i have always wanted a small tattoo on the inside of my hip...near my lower abdomine ...i wanted one of a 3D butterfly.....they look so life like and real and i always loved butterflies...because you see them flying and glistening in the sunlight...so free...so carefree....what a life ....my mom has one on her butt of a white lily ....i was there when she got it...i really want to get the tattoo but my bf really doesnt want me to get one.....(maybe if he goes back into the military lol) other than that it always puzzled me ....and please dont think of this as any jab or anything..im just very curious....i am a person who is very introverted...ok ok..im bland hehe....i dont have anything to stand out...i dont even wear earrings (unless its a fancy moment or something) but i have to wonder ....so many people say they dont want to conform to society...so they dress gothic ....or they get so many peircings....but alot of others are doing the exact same thing...if you want to go gothic...ill be the first to say your my friend as long as you are a good friend..doesnt matter to me at all...but perhaps people should dress that way...or get those peircings...not to stand out...but because ....it makes you feel good about yourself....its the same with the earlier talk of tattoos...how you should get one that your really passionate about ...obiviously expression such as dress can be changed but it was just a random thought from someone who doesnt really stand out much.....im really proud of you guys who do have your piercings and tatoos and really like them and make you feel better....
