This weekend i got my birthday persent!! even thoguh my birthday isn't untill March 2nd this weekend was sorta a window of opotunity to actually get my present.
You see for as long as i could remember i always wanted to go sky diving and do many other crazy things like bungee jumping,scuba diving, and rock climing :P..but sky diving more so than anything else. So after asking for years and years my parents agreed that for my 18th birthday they would pay for me to go sky diving, but they always figured that i would grow out of it or change my mind by the time i actually was 18...but i didn't. Though after a lot of thought on my part i realized that i would rather have something more memorable for my 18th birthday present, and not just a memory plus i didn't want to drain my parents of $300 either. So i decided to trade in the promise of a sky diving experience for the promise of a tattoo!!
After getting permission from my parents i jumped online and did some research and found out that you have to wait 2 weeks after getting a tattoo to go swimming...which is a problem since im in lifeguard training. so i could either have gotten it this weekend or wait untill summer....and i couldn't wait that long...so my mom took me and my best friend to the tattoo parlor that i had been too previously to scope out and talk to the tattoo artist. I wanted a tattoo of an image that i found online of a white tiger so Scott(the tattoo artist) agree to draw out the image for me! ^_^ So when we got there we printed the image and he made a quick sketch, than reduced the size of it, than made some modifications, than made the actual stencil. now all this took about an hour so whileme,my mom and my friend were all waiting we were looking at the tattoo samples that were in the lobby and there were A TON! and while my mom was looking at some of them she just randomly comes out and says " you know, maybe i'll get one too." i was like "OMG! are you serious?!" and yeah she was... so she found an image that she liked, a little butterfly like thing, and so while i was waiting for scott to finish up the stencil.. my mom went into one of the tattooing rooms and another artist got started on her tattoo. When scott was finished with the sketch it was my turn. i saw my mom on the way back to scott's room and she said that it didn't hurt all that bad....SHE LIED! it did..-.-...but i survived and now i have the tattoo that i wanted!yeah! ^_^
