But because I’m trying to stick to black & white cartoon designs, that would be hard. I really really love these, but most I would not get as they are. It probably won’t happen for a while, but it’s one I’ve been wanting. Logos for my all-time favorite bands, music notes, or something. I also plan to get a quarter sleeve or something of music. They will both be tattooed on top of veins that go straight to my heart. They will be on opposite sides of my leg, just above my ankle. One day I want to have built an anklet of these little smiley faces, but for now, I’m content with just my two best friends. It’s a reminder that I am not alone, there’s more to life than fear, depression and anxiety, and I always have cheerleaders. I’m going to get tattoos of my best friends’ smiley faces, because they always make me smile when I’m down. The one on the right is one I asked Peep to draw for me. I’m so excited!!! The one on the left is the one that Drummer Boy drew on me one day.
FIREFLY I AM A LEAF ON THE WIND TATTOO SKIN
The smiley faces!! These two are going to be in my skin on next Tuesday. It’s sort of like I take off the outer layer and weird white bits to remind me to let go of the problems, because the sweet stuff is on it’s way. When I’m stressed or anxious or depressed, I peel oranges. Peeling oranges is a weird stress reliever for me. So I want something to remind me that I am not alone and there’s a place I can go where I’m always safe, even if it isn’t real.ĩ. oops.) Anyway, books are an escape for me. (Now that I’m thinking about it, that’s probably why I’m supposed to wear glasses now……. I would even build my own blanket forts and such to read in, even though they were exceedingly uncomfortable and had low light. I put my name in twice, within about two weeks.

There used to be a yearly reading competition at my library, where for every 20 hours that you read, you would get a slip of paper with your name in a bucket and the opportunity to win something. I have this thing about trying to hold on to memories… And that was one of my best.Ĩ.

So I’m glad that it wasn’t my first tattoo, because it was a simple memory, but I still want to get it one day. I can honestly say that it was the first birthday party that checked both of the boxes: I actually wanted to attend, and I actually had fun. This particular one was almost my first, to represent the first teenage party I went to. Rollerskating has always been fun for me, even though wheeled-clunkers does not help my klutzyness. I always preferred the prequels, although I’ve grown to enjoy all of them.ħ. I especially liked the Ewoks, and would always bring my stuffed teddy bear down to watch with me when we watched episode VI. I want a Star Wars tattoo!! My childhood, or at least what I remember of it, was filled with Star Wars. So this speaks to me of calm in the midst of calamity.Ħ. I draw triangles on homework a lot, and sometimes when I’m anxious. So I thought it was a beautiful reference and really awesome combination.ĥ. Wash likes to say, “I am a leaf on the wind, watch how I soar…” When he’s getting anxious about flying Serenity, their ship. Joy is something that everyone could use a bit more of. Sign language is something that I’ve always loved and wanted to learn. Maybe get matching ones with a friend or something. I really want a barcode for spicy nacho doritos. My sugar glider scratched me, and using the shape of the scar, I was able to get a feel for their paw shapes. I’m currently planning for all of my tattoos to be cartoony, because that’s something I’ve always been passionate about.ġ. Something Star Wars, doesn’t have to be thisĪh.In memory of Wash, I am a leaf on the wind. (I draw on mine and give him outfits and stuff.) Anyway, it was the motive that counted. He is planning to add to his, I am keeping mine the same. Mine is just this little pudgy adorable brontosaurus, and his is a full-color origami stegosaurus. Now, like I said in my last post (TATTOOS!!!!!!!) ours are not the same. Neither of us had gotten one before, and neither of us wanted to die a blank canvas.

We decided that in memory of Wash, our favorite character from Firefly (tv show), we wanted to get dinosaurs. It came from this design, but we tweaked it some.
