jacked up and good to go.
i got a tattoo.
yes, you read that right: i got a tattoo. back in august, i went with my friend a.j. to fuzion ink in norfolk, va. to set up his tattoo appointment and i decided that i might as well get one too. so it was a nice little birthday present to myself.
i’ve always wanted a tattoo [ just like i've always wanted my ears gauged and a ton of piercings and hair that i can actually do things with] so i finally went through with it and got some ink.
fresh ink. right after i got it.
figuring out what i wanted was a really tough choice too. there are a lot of things that i wanted to get, that i’m sure i’ll get later on in life, but i wanted something fun and something that is kind of sweet to look at too. it seriously took me like a week to figure out what i wanted. i finally narrowed it down to two choices: some album art from mae. that has always meant a lot to me and the terran symbol from starcraft. after days of careful deliberation, i decided on the terran symbol.
it turned out wonderfully.
i had it done about a week or two ago [on sept. 9th] and after a week, it is almost done peeling/scabbing/looking disgusting. the actual process of getting it done kind of hurt [really hurt] but only the shading. the outline didn’t hurt hardly at all but when he started shading with that devil device with the four needles, i about punched him because it hurt so bad.
it only took about an hour and a half and it cost me altogether about $190.
so i’m really happy with my life now.
