The Limit Does Not Exist.

Would like to apologize for my absence. Partly due to being exceptionally busy - travelling to Waterloo to see friends (twice), going to NYC with family, packing to move back to school and trying to spend every last moment at home with friends, before I have to leave. The other reason is a bit of disillusionment with blogging, and how it's warped my shopping habits. Although with going back to school next week, a student budget of pretty much zero for shopping should sort that right out.


Got tatted today, the first of many to come. The symbol is called a lemniscate; it stands for infinity. In calculus, the lemniscate is often used to denote that the limit of an function is infinite or boundless - in other words, the limit does not exist.

It's a philosophy I hope to incorporate into my life more often heading into my third year of University. Last year was a bit of a train wreck for me, both academically and emotionally and I'm hoping to make a lot of changes. Now this symbol is here to remind me that Impossible Is Nothing, to always believe in my abilities and the bigger, better things on the horizon.

  4. Totally feel you on blogging warping the shopping habits. Having a job now only makes the habit worse!

  6. @Joycee Felt like a tiny saw was ripping through my skin for 5 minutes. You can decide if you think that hurts, lol.

    But I think as long as it's a small tattoo it should be fine. If it's large and it takes a long time or it's over the bone, I could see how that'd be really painful.
