My best friend's step-mom has got me addicted to Miami Inc. and L.A. Inc. It got me thinking about tattoos that I wanted in the future. I already have a plan for my first tattoo which is going to go on my right arm towards my shoulder. It is a tribal Yin-Yang symbol to show the balance I wish I had, in both mind and body. I'll try to upload a pic of it once I find a way to get it from my phone to my computer. But anyways, I was thinking about other tattoo ideas and I want tattoos that are sentimental to me. Something to symbolize something that has effected my life. The first thing that came to my mind was my family. My dad, Sean Joseph Larson. My mom, Anlelalani Jade Lee. My sister, Makaokalani Tariel Lee. And my uncle, Kalaniola Toi Miles Lee (probably butchered his name, he goes by Toi). So, how am I going to interpret my family into tattoos. My dad, who was the biggest influence in my life owns a 1981 Pontiac Trans-Am. That car could have killed him, but at the same time, it saved his life. His car means the world to both of us. My idea for him was to get the original Fire Bird from the hood of a Trans-Am tattooed on my back with a ribbon beneath it with his birth date on the ribbon. Then there is my mom. She has plaid a bigger role in my life than my dad. If it wasn't for her, then I wouldn't be here. I was thinking on putting her nickname, Shasta, across the center of my chest and below it a small picture to symbolize her. I still haven't figured out what the picture is going to be. Then there is my sister, my only blood sibling. I was going to put hers on the left side of my chest, above my heart. She is tricky. She has a son whom I would kill for to keep him safe. I was thinking on getting maybe a caterpillar, cocoon and a butterfly, to symbolize my nephew (caterpillar), the protection we provide for each other (cocoon), and my sister (butterfly). My uncle is the trickiest above them all. I was going to have his on the right side of my chest. I never have been very close to him. We have our moments from time to time and we have butted heads a time or two. With him, its a love hate situation. I honestly have no clue what I would do for him. I just know that I want to put a tattoo on my body for him to show my love and respect for him.
Many of you probably wont read this all the way through. For those of you who did, thank you. I will post more vents and start posting some stories that I come up with (if I can come up with any). I do accept feedback and ideas. Feel free to let me know how you feel about my ideas and feel free to suggest something for my uncle.
