apartment. Bunny curtains, low rise jeans and likely a Sean Paul remix in the background 🐇👖🥂
A night out could include 2-3 Long Island iced teas, 4 double rum & cokes, 4+ beers & a sequence of ridiculously named shots.
🍹🥃🍷🍾🥂🍻
*I would like to acknowledge the ignorance behind the outfit & makeup choices in the above photo & apologize for the blatant cultural appropriation. At the time I believed I was celebrating a culture that I loved, whereas now I find this clearly harmful.
A night of jello shots, cider, Bacardi Breezers & nachos turns into fluorescent, back door vomiting at work 🤢 (And yes, that’s a glow-in-the-dark painting of ET & Michael Jackson on the wall)
My drawings at the time accurately reflect my lifestyle changes… 🥃🥃

The love of my life at the time-please meet my Volkswagen van, Queen Mable 👑
Channeling an alter ego (“freak magnet vest” makes an appearance again)
