Confession Ideas. (3)

1.  My first confession is one to do with my critical self.  There are a few things about myself I do not like.  A few being my confidence, my self image, my ability to grow, judgement and more as well.  I want to be able to face the facts, get it all out on the table and work on each one of these issues I have with myself in order to improve on myself and become the person I want to be.  One thing I do not like is my recent habit to smoke cigarettes.  It deals with my issues of addiction and essentially hurting myself when I am clearly aware of what I am doing.  So for this topic I have two ideas; I either want to use my own arm as a canvas and use sharpie to draw a cigarette with smoke filled with these problems of my own, depicted by pictures and words.  Having it on my arm for a few days will force me to constantly look and remind myself of improvement opportunities.  Otherwise, I want to do something with cigarettes themselves and do some kind of textured art.  Just to be clear, I see the cigarettes as a symbol for these entities as a whole, hence the emphasis.  
2.  Another confession I have is the feeling of invisibility I sometimes posses around my friends.  I put myself down a lot and feel self conscious due to the beauty I feel they physically hold above me.  I want to stop putting emphasis on this topic of physicality and being sucked into society's brainwash of the "pretty girls".  I have an idea of a sculpture for this one.  I don't want to give away too much but I like the idea of barbies, who posses unrealistic body proportions and features as society's ideal beaut.  
3.  The last confession I would want to discuss is my attitude towards my father.  Sometimes he really gets on my nerves and I unnecessarily snap and give rude vibes I always regret afterwords.  It is a lot better now that I do not live at home, but sometimes it happens when I go home and I really want to stop.  He is an amazing man and I love my father so much, I wish he knew how I felt about these outrages of mine and how I truly feel about him.  I am going to have to dig deep about this one so I'm not sure yet how I would represent this confession.  If I choose to do this one, I will hopefully have the courage to show my dad.
