Memoirs of a Japanese War Bride Art print From 1944 to the early 50’s thousands of Japanese women fell in love with servicemen, married and started new lives in alien countries. / It must have been an incredible struggle to leave their extended families, friends, country and merge into new cultures. This started out as a full length Geisha dancing but somewhere along the way this concept just grew of it’s own accord, funny how that happens;) / Mixed Media. Available as a print and card / Image copyright © 2008 Shanina Conway. / Copying and displaying or redistribution of this image without permission from the artist is strictly prohibited.

Today...

I’ve just got back from taking the dogs for a run along this beach here, (Piha Beach): You can see one of my dog’s asses on this shot here: And here’s another shot: Now I’m back at home for a while where I’m allowed to have tea before I go back to the loony bin to eat their over-processed, watered down shit. :-) I don’t get it, I’m supposed to be “Voluntarily” admitted to the hospital and relatively free to come and go, but if I abscond, they serve a warrant on me and have me arrested, so does that mean I’m voluntary or not? When I asked them they just told me I’m fine as long as I’m back at the hospital for the reported time… I wonder if this stint inside is going down on my records for future employers to be able to look up? It feels like I’m never gonna get out again… I thought I was only going to be inside for a weekend…

It feels weird being happy for no reason. Oh for ECT and the artificial elevation in mood it produces, I feel kinda stoned without taking drugs, every time I go for ECT I get a huge panic attack right when they put the oxygen mask over my face, the next thing I know it’s all over and I’m awake and starving! Today would be the first day of treatment I’ve noticed a difference, I’ve even been looking at online Resume Makers and thinking about going back to work some time in the foreseeable future. I know this journal entry is boring but I’ve been asked to log my progress and keep a record of things, so here I go. The only downfall to the ECT is acute memory loss, a psychologist gave me a memory test today and I scored shocking! It’s a bit like having been drunk and getting complete memory blanks, but that should improve with time – I hope!!!

I want to create a fictional character that comes across as completely real and believable. This is my first attempt at giving her a history. Stealing parts of myself, and my past, and filling in the gaps where required.

Today may not be such a great day for ECT, for one, I’ve had no sleep all night and secondly, I forgot that I wasn’t supposed to be drinking or eating and I’ve been guzzling away on water none stop. Some Redbubbler also drew my attention to a COMMENT I made five months ago! I can’t believe I was both that stupid and that spontaneous, but alas, my avatar is right there next to the comment so I can only assume I’m as guilty as charged… No wonder they fucking Sectioned me and booked me in for ECT… If it wasn’t so embarrassing and self degrading it’d be funny. Ah screw it. It is funny In a historical kind of way.

I’ve just recently joined RedBubble. Today actually. I was over at ImageKind, but I didn’t like the layout there, nor the one at DeviantArt. Also, the lack of community at ImageKind made me dislike it, and all the different types of uploads on DA made it feel too chaotic for me. So I’m here to test things out, though I have a feeling I’m going to like it.

The hospital needed my bed for an urgent overnighter so they sent me home for the night, somehow, a whole day and night have passed me by with meals in between and I can’t remember having taken them??? Weird… I have two more ECT sessions to go before they give me an assessment and decide what to do from there, as I understood it, ECT meant a fast-track way of getting out of here and getting home, but I just don’t know what’s bullshit and what’s real any more, I think I’m becoming institutionalized, just another loon statistic on the record to prod, poke and explore pouring medication into, if I felt the whole experience was inspiring or stimulating enough, I’d turn it into a poem, but instead if feels like I’m a participant in some kind of market research study to survey and collect information on. I’m just another number and I’ve lost another day. Weird. I think I need to pick a fight with someone to feel the old adrenalin surging through my veins again, but with each ECT treatment, the subsequent adrenalin surge needs to be more extreme. This is therefore an open invitation for you to abuse the living shit out of me, which doesn’t happen too often so take advantage of it. Any takers? One day I’ll find a way to write about this whole loony bin experience so that it sounds entertaining… tick tick tick tick BOOM!
