My Buddha: first tattoo. I go to a strict Catholic high school, this is to remind myself there is more to peace of mind than basing one’s beliefs on one religion.

I love Japan and it’s culture. After a recent visit I decided on this tattoo.

I finally did one of the most impossible things I thought I’d never do. I didnt pussy out and get a small one but i went for the one thing I envisioned the longest and I must admit, it hurt like i’ve never hurt before, physically anyways. I waited months for my appointment but damn tho, it came out pretty nice. Honestly tho, after everything thats happened, I just can’t believe that I’m doing this or that yeah I did it. I felt like if I didnt do it now, then when, and that if I kept putting it off, I’d never do it and so I did and well, all i could say is wow. it still trips me out that i did it. It means the world to me because I’ve thought about this for a long while now and it wasnt exactly what I envisioned but it sure comes close to beauty. The cherry blossoms are to appreciate the beauty of life and the paper cranes, represent tiny wishes and that if I made just enough wishes, just like if i made a thousand paper cranes, maybe one day my dreams would come true. I was suppose to go through 3 sessions but school wise, I didnt have enough time, so she fit the 3 sessions into one, outlining, shading and color. thats hella beastly, if i say so myself and in all honesty all i can say, is that this is one painful beauty.
