To get a tattoo is one on my bucket list. But unfortunately, I can't get a tattoo yet, even though Mom is supporting me to get one. One of the two reasons is that I don't know a tattoo artist here in our small town. I saw some people posting on Facebook showing their tattoo artwork, but they are all men. And this is my second reason, I wish to get a tattoo from a woman, I don't know - I just really don't want to get it from a man. It's like I'm allergic to men, but to be honest, I'm just really shy - such a stup*d reason, I know that (≧▽≦). Lol
I remember during high school, I used to draw something on my fingers to make it look like I had a tattoo. Then there's my best friend Fer, who also draws something on my hand. I let her too because the touch of the pointed pen feels really therapeutic. She draws whatever is on my hand, like a heart, some funny characters, and more. So when I get home, my hand is so full of black ink, sometimes blue, sometimes red. Those are some of my fun and unforgettable memories from high school. (✿‿)
Of course, even during college, I do that too. It's still me who purposely messes with my hand or fingers using pen ink, sometimes I also let my other friends do it for me. It's really super fun. And I think, aside from finding a tattoo really cool, part of me wants to really have a tattoo because it's beautiful. Whatever was inked in a skin, it's still art. And I always appreciate arts because of their beauty, and isn't it really cool that an art, whether in a text or image, can be tattooed on the skin? They can be more meaningful, it depends on how you see it (ﾉﾟ0ﾟ)ﾉ→.
Anyways, my most used drawing on my skin during my teenage years was this design. A rope, aside from being easy to draw, I think this drawing is really cool. And it can symbolize a rope that you can hold on to whenever you want to give up. But back then, I never thought of that this way. I only think about the reason for that today, lol. Thinking more about it, isn't a rope can be used to save someone? With it's long length and it's strength, you can save a lot with it. And I can save my life with it too.
But on a deeper meaning, this can take your life too. But of course, I never think of it that way. People used a rope to hang themselves, but I won't think of this rope that way. It's my surviving rope. And whenever I'm sad, anxious, or in panic, I can hang on in here. I can firmly hold it using two of my hands, and I can survive those sad episodes of my life. Although it can have those negative meanings, well, you only have to be optimistic in life, it's hard, but not for me though ( ꈍᴗꈍ).
But seriously, this one really is cool. And if I ask the tattoo artist to put their own touch on it, like you know, making it more artistic, let their creativity get wilder. I'm sure they can still enhance this drawing to make it more cool and beautiful. I want! Seriously! But I have to find a tattoo artist first. And yes, I want this on my finger. To be honest, I want it on my ring finger, but then it will look like this, but on a second note, it's actually not bad, right? But I still think it's much cooler if it's in the middle finger. What do you think?
And another reason why I want this design on my finger is because of my fun memories with it. I want permanent proof that I had fun memories during high school despite the hard times I also had during that time. And I want to remember more those happy memories than those sad and painful days. This would be my beautiful reminder for me, now all I have to do is find a tattoo artist that will ink this on my finger. Ehe.
