Truth. I literally slept through my 8 hour back piece, and cried through every sitting for a big sugar skull on my side. Most painful tattoo experience. I think the runner up would be the foot, oddly.

In regard to getting a tattoo draw up and then taking it as reference... No. That art is the property of the artist until it's drilled into your skin forever. They might sell it to you for a ****load of money, though.

Cherry blossom tree on the side and on the back is soooo played out. I got one on my back four years ago and since then it's all I friggin' see lol

I'm *heavily* tattooed and can honestly say that the idea will come to you if don't try too hard to find it. My sleeve literally appeared on my arm in a dream, and I made the appointment the next day.

I just turned 24 a month ago and I'm a little freaked out by fitting into that age group, but you can add me :P

I've done it. I wouldn't recommend it :-/

I know. I'm a cheater. Used to be vegan and have a little self hating voice in my brain that says I'm a quitter, but whatever. There are no rules in life and as far as I'm concerned, the boundaries of dietary "realms" are fluid. I don't eat animals with legs? It's an infrequent indulgence so I tend to just tell people I'm…

I totally forgot about cottage cheese! With fresh pineapple and strawberries... YUM. I've never had a protein shake but I'm open to it. What's the best brand out there?
