I'm so excited!! =) I got my first tattoo!! So like I mentioned before, I had been thinking about getting one very soon. I was debating from the star on my wrist and a star on the back of my neck. And I finally made a decision. I went with the star on the back of my neck. I figured I didn't want my first tattoo to be so noticeable. I wanted something that I could hide and show. So I was originally going to go with a red star, but red is just not my color. Pink is more me. Red is more my cousin. This is MY tattoo. So I gave it a lil bit of a Vane flare. Hehe =) And I loooooove it! It's tight!
People always ask, "Did it hurt?"... and you know what, no it didn't really. So not as much as I thought it might. It was more of a burning/stinging feeling than actual pain. And I definately thought it was going to hurt more it being the back of my neck. I've heard it's a difficult spot. But I took it like a champ. Lol Those who have seen it so far tell me it's cool. So I'm happy. Even if they didn't, I'm still happy. Lol
Here are some pics.

Holy shit! Butterfly!...wha the...when did... this is cool. I like it. Does the star symbolize anything? or is it mainly the connection with your cousin? I like the pink.. reminds me of neon lights ( cause of the outline). what's the extra flare that you added?
