Design of my future tattoo!

[Tigerlily.]

Well I've sketched it out but seeing as I don't want to ruin the symmetry by trying to draw both wings I only drew one and will be telling the artist to put the same on the other side, lolz. Basically my mom and I are at an agreement of this tattoo when I'm sixteen but one point my aunt brought up (we all live together) was that mom is getting her tattoo soon and if I have my design etc ready when she gets hers, maybe I can get my done at the same time. I think if I were to get this tattoo when mom gets hers, it would be the push I need to get over this mini relapse I'm having.

I'll post the pic once I get a good pic of the design I've drawn but to explain until then, it's "I survived" in Japanese with celtic butterfly wings around the characters as they are going down my wrist with the wings on either side so yeah. And the wings I'm getting on it are (http://www.tattoodonkey.com/o6WlmqWk...ngs-tattoo.jpg) And for those who have a non-ancient computer the writing is 私は生き残った

So yeah, it'll be about 3-3 1/2 inches long total on my left wrist, palm side because that is where I would cut and where my scars are.

[edit]: Got it uploaded and put it as an attachment, that's my hand drawn version and it's on normal college ruled paper pretty much the exact size I want.

That looks cool
California still allows minors to get tattoos with parental consent?

Edit: Actually, I looked it up, and it's a misdemeanor for anyone to tattoo a minor in California....

i like it and im glad ur getitng one wiht a meanign for it. tis a great idea and if u cant get it at this age then wait but i liek the idea

Technically I don't live in California, I put that because I do visit sometimes and oddly enough I'm fine putting my face and name etc on the internet but not my actual location all the time, I've said before how I actually live in Nevada lolz, and it's legal here.

Ah, gotcha. I like the design a lot

[Tigerlily.]

Yeah where I live it's at the owner's discretion whether to ink a minor with parental consent or not and thanks

It looks nice, I like it! Just be careful because getting it on your wrist can triggering.

[Stargazed.]

I like it. I agree with Nicole. I got two tattoos on both of my wrists and it was really triggering. So just be careful. (:

I know it might be, but I think I can work through that especially because of the reason it's there. My cousin kept telling me to get it somewhere else because she has wrist tattoos and sometimes can't get a job but honestly it wouldn't have the same strong connection anywhere else for me. And thank you all so much, I'm glad you like it and the compliments and advice just make me even happier
