It also showed me that there are so many snitches out there but they will get taken care of. sence i have started writin i have met tons of new people and made lots of friends and graffiti has helped alot i am deff alot more in shape with that whole havin to run from the cops all the time. I will never stop ill paint till the day i die!

Graffiti had almost ruined my life. It's a long story, some of you know it, some of you don't but to put a long story short, I'm a lucky bastard. I almost came with in 2 felonies, that would have been two strikes, I wouldn't have been able to get a job, I wouldn't have been able to get accepted to a decent college (let alone pay for it), I would have become a burnout if it wasn't for a sheer stroke of luck. It's all fun and games until you and your buddy are face to face with five squad cars and your wrists constricted by the cold metal of a pair of menacing handcuffs. You try and justify your actions by saying; "It's just art" or "It makes the blank, boring, walls look better" or even "It's a part of the game." You convince yourself that its not that bad. I know this, that's how I use to be. But just remember; one slip up, one not-so-chill spot could add up to a lot down the road.
Hmm..Well, I made alot of eneimes, but even more friends through being a writer. As a "goth kid", alot of people didn't talk to me. But since I'm a writer, I alk to alot of gangsters and other people I wouldn;t usually ever talk to. Luckily, my girlfriend, who I love unconditionally, supports my graffiti. She loved the blackbook piece I did for her. <3 My mom, as an artist herself, loves it. She hates the danger and that I'm breaking the law, and she tells me not to. However, she's seen my blackbooks and stuff, and she loves it. I don't talk to my dad about alot. No school problems. As I go to a highschool for the arts, they LOVE it. I'd say the most problems I get aren't from my hobbies, but from my religion. As a wiccan, I get alot of shit. All I get from graff that's negative is beef with a few immature writers.
Change religion? Problem for me is got caught racking. (Yea, I'm stupid) But, got away with just small fine.
TRue^^ me too. There are no doubt negative parts though. I just got arrested and I have a court date on the 9th for graffiti.
That's why I am hoping my "first time I get caught I quit" rule will save me...maybe not. Cause I gave up long ago on the idea that I am never going to get caught, just hope I can minimize damages when I do.
ive met some of my best friends through graffiti, ive had some of my best times doing graffiti, ive made memories ill never forget. being put in jail and having my house raided, to me, was worth the amazing people ive met. it sounds lame, but without graffiti i would never have met the amazing people i have, and i dont regret anything ive done.
yeah foo' dont bring ID and dont get fingerprinted and they wont know the difference. but then again if your getting printed obviously your lie didnt work but i lie about my name all the time.
