What ya got? What ya want?

Hate what you have?

Regrets of the past, memories, meanings?

I have 4, and I want 2 more.

I got a lady bug on my shoulder when I was 17 (my parents have called me 'bug' my entire life).
I got a tribal sun on my shoulder when I was 18 (why, oh why??)
I got my last name done really fancy on my back at 23 for a grad present to myself.
and at age 26 I got my daughters names on the top of my foot.

I want an elaborate phoenix on my back/shoulder to cover the sun.
and I want an hourglass on my wrist.

I hope I'm done then!

    I have a wolf howling at the moon on my right boob lol :) I don't regret it, and I've had it for two years. And I want a tattoo on my lower back that says, "Love Faith Hope" to remind me of being positive everyday. Either that, or "Forever Faithful" haven't quite decided, but haven't got the money yet, so no biggie :)

    1st tat - black panther on my left arm - first tattoo - regretted later
    2nd tat - ivy leaves with my kids names in it - tramp stamp as it is now lovingly called by so many lol
    3 tat is on the top of my right foot (most painful one of the bunch). it's the leukemia ribbon with angel wings in honor of my daughter's fight with the crappy disease
    4th tat is a phoenix, which now covers up the crappy black panther.

    So I've had 4, but you can only see three lol

    I'd like more, but convincing my husband that it's a must have is a bit difficult. :wink:

    I have a star "stitched on to me"
    Stars are for wishes and hopes.
    My nickname is also Stella with my gamer friends (Long story)
    It's always going to be a part of who I am - that's why it's sewn on to me.

    Currently planning a ladybug tattoo.
    My mom has always called me Ladybug.

    I also may want to get one in honor of breast cancer awareness. :)

    I don't think I could ever make up my mind enough to get one! I'm curious though, has weight loss/gain affected yours?

    I don't have one, but I would like an NC State logo on my arm. It took me a long time to decide what I could be happy with permanently, but after 9 years and 2 degrees I am NC State for life (i would have been after the first one).

    When I have kids I would like to get footprints or handprints on my shoulder. Don't know which but one or the other.

    all the tattoos I want are on my profile, under the pictures. I didn't draw any of them, my friend did them all!

    Tribal sun on my shoulder (no *kitten*)
    Lion's head on my chest
    Homemade ex gf name carved into my hip (x-acto blade and school ink)
    and for my finale a capital M branded on my right arm (highschool football stupidity)

    They're not the greatest tats, but they're mine. Everything was done in Highschool. I have visions of getting work done on my sun and lion, both on the left side. I would like to have them cleaned up some and then start working on a chest-half sleeve (not sure if thats what you call it.

    I also want the Louisville Slugger logo tatted on my right inner bicep. I want it to look as if it was burned in. I'm from Louisville, so....

    1. Tribal...thingy...on my lower back when I was 15...I don't see it enough to regret it haha
    2. "Friendship" in Kanji on my ankle
    3. My kids newborn footprints on my thigh with their names
    4. "Love" on my right wrist, "Dream" on my left wrist
    5. "Mother, Daughter, Sister, Family" in kanji up my inner left calf...everything I represent as a living human being
    6. "Never drive faster then your guardian angel can fly" between two angel wings across the top of my back...2 of my best friends died in car accidents so its in rememberance to them AND me and my husband build and race cars on the drag strip so it represents my life.
    7. I have the outline of my sleeve done on the top of my arm...I have to get the shading done and the rest of the flowers under my arm done....

    I have my husbands initials on my hip and he has my name on the back of his arm. Love it. Both were surprises to each other. While he was deployed he had it done and mine when I went on a road trip with my sister. I want a sailor jerry anchor somewhere and my daughter's name some where. Not sure on where yet.

    This is kind of funny, given our conversation about Pooh.

    I have a tribal sun and added a tribal looking phoenix red and black when I lost 100 lbs. I also got a Boston Redsox old school B on my other Bicep. The sun is on the bicep and the phoenix goes from my bicep up and over my shoulder. My trainer has his daugthers footprints from when she was born tattooed on him, which is pretty cool and I think one day when my wife and I have a baby, I am stealing his idea.

    I have 3.. one behind my left ear (shooting little star for a baby I lost), a cute bow on the inside of my left ankle (another baby I lost.. sad story of my life) and a butterfly on my middle back.

    I love all my tattoos. Plan to get more but only in places I can cover them up.

    I have too many to name (12 in all the last count I think). I love tattoos and each one of them tells a little bit about my life at the particular time in which I got it. I have removed one tattoo, but that was more to investigate the procedure of tattoo removal (in the case I change my mind about some of them when I'm older). I have to tell you all make sure you love them, cause taking them off hurts a whole hell of a lot more taking them off then putting them on.

    Most of mine are coverable, so most people give me this huge look of shock when I say I have 12 haha.

    never really had any idea what I wouldn't regret in 40 years, until I saw a diamond drawing tattooed on a ring finger and decided a ruby in similar fashion over my heart would be perfect, my DD is Ruby. so when I hit 10% lost, that's my reward!

    I have a rose on my back (when I was 18 years old) want it GONE. I have a Mickey Mouse on my right hip (WISHED IT WAS WAY SMALLER) and a peguis on my left angle (not sure what I think of this one Then on the top of my right foot I have patience in chinese writing (And confirmed it says that by a chinese man :) )
    I DO LOVE MY FOOT ONE


    I WOULD DO ANYTHING to remove my rose off my back. It was young and foolish and hate it now. Hate the fact that I have it there (Actually on my right shoulder not back) I looked into getting it removed but it leaves such a nasty scar. I haven't looked into getting it covered because if I cover it up it will make it that much larger and do I want that.


    Dont' get me wrong I love other peoples tats. Just wish I thought mine out better.

    -When I was 18, I got a tribal sun my husband designed tattooed on my left shoulder.

    Last year my husband wanted to try tattooing and....

    -I got the majority of a 'cultural tribute' sleeve - right arm. I call it my tapa cloth.
    -Weird floral design on my left thigh (which will be added to in time).
    -Bats near the front of my left shoulder/chest area (think bra strap region)
    -TMI rune on the back of my neck
    -Quote on the inside of my left arm
    -Runes on 3 fingers (plans for 3 more)
    -A bird on my middle finger

    I don't regret any, but some definitely need some extra work on them lol And, I want a LOT more.

    I have a tribal-ish heart drawn by my husband inked on my left ankle when I was 19, two weeks after our marriage.
    Second and third tattoos are little turtles on the inside of my wrists. I had a stone turtle necklace that I wore 24/7 for 7 years, only taking it off when husband left for deployment, as he took it with him and wore it under his uniform. I had the tattoos drawn from this turtle and inked on right before he left for a 6 month deployment cruise.
    Fourth tattoo is a breast cancer awareness ribbon right below the nape of my neck. I don't regret the tattoo, but do regret the placement. It was a spur of a moment, a friend convinced a shop to donate 75% of the proceeds from pink ribbon tattoos and I didn't think the placement through.
    I'd really like to get a full back piece some day of a great fig tree, and that little ribbon is going to look out of place lol.

    I'v got 7.5

    "Scientia" on my left wrist (latin for knowledge or science)
    Outline of the bear from the california that's been stylized a bit on my left pec
    A stylized torrey pine tree down my upper right arm
    A bunch of swirling arrows (represent time) on the top side of my left wrist
    3 paper airplanes on my upper left arm
    Storm clouds with lightning on my right wrist (covering an old poorly done tattoo, hence the 1/2)
    Calvin (from calvin and hobbes) as spaceman spiff on my right pec with a trail of stars and planets going to my right shoulder.

    Don't regret any (except the covered one obviously)

    Not getting anymore probably
