Default New tattoo!!!!!

Hey everyone!

Im so pumped! Im getting a new tattoo!!!
....this one will be the second visible one on my body!
Im so pumped!

Im getting a monarch on my wrist...and I think the words "I'm Okay" under it.
I'll tell you why I chose a monarch.
When I was younger, I went to a zoo, and they had a butterfly exhibition. This room was FILLED with all of these beautiful butterflies, and a monarch landed on my hand. Ever since then, I've loved monarchs...and all butterflies.

SO....does anybody else have any interesting tattoos, or piercings?

oooooo.i looooveee butterflies!!! monarachs are probably my favourite. over the summer, we found some milkweed plants, and we took some of the caterpillars and put them into like those plastic bug catcher houses, and we watch them as they went from a fat catter, to a chysallis, to a beautiful butterfly. then we let them go.....it was amazing.

i dont have any tattoos, but i think some day i will get one, but it has to be something special and have meaning. i wouldnt get one to just get one. it has to have a meaning behind it. but i love the idea of yours!!

Just remember that you have to live with it all your life and you don't know yet what you may want to do in the future. The typical person changes careers several times in their life. One day you may spark a passion for investment or crime investigation and find those tats a more of a millstone than a pleasure. Think it through carefully, I havea couple of younger gen family members who have probably locked themselves out of a host of opportunities due to heavy, visible tattooing.

I'm pretty sure tattoo artists call ones like that "jobstoppers."
Once you become an established graphic artist, alternative beautician, or another career that would be very accepting of visible tattoos, then it would be a better decision. But for now, you might want to keep your butterflies on your torso where you can easily cover up.
A monarch sounds gorgeous, though. I don't have any tats because there's not a single design in the whole world that I could imagine having on my body for the rest of my life. As for piercings, I have two holes in each ear (and some people think THAT'S risqué!) I'm not likely to get more. I'm just a bit of a fuddy-duddy.

TATTOOS and piercings are fun! I love all of my tattoos.
Most of them are hidden....I have less piercings now than I did....some are also hidden...hehehehe.

I've got my nose done, my ears. I had my tounge, navel, eyebrow, chin, lip...and two nipples...among others....

My tattoo on my neck is a triquetra....its my favourite! I dont know if any of you have seen the Television show Charmed....thats the sumbol on the front of their "book of shadows"
just google it....its pretty. its on the back of my neck!
