Finishing up University has been a difficult task that I have not always been so confident about... Some days I wondered if I had what it would take to make it this far. So I am finally here and ready to take on the next challenge of life.
If you guys don't know, I have been wanting a KOI fish tattoo for some time now, and seeing how I am ready to graduate I figured how perfect to get it now when I need the most luck.
The Koi fish in Japenese Culture has many stories if you look around the internet, but all the stories have one thing in common. The Koi represents luck and determination and thats what I need.
SO.... I went to New Tribe to talk about getting one done for me. Stuart is the artist that is designing me the tattoo. I am not too sure what it will look like but I asked him to create me something nice that he would be proud of. He asked me if I would like some water like the picture above and also wanted to know about a few flowers.. So I can imagine that this will be a nice piece of work. I was expecting it to be alot more $$$, but he told me for the size I was looking at it would be 360-400ish. So now its time to pick up a few more shifts at work so that I can pay for this.
So now me and Hilary have an appointment Mar 12, at 12pm, mine will take between 3 to 4 hours and Hilary's will be under 1 hour. He assured me that getting it on the side will hurt compared to the ones that I have, but I am so excited about it.
I will post pictures as soon as we get them done... I hope you are all excited as I am.

Glad it's not going to break the bank to get the tatoo. I'm looking forward to seeing the design. Personally, I hope it hurts lots. LOL!
Cool Tattoo. I think that this one will be your best yet. Can't wait!
hey bud - it seems for some reason my comment did not get registered - don't really know why not. But, it seems that the Koi is a perfect symble of what you have completed, wear it with pride! WE are really poroud of what you are done, just thing the world will soon have another me - just a little more educated. Keep up the good work. By the way did you consider the wrap around Koi ?????
