15 Day Challenge [Day 6]


[Day 6] What's something you've always wanted to do but haven't? Why not? 

There's a whole list of things I want to do in my life. 
Some that I've chosen not to do yet. 
Some that just haven't been given the opportunity to happen. 
Some that are about to and some that may never. 
So for now I'll just pick one..... 

I've wanted to get a tattoo for quite some time. 

Now I'm not one of those people to just go out on a limb and do something this permanent to myself 
and be stuck looking back at a sagging fairy or distorted peace-sign
or for heaven's sake, something that gets misspelled!
(and no offense to those with fairies and peace-signs and hearts and rainbows) 

I'm just not that girl. 

I have an idea in my head of what and where I wanted this first (and probably only) permanent mark.
I've let it sit and fester and brew in my head for years. 
Reconsidered it completely at one point,
changed my mind about where it would be.
gone back and forth between color, black&white, white only (it's the big thing you know)
But it's still sticking, still poking out it's head and saying
"this tattoo would mean more than just ink on your skin"

So why haven't I done it by now? 
There's a few reasons
One being that it will be based off something in real life 
and I actually don't have a picture of it anymore (thanks to the hard-drive saga of 2011)
Also because I'm cheap and spending a [couple] hundred dollars on myself isn't something I usually do.
And finally because I'm not sure how my mom would feel about it.
Yes I realize how high school that is because I'm sure she wouldn't disown me or anything dramatic.
But what can I say, I don't like to cause trouble.

Someday I'm sure it'll happen I just can't tell you when for sure.

  1. AH! I feel the same way. I almost got one this past weekend. It's not something I want to do by myself. I want it to have some meaning, you know!
