“The “spiral pattern” is not normally associated with horror fiction. Usually spiral patterns mark character’s cheeks in Japanese comedy cartoons, representing an effect of warmth. However, I thought it could be used in horror if I drew it a different way. Spirals are one of the popular Japanese patterns from long ago, but I don’t know what the symbol represents.

I think spirals might be symbolic of infinity. The different stages of the spiral (in “Uzumaki”) were definitely inspired from the mysterious novels of H.P. Lovecraft. His expressionism with regard to atmosphere greatly inspires my creative impulse.”

- Junji Ito on the symbolism of spirals in his work (x).

some people are honestly the worst at being friends and they themselves don’t realize it.

i’m really frustrated with a couple of my “friends” (well, one’s not my friend anymore i suppose?) right now so i’m going to go off on a little rant thing.

i knew this girl since sophomore of high school and we used to be really good friends until something happened last year that caused her to be mad at me (i’m guessing since she never actually told me she was?) and i stopped talking to her as much because she became really passive aggressive towards me. she never told me why and i tried to be nice to her but things never got better and she never talked to me about why she was potentially mad and now i found out she deleted me from facebook and i think that’s really stupid because we used to be pretty good friends and i have no idea what brought this on and i feel like i can’t talk to her about it because it’s too late.

and then there’s my other good friend who i hung out with last week and i gave her an idea that would potentially let us go to one of the final’s games, but when she was able to get her hands on a couple of tickets due to my idea she took our other friend instead and her apology was “i’ll buy you something cool.” i don’t need things i just need you to be a good friend.

friends have been treating me rather unkind lately and i can’t wait until i get to see my boyfriend tomorrow because i miss him and i need a hug.
