I finally received the package from my parents today (as the front desk failed to inform me that it actually arrived along with another package yesterday... fail fail fail as always!) and I'm beyond ecstatic! Yeah maaaaan! I can't open it until sometime tomorrow, though, depending on when my roomie decides to head out so I can record it (as part of an up-coming vlog) in peace. lol. So cute of my dad to mention, that I should make a video of me opening the box so people at home could see too. ♡
extra extra this girl got inked!
Anyway, I wanted to show you guys my tattoo! I got inked monday afternoon (do you guys remember me mentioning going in for a consult?) and I love it! I'm generally a sucker for text/symbol and number tattoos (dates, etc) and I love the colors, font etc. of my new tat so much. I know it's not gonna be everyone's taste, as people have different taste in tattoos as they do piercings, if they even like either of them. However; keep your negative opinion to yourself, as I'm not interested in hearing it at all. Of course if there was a typo, I'd understand your need to tell me (I'm a grammar nazi too) but since everything is spelled correct, I don't need your correction on anything. I'm also aware that a lot of people have not been exposed to a lot of italic fonts throughout their lives and therefore have trouble reading what my tattoo says. lol. I shall put "subtitles" ok, just so you don't get all cross-eyed and confused.
Also for those of you having trouble reading it, it says:
"your conscience is dirtier than money"
in black and red ink.
The meaning is rather personal to me and really hard to explain, so I won't really go into details too much, however I will give you the main deal: Generally many people are blaming money for everything bad, when in reality they, themselves, would most likely be willing to do anything to get money. So by their "conscience" being dirty, I'm simply saying that human greed is causing a lot of people to act irrationally, even though they're trying to point their fingers. It is also a "misheard" lyric by the GazettE (from the song "
HYENA" (< I made it a link so you can go see what part of the song I could be talking about~ Hoho!)) that I've grown really fond of over the past 4,5 years. Haha! Oh Ruki.. you and your Engrish ♡
I got it done in Seoul at
TATTOO KOREA. Definitely a place I'd recommend. Don't go to any cheap-ass Korean tattoo place. Many of them aren't legal/authorized to even do tattoos at all and I honestly wouldn't bet my limbs on it, if I were you. I was suggested to go to Hongdae for this one, but I looked it up online and found TATTOO KOREA that way. I wrote them an email about what I wanted, the owner replied and told me to come in for a consult to work on what I wanted. He's a bad-ass dude (who speaks English fluently, w00t) and he and his crew are epic as shit ok. They take their work very seriously and they're super good at what they do. I trust them 100% especially after mine turned out better than I'd expected. TATTOO KOREA even had a guy come in with
THIS SITUATION going on (taken from Tattoo Korea's own
FACEBOOK PAGE) after he got his tat done in Hongdae. As one of the guys commenting said: "
Good tattoos aren't cheap and cheap tattoos aren't good." It's that simple. Don't compromise safety, guys. I'm definitely going back to TATTOO KOREA after this one has healed to get my next one.
Btw, did y'all see
JEONGIE'S POST on her new
super sexual sternum piercing? Hot damn, girl. She has a tattoo as well (okay okay I'm slow, but I wanted to make sure I got exactly what I wanted mhm.) hohoho! I'm one of the cool kids now! : P Admitted... I might go back again in January /snort. I'm sorry, but even while the guy was doing my tattoo, I was already thinking of what I wanted next. Haha! Crazy. The buzzing of that tattoo-thing is nice, alright.
Also I added a new layout! : D Do you like it? It's featuring JEONGIE!! I mean.. Hyuna. HAHA sorry but I seriously think they look so much alike!
