My Tattoo

Got it done from Hell to Pay tattoo shop in Camden town, London, few months ago (November 2010)



F.A.Q

Why did i get this tattoo?
Because i wanted to. I have been waiting for the right time, i thought i should do it on my 18th birthday, instead i did it a month before 19th birthday. People keep saying i will change when i grow up, worry about money and security more, will get caught in a dead end job just like them. I wanted to get this tattoo to remind me who i am and my values and purpose in life just in case i do end up being like them i would at least try to get out of it. I love body art and i just knew i wanted a tattoo.

The meaning behind this tattoo-
The circle in between in a pentagram, five-pointed star an ancient symbol used by pagans and also for witchcraft. Five points stand for Earth, Air, Water, Fire and the Spirit or the Spirit World. It represents balance, harmony and magick. I am a spiritual person so of course this is a symbol very dear to me, i practised witchcraft and i am very much into occult.
An inverted pentagram is used for Satanism, i have no idea what they do in it, neither do i want to dwell on it. But don't mistake my tattoo for it as you can see the pentagram in my tattoo is not inverted.

Did it hurt?
Yes, but not much, nothing that you cannot handle. But pain would depend on person to person and also the body part, like ribs would hurt a lot (any bony part) back was not so bad. It felt like very hot water trickling down my back.

Do i plan on getting more tattoos?
Yes. Maybe one or two more. I have one in mind, but I'm not sure when I'll go through with it.

Would i recommend this tattoo shop?
This is my first tattoo so it's not like i have been in a dozen of tattoo shop, but i had a very good time and everyone in the shop was very nice and helpful, so yes, you might want to check it out.

Mask


The only feeling
That drives me to live
Has finally abandoned me
My cries
Has been muffled by my silent screams
I have to hide it all and just try to move on
Until something better comes along
It’s that hope in which I cradle my future in
Reality seems unreal
The hope is hammering my head
I want to end this pain
But it’s the pain I’m living for
It’s the pain we all live for.
When I see those happy faces
I wonder if its happiness or ignorance.
