ok so my first one like sucked ass. lesson learned, never get a tattoo by an aprentice in their living room on their couch. it will not turn ok! but i got a new one last night, by a profesional in a profesional studio by Kevin. he is an awesome dude who works at Fyre Body Arts. they are awesome and Kevin is awesome. i wouldnt never trust anyone else to pierce or permenetly mark my body. ive been going there for 2 years with my friends and whatnot but i got my bellybotton pierced there 3 weeks ago by Sara (yet another awesome person from Fyre) and then last night i finaly got my first real tattoo from them. it is like a blood red rose and like bat-ish wings and a quote going down between the wings "courage is not the absence of fear but simply moving on with dignity despite that fear". its on my wrist/forearm
