I love the meaning behind the lighthouse and ship.

I am planning to get an octopus but haven't decided WHERE. I want it large enough so it will be realistic (nothing cartoon-y). Do you have an updated picture of your octo?<br /><br />My email: girlfantastic15@hotmail.com<br /><br />Thanks!!

One is a cross ...Right now I only have two tattoos. One is a cross on my left hand that I got when I was sixteen or seventeen. I used to draw it on there every day, to show that although so many of my friends and schoolmates were going through that stage where they were unsure about God and their religion, I knew what I believed and wasn't going to be swayed. It was my silent reassurance. So one day I was with a friend of mine at a friend of <i>theirs</i> house, and he did tattoos, so I figured, why not? And got it done for nothing.<br /><br />My second tattoo is pretty new still; I got it around May of this year. It's a quote on my left forearm that says <i>This too shall pass.</i> It's something I've wanted for years; for whenever something really gets to me and I've got my head in my hands, it's directly in my line of sight, going the same way my eyes are reading. It's my end-all-be-all motto I guess; that everything that happens will eventually blow over, just as they've always done before. It's how I remember that I will always emerge from everything. :)<br /><br />My next tattoo is supposed to be a sidepiece of sorts; starting on my right hip and making it's way up to just under my armpit. It's a boombox with assorted "stickers" on it (things that I truly love; zebras, sharks, Hello Kitty, lightening bolts, etc. designed to look like random stickers on the boombox), with a stanza of music flowing out of the speakers and winding up my side. I'm just nervous about getting it because I haven't found anyone with a portfolio that really impresses me. This project is too important to me to just leave to anyone, you know what I mean?<br />Sometime between then and now, I plan to get a shark and an octopus <i>somewhere</i>; either on my lower legs or my left side. That's why I love your sleeve so much; I've always had a fascination with marine animals of all sorts; sharks and octopi have always been my favorite. :)<br /><br />Oh my gosh! I'm sorry this is like a million pages long!Alyssahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16050885416518262068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-47407227004171316092009-12-27T13:11:40.696-06:002009-12-27T13:11:40.696-06:00aw thank you so much! :D and yea totally, a lot of...aw thank you so much! :D and yea totally, a lot of them are from just me saving them on my computer for inspiration for years, but i peep over at fuckyeahtattoos.tumblr.com every day! its overflowing with them! :Dkaelah beauregardehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02296368974798527373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-85780348106222310502009-12-27T04:57:52.408-06:002009-12-27T04:57:52.408-06:00all of your tattoos are beautiful! i want to be a ...all of your tattoos are beautiful! i want to be a tattoo artist and yours are so inspiring, really! also i love all of your previous tattoo tuesdays, can i ask where you find some of the images for them? i love spending ages browsing through designs ^_^fashionjunkiexxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17405064790984241850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-47954212115818843282009-12-24T17:31:36.131-06:002009-12-24T17:31:36.131-06:00ive always been a fan of his :Dive always been a fan of his :Dkaelah beauregardehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02296368974798527373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-58453201619451735452009-12-24T17:13:18.217-06:002009-12-24T17:13:18.217-06:00oh i love Kurt Halsey. i got really into his work ...oh i love Kurt Halsey. i got really into his work when i was 16/17. i totally forgot about him until i saw this post!keeshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04524649075491026242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-77674447171712838422009-12-22T23:45:05.691-06:002009-12-22T23:45:05.691-06:00very cool! i'd love to see pictures if you eve...very cool! i'd love to see pictures if you ever post them! :D thanks!kaelah beauregardehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02296368974798527373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-47153919462884089922009-12-22T23:13:06.260-06:002009-12-22T23:13:06.260-06:00my friend has a huge pirate ship along her entire ...my friend has a huge pirate ship along her entire left side and big bright colored jellyfish on the opposite hip and onto her stomach. the style is very similar to your ship and octopus. i like!melindahttp://wix.com/melindanelson/photonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-85597691286404346222009-12-22T22:44:47.866-06:002009-12-22T22:44:47.866-06:00i really love the meaning of the ohm one! thats br...i really love the meaning of the ohm one! thats brilliant, emilie!kaelah beauregardehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02296368974798527373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-84819374219993201442009-12-22T20:57:48.783-06:002009-12-22T20:57:48.783-06:00I only have 3 so far, but I want more!

It means peace, love and happiness. I have a swallow on my wrist to symbolize freedom (just like yours! ha!). And last, I have the ohm symbol on my ankle, because I really love the meaning of the mantra. I got it on my ankle because I have my arthritis the worst in that ankle and it reminds me to be calm about it and not stress about it too much, because I can't control it. It reminds me to accept the pain better, I guess you could say.Emilie Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15711534276142412712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-51143287626769543742009-12-22T20:52:19.482-06:002009-12-22T20:52:19.482-06:00Marissa: thank you! :D thats very kind of you <...Marissa: thank you! :D thats very kind of you <3<br /><br />Seletha: those sound awesome :)<br /><br />Jefferlee: each session varies. sometimes i sit for 2 hours, sometimes i sit for 6. and i had a different artist for my left sleeve than for my right. the artist i have now like i said, is a friend of my best friend so he cuts me a great deal. rather than being $50-75 an hour, he'll charge me about $25 or so. :) but price = quality so i try to keep that in mind. i never go for a "cheap" tattookaelah beauregardehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02296368974798527373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-53515268752216691832009-12-22T20:39:26.904-06:002009-12-22T20:39:26.904-06:00May I ask you how much each session has cost you?May I ask you how much each session has cost you?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-74324786781980201262009-12-22T20:31:50.244-06:002009-12-22T20:31:50.244-06:00I have a few as well.

I guess it's a nice reminder of the weird little girl I was at the time and the fact that I REALLY probably needed therapy for the stuff I was going through. It's a reminder that I've definitely been through worse.<br /><br />2nd, I got 2 flowers, as a tribute to my mom who passed when I was 14... I'm actually getting them covered up soon because the guy did a horrible job. Something beachy because that's something my mom and I had in common. I actually had my boyfriend draw me out some things and he drew me a hammer head shark fighting a squid, I really hope to get that started soon.<br /><br />3rd, I got stars on my ankle. Common, but I totally love them.<br /><br />4th, this past April my boyfriend and I celebrated our 4th anniversary by getting matching swallows. Mine is in my left hip with half of a heart in its mouth and his is on his right and the 2 broken hearts match up if you put them together. We plan on getting something added to it every year. It's by far my favorite and I know you're not supposed to get tattoos with your sig. other, but I don't regret it one bit.Selethanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-19649289013120106422009-12-22T20:28:46.587-06:002009-12-22T20:28:46.587-06:00you have amazing art all over your body. it's ...you have amazing art all over your body. it's so inspiring! they all look really good, but the chest piece is my favorite!Marissanoreply@blogger.com
