This is my third and most important tattoo. It represents my battle with depression and that I just need to “keep calm and sail on.” It’s not quite finished; the colors need to be added, but I’m very happy with it as is.
Remember during summer when people were shitting themselves over Pottermore and now it’s like not even progressing?
My tattoo is a quote from Kurt Vonnegut’s novel Slaughterhouse-Five. It is on Billy Pilgrim’s tombstone to reflect back on how he feels about life. The quote is both ironic and optimistic and that’s why I love it. I got it done on my 18th Birthday (12/30/11) at Virginia Beach Ink by Nikki. It’s the first of many more to come.
Edward Scissorhands has been my favourite film for as long as I can remember and I’ve been wanting this tattoo for a few years now, I couldn’t be any happier with the outcome! I’m completely in love with it :D
Done by Mick at Shades Of Gray in Hitchin, Hertfordshire
