Tattoos I've so far....

BUNGAI TERUNG. That's the traditional Iban tattoo. Bungai Terung tattoo is the first tattoo that an Iban should get when one would get a tattoo. So why not, get a tattoo in honour of your tradition rather than the one that are 'IN', right? I get this done at Monkey Tattoo Studio in Kuching. Believe me, when you want to get an Iban tribal tattoo, Jeremy is the man that you should get. Being my first ink on my body, I'm proud with pair eventhough, it fade a bit right now but, a little touch up is on the way. Healing of the tattoo was quite hard for me, because just a day after the tattoo were done, I've to go for travelling to Lundu and you guess it, infection got in the way. Trust me, you don't want to get infection on your tattoo always keep yourself clean and antiseptic cream would be your new bestfriend! Thanks god, Jeremy is kind enough ( he is still kind, ha3..) to give me free touch up after all, it was all my fault. All is done and my next tattoo is,
KOI FISH. According to Japanese references, a Koi Fish tattoo symbolize, the phase of your life. For me, a Koi Fish heading up toward the Dragon Gate shows, I'm still heading towards my goals in life and as, there are a lot of hardships on the way, Koi Fish also symbolize PERSEVERANCE. And yes, perseverance as it is, it took me about 2 months to complete it. I decided to go for Half- sleeve tattoo and maybe an extension in the near future. This tattoo, means a lot to me. All the hardships in life can be CONQUERED if you have a will. An appropiate combination to a Koi Fish tattoo would be a DRAGON TATTOO because, in Japanese mythology, Koi Fish that have succeed in swimming towards the Dragon Gate would become a DRAGON. It's a maybe for an extension.
