My little Carat

Category: Uncategorized

Losing Drew (otherwise affectionately known as “Bambi”) in July was in the top 3 worst things I’ve gone through, no hyperbole. I am still grieving her every day, processing the trauma, trying to get to the point where I can remember her neurotic antics and smile instead of crying my face off. Getting this memorial tattoo tonight by my favorite and most trusted tattoo artist Erin Hosfield at Kyklops was pure catharsis – yes, I’m sitting here crying over it but it’s ok because this is what healing feels like and now I have this beautiful portrait of Bambi’s face that I can take with me everywhere.

Bambi was a Carat – a fan of the kpop group Seventeen, so I knew I wanted their lightstick incorporated somehow. Erin brought it to life for me and I am so grateful.

Bambi was my best friend and I have sort of been floating through life without her. This makes me feel a bit more anchored. ❤️‍🩹 (Not gonna lie, though – my first instinct was to come home and show it to her 🥹.)

(Her Seventeen bias was The8, btw 😊.)

Eternally grateful to Erin at Kyklops. This means so much to me.

We’re going to see Seventeen in two weeks and I’m really stoked to be around other Carats during this dumb time of sadness.

Part of me wishes I hadn’t gotten so attached to her but what if that would have made her life not as happy.
