I DID IT! My first tattoo. I was so scared, but in the end, it hurt a lot less than I feared it would. Digging my nails into my own skin hurt a lot more. Which was why I did it, of course. Right now it's halfway hidden under a transparent foil, but you might get a picture anyway once my roommate comes back and I can have her camera. I'm curious as to how she will react, because she doesn't know yet. Anyway, I need a picture so I can send it to my parents and shock them, because they don't know yet, either. And I need it now, because I want to go home tomorrow, I can't wait until the tattoo is healed and uncovered.
Also, I can't help pimping two cool things:
