i heart graffiti

omg i remembered this awesome silly thing i did when i was a kid. i think i had watched something on tv about graffiti. i don't remember what it was exactly, but it was probably a story on the news about those damn kids that spray paint on buildings and shit. i don't even know if i even knew the word graffiti back then; i must have been like 6 or something!

anyways, i was playing in my room by myself and i decided to put on my own tv show about the difference between good graffiti (i had decided good graffiti is graffiti that is pretty and pleasing to the eye) and bad graffiti (shitty looking half ass shit. yes, those probably were my exact words at the age of 6!) so to demonstrate to my audience, i drew a picture of a lady as well as i could on one side of my closet door. it was pretty, dammit! after i finished that, i drew something ugly on the other side of the closet. i think i just made up random shit. or did i use stickers? or maybe stamps? i'm not sure what i had decided bad looked liked or how i did decided to depict it but whatever i did ended up rubbing off the brown varnish off the door as a result.

needless to say, my mom was pissed! and it was much, much harder to explain the difference to a real audience. but i still feel the same way and will always have a soft spot for graffiti and street art.
