got my third tattoo done, but totally different to what i was going to get.
its on my sternum, of a heart with pins sticking out of it (a drawing by Tim Burton)
pain factor was a little higher then my other tattoos, but nothing too extreme.
im now wishing i had got it done bigger.

now im thinking of what to get for my fourth tattoo.

an update on the penis pericing.
lol it got rejected, an they had to cut it out. so the bottom of knob can pull backwards because of how they cut it open.
looks even worse than before.

Nice one, I know that picture.
But how old are you? Are you really doing your HSC in 2010?.. or was it a 2001 typo...

i presume youre talking about a piercing...

anyways, there is a high chance of all piercngs getting infected, especially if one doesnt look after it properly
its a foreign object in your body. your body will wantto reject it, hence the infection.
as for looking after a piercing, its easy. seasaly soaks twice day = seasalt or rock salt, mixed with warm water, and soak the piercing in it.
like, cotton wool, placed in the salty water and place the cotton wool on the piercing.
as for mouth piercings - non-alcoholic mouthrinse stuff.

and if said piercing gets infected, just baby, two-three soaks a day, try not to hit it, dont play with it, dont change the jewellry till advised etc.

go get a piercing.
its not that scary.

im just pissed i cant get another lip piercing whilest im here.

yeah, i'm with ^
despite the fact that you're bound to freak out just before you get pierced, it only hurts for a little while (depending on where you get done)..as long as you're happy with where you got it done and you keep it clean, then you should be fine and be able to keep it for ages (or as long as you want it anyway)


i cant wait to buy new jewellry :D

soph: just because you only just got one, or some other reason?

I'm getting on on my shoulder and back soonish, hopefully. I'm looking for an apartmen though so $$ is scarce at the moment. And I'll probably pass out or bait or something embarrassing in front of the scary tattoo people :p

I still have my belly ring alby, it has migrated a fair bit though so I might end up losing it. It seemed to be healed last week and now all of a sudden it has gone all red and pissed off looking again.

I would not get any piercings except maybe my nose, if I ever drift into a rebellious phase... as for tattoos, a small one somewhere not too visible might appeal to me... of something pretty like a horse or a phoenix or a mermaid... or an inspirational word or quote I have not yet come across in my travels. :p
