adventure to the hecker store

so! me and my younger sister Marryn were told to to run to the hecker store to buy a two liter bottle of mt.dew. so me and marryn are like okay lets role out. i begin to walk up the street and my sis being lazy ass hell said heyyy wait lets take the motor scooter. well if u saw my sis she is 5 10 511 and shes twelve..and me at 5 7. we were not going to fit on that scooter, but when there is a will there is a way. so they we are riding down hecker streets like true gangstas. Cars and trucks were honking and laughing at us but we were not embarrassed. we put on quite an excellent show i would have to say. when we finally pulled up an old man was there on a motor powered wheelchair type deal and when i finally came out he wanted to race us!.......so i said politely ITS ONNN! .We won of course , a fine victory it was. me and marryn hi fived and hugged. god i love my adventures with my sister.

English Permission Letter

Bradford P Nadziejko



Permission Letter


Dear Mr. Nadziejko and fellow classmates, i am asking permission to research and interview my subculture , which is tattoo and piercing. i will be visiting and observing at Internal Ink in Hecker, IL, and interviewing people with tattoos and their experiences.i will be finding out the history on tattoos, also ill be watching a show called Taboo. I hear it is very interesting! i will have to look into some tattoo magazines and fins information through them. I can revisit almost everyday because i live walking distance from the site and it fits in with my schedule i will be covering what kind of work is done there, the environment, and history of the site. i will also go into the history of tattoos and piercing, like in different places in the world. i will compare of tattoos here i america maybe some sort of taboo or someone trying to be different where as i other parts of the world tattoo and piercing are a symbol of what tribe your in or where your from, what you have been through. I personally have a few piercing of my own and i think its pretty awesome! I am looking to get at tattoo on my foot here soon. I have a great interest for this subculture and i am excited to spend time with the artists and get to know the history/fun facts on tattoos/piercings. Thank you and i hope you enjoy my paper as much as i will enjoy writing it.
