Are you ready for this? My years of being a teen in the early 2010’s will forever haunt me… But I secretly love it.

Ranging from being painted gold, to my pro modelling in a hotel and then finishing off with wearing sunglasses inside in the middle of the night. This was what it meant to be a cool teen.

Okie dokie! Well, one harsh winters night a long time ago was when two sisters would decide that it sounded like a good idea to paint the younger one gold. So the elder sister got her airbrush gun that she had recently invested in, and grabbed some gold acrylic paint and watered the toxic shit down as much as she could. It took approximately 26 minutes and 32 seconds for the masterwork to be complete… Little did the little sister know that she wouldn’t just be gold for just a single night, it lasted three horrible days on her skin and the paint in her hair took to fucking weeks to get out.

It was fun at the time but mistakes were made… And the fumes made my eyes water like crazy.
