Just one (still seeking a sugar-daddy to pay for the rest I have drawn up)
Also looking for an apprenticeship, been told more than once that if I weren't female, they'd do it, but because I am, "NO".

i have none. the one that i want involves lots of color and detail and last time i looked into, it was going to cost more than $150-$200. i just don't have that kind of money to spend on a tatoo reguardless of how long and how much i've really wanted it.
and not to start some feminist parade or anything, but why the fuck can't you be an apprentise becasue you're female. that doesn't make sense to me.

I know I can apprentice as a female, just the places I have checked either didn't have room for another apprentice, or they blatently told me they were not willing to apprentice a woman. But there were only 3 places that said that. I recently found out about the chick at Passion Fish also. I did not try Saints yet, but i definately will, thank you tat2jay

One tattoo on upper left arm, "medieval script" letter H (this is what they told me at the tattoo place, I just thought it looked cool) which most people think is a Chinese symbol of some sort. I plan to get another very very soon, just not sure what kinda tat to get this time or where.

1) The first letter of each of my 3 midgets names in Chinese on my upper outter right thigh.
2) A dolphin jumping out of a wave on my left shoulder blade.
3) A 'family' symbol on the left side of my neck
4) An ankh on my upper left arm.
5) A vampire mouth with bat wings coming out of it on my outter, lower left thigh.
I want, at least, one more...... a bat to span my lower back. I have yet to find a design that 'feels' right.

And that is so important! The first tat I got, all I knew was that I wanted a bat. I didn't see one I liked and he said "i can do a bat. That' s easy." I went with friends and we were all getting one regardless, so I thought what the hell, go for it. How bad could it look?
The "bat" looks more like a cockroach with wings.
For my second, I took some time and brought in the exact design I wanted. I've had it for about 15 years, still looks great and I've never regretted it.
