I'm in love....

...with getting tattoos. When I first started out on my inking journey, I only thought that I would have one maybe two & that's it. I got my most recent one two days ago. The one before that, two weeks ago. LOL. I have seven: 4 on my back, 2 on my hips, and 1 on my rib cage. My first one stung like a cat scratch while I was getting it, but after that I got used to the pain. I have a high tolerance level for pain anyway, so getting tatted up really isn't that painful for me. This is somewhat of a big accomplishment because when I was little, I was deathly afraid of needles (bad experience @ the pediatrician's office). Involuntarily pain, I'm not cool with at all; but the stuff I consent to, is a different story. My sister got really mad with me because I fussed her out for getting a tattoo just cuz "she didn't want to have an odd number on her body". What the hell to I do when I get back over the the East Coast? Get a tattoo on my left hip bone so that I wouldn't have an odd # of tats & to even my hips out. LMAO. Needless to say she cussed me out quite nicely. But as I was saying, I'm in love with getting tattoos...I plan on getting up to 12, so I just have five more to go. I think that I've reached my limit for right now though just cuz I find it pretty interesting to take care of two relatively new tattoos. In all actuality, now that I have seven I'm going to hold off on tattoos for a while. Seven is my favorite number, plus I can't think of anything else to get inked into my skin.

All of my tattoos have significant meanings to them, and I don't believe in wearing something on your body permanently if there was no thought behind it.

My tattoo story:
1)On my upper back right side. A purple long-stemmed rose curled in a circle with the words "Designed by God" inside
2)A chinese symbol on the lower back that means sincerity
3)Boxing gloves surrounging the chinese symbol on the lower back; Whatever life decides to dish my way I refuse to let it get me down & if I have to fight for it, I will.
4)The word "Uzuri" on my right hip bone that means beauty in swahili
5)on the upper back left side. Profile of a lion's head. It's a memorial tattoo for one of my uncles
6)The word "Naima" on my left hip bone that means joy or ecstacy in swahili. It also could be the name of a girl; which I noticed after it was inked in my skin, but I really enjoy its meaning so it's staying there for life
7)A breast cancer awareness ribbon on my right side. Starts around the middle of the bra band line and extends down my ribcage.
