marked

got it!

the key

A lot of my friends and (very wonderful and accepting) parents already know, but last Sunday I GOT A TATTOO. It was a very strange experience - definitely a tad painful, but I didn't cry... so not too bad? For a very long time I was extremely sure I'd never get a tattoo, but for about a year now I have been considering one, and I finally took the plunge.

I designed it myself - it's based on a key that goes to my bedroom in my parent's house, which I love very much. It's a wonderful house, and I wanted something very personal. SO VOILA. It's finally healing, lots of gross peely skin.

  1. Very cool tattoo. I think the best ones are those that people design themselves -- so it's not only beautiful but has a history and meaning. I wanted to get something when I was in college at NYU, but I never could settle on a design.
    Props for rockin it out.
