i finally started my sleeve, after over a year of appointment changing, financial trouble and procrastonating.

i am SO happy, and i couldn't imagine a better result! i am glad i did not rush into seeing just anybody (which i was tempted to do - i am very impatient.)

today i was being inked for three hours, and my next sitting (of around the same length) is in three weeks. i cant wait - hopefully by then it will be a half sleeve. three weeks after THAT, i have another app. yay!

so we will have to wait and see when i can make more - the artist is full up for the year but he always keeps slots and cancellations free to finish existing work.

WOW i just got a nasty head spin.ew. omg its really bad. seriously the room is spinning and its been going for like two minutes now. shit.

okay better.

SOOO ^_^

here is a shot of me just after the outline was done -



here are two shots of the end result



every time i look at my neko-bus's massive smile my heart sings. i am having a wonderful day :) i got a new handbag too... $25AUD, and its HUGE :D

more head spins :( hmm i think my body is in a bit of shock, time to chill with josh, a salad and salmon dinner, and Naruto. WEEEEE

 Yeah... pics for sure. You may have to wait a lil while however. All my japan pics are in a box under the stairs and will realistically have to stay there till we move which will hopefully be soon. The other bad thing is that they're all pre-digital so i have to go through all of them and pull out some to get reproductions of. I lived there for just under a year with my ex... when we broke up she got the photos i got the negatives. It was fucking amazing and i'd kill to go back... seriously...

 HOW CAN THEY BE IN A BOX UNDER STAIRS? japan is too epic for that!! though i guess if i had photos of an ex and i during our stay in a magical place i may be inclined to hide them also. i cant wait to see them nonetheless <3

 They're just in a box cos we've been moving heaps the last few years... and also like i said i don't actually have the photos just negatives. Never fear however... there probly aren't that many of her... just be a bitch sorting through them and figuring out which ones i want to get printed again because there is a FUCK-TON of them! I'll get them out when we move though.
