First tattoo!
(So, I posted this on my website too. I don't care though, I'm posting it here as well)
Well, I did it! I wasn't actually nervous until I got there. My tattoo artist was named George :)
At this point, my stomach is doing major flip flops. I had no idea what is was going to feel like and I was freaking out, haha. The outlining was very painful. My body was twitching and tensing up tons and I scared I was going to move too much and screw something up. (I found out later that George didn't even notice!) For a while, I was thinking that I couldn't possible take it. (It wasn't even that bad, I'm just a baby :P).
Once he started the colour though, the pain seized and then it was just irritating.
After a bit, I felt my right foot going numb. And my body was still twitching randomly. At this point, I am laughing and thinking how funny it is that the first thing people see when they walk in is my ass :P Then, all of sudden George tells me to go take a look. It took about half an hour I think. It turned out beautifully, don't you think?
I am so incredibly pleased. The second we left, I wanted another one. I can't wait to get my next tattoo :D By the way, for those who don't know, it is a calla lily, which represents beauty :)
