Tattoos.

Just recently, my brother & I discussed what we want to get inked. I've been thinking about getting inked up for the past two years now. So many ideas passed through my mind. But I want my first one to have a very significant meaning. After almost two years of contemplating, I have decided to get "believe (maniwala)" in tribal alibata script on my inner forearm near the elbow.

Another idea I had in mind was a phoenix. I originally wanted the phoenix to be a rib piece, but I know that would hurt like a motha'. Plus, hella people been hyping phoenix tattoos up since I mentioned on getting it two years ago. So I decided (if I were to get it) to alterate it a bit by just having the phoenix wings on my shoulders.

My brother wants me & him to have matching tattoos with our cousins -- our grandfather's (mom's side) name, Ignacio. There are a few reasons why we should get his name & not our other grandparents (not to avoid our other grandparents in any manner).

1. We never met any of our other grandparents.
2. He basically raised/took care of all of us while our parents were working when we were younger.
3. He's the only one who's still alive.

I totally agree with my brother on getting our grandpa's name. Just where though .. ?

So these are the few tattoo ideas I am willing to go through. Now, I need to find me a sick tattoo artist. (:
