Entry #8. Tattoos.

So, as mentioned previously, I like tattoos. I have some myself, including an expansive chest piece, and I find well done ones beautiful. For me, it's an expression of myself. Some are representations of family members, such as my Pokemon tattoo, others are reminders to myself such as my wrists and chest piece. Tattoos, like any other thing, can be used positively or negatively, such as references to illegal activities or inappropriate content. However, I know I'll continue getting tattoos. I plan on getting my left calf completely done cartoon characters representing family members. So far I have Pikachu for my brother, next is Curious George for my grandma (see image 1), then Roo from Winnie the Pooh for my dad (see image 2), then Mr. Peanut for my sister (see image 3), then a librarian character from a book I used to read with my mom as a kid (see image 4). Additionally I'd love to get my left arm to have a world map sleeve, then wherever I go, I pinpoint it on my arm. As my life is a constant work in progress, I think it would be interesting to have a tattoo that represents that. Regardless of what other people think, I will continue to get tattoos and they will be an important factor of my life.
