Tattoos and Their Meanings

Hey there! Want to know about tattoos? You came to the right place! Today's post is all about tattoos. I have my 5th one in mind and as soon as I get the money, I'm booking to appointment. In doing this I got to wondering why do people get tattoos and how many different reasons can I find? So I interviewed a few people I know and asked them to pick their favorite tattoo of theirs and tell me why they got it and what it means to them. This is what I found out. Enjoy


Kevin's Grim Reaper
.

“This tat was a cover up tattoo. Originally I had my ex wife's name there. We divorced shortly after me getting it. So I decided to cover it up by putting a face to the name. Fitting I think."


Alicia's Flower

"I got it for my daughter Sophia it has a big blue flower for myself and a littler orange flower for her and my step mom and sister got one also step mom for us kids and sister for her kids do they are all connected with the colors."

Sarah's Pikachu

"My pikachu tattoo on my forearm bc playing pokemon with my brother and friends is one of my favorite childhood memories and is still one of my fav games."


Brandy's Swirls

"My side torn open with pixie dust flowing out into a celestial pool of to fish as my sign. It represents the replenishing of my energy so that I am never depleted."


Shawn's Clown

"I got the clown tattoo on my ass because it is a symbol of mystery. Clowns hide who they are behind the face paint just as i want to hide some things from my past. Got mixed up in the wrong crowd did some stupid shit so the clown represents me hiding some stuff from my past."


Shallan's Wings

"Dereck Ramos was my cousin. He died in a car accident when he was eighteen and I was six. The tattoo is in memory of him. "wind beneath my wings" is the song they played at his funeral and also it explains exactly how I feel about him."


You can visit my friends' Facebook pages by clicking on their names.

As soon as I get my new tattoo, you all will be the first to know.

Update on Jocelyn

Hey everyone! Guess what! Remember Jocelyn and her band Harasstronauts? Well, thanks to my friend Kevin, Jocelyn's dream is very close to coming true! In about 2 weeks we will be recording a demo for her at William Paterson University with Kevin's friend, Carl. Just a little bit about Kevin, he works at the radio station 93.3 WMMR, has his own DJing business, and is the drummer for the band Beyond The Element. He's also a recent graduate of the Connecticut School of Broadcasting.

If you would like a FREE demo cd from Jocelyn, comment here with the word "Demo" and your email address. We'll contact you as soon as they're done.

Be sure to check out Kevin, Carl and Jocelyn on Facebook and support them!

Stay tuned,

"Bully" The Documentary

Hey, guys. So, guess what. There's an AMAZING new movie coming out soon. March 9th, actually. It's a documentary entitled "Bully". It follows the lives of 5 young kids who are constantly and brutally bullied to no end. Watch the trailer here.

Looks like a good movie, right? The MPAA gave it an R rating for "language used by the children in the film". So now this movie can't be shown in schools, no one under 17 can go see it without a parent, and it can't reach the audience it really needs to reach under these limitations. Luckily, people are not standing for this. They're doing everything in their power to get this movie rating changed to PG-13 and I am now one of those people. This movie is to show kids not to give up and that if they're being bullied there's a light at the end of the tunnel, they're not alone, and they can overcome. It's also to show adults that strict anti-bullying laws need to be put in place and enforced so that children don't need to suffer in school. School should be a place for learning and socializing. It should be a home away from home, not somewhere you're afraid to go.

This ends now.
