My first two tattoos...

[Shade]

I have always been wanting a tattoo or two in my life, but never had a chance to do so.

But last weekend I went to Bali to accompany my wife for a doctoral anti-aging seminar, and I was jobless.

So I roamed around the place and found a great small tattoo shop. And got me these two inks!


The barcode tattoo is something I have always liked. The first series on the left is the day when me and my wife got together as boyfriend girlfriend thing, and the second series on the right is the wedding date. :)



The tattoo on my finger is her name - AIDA in Sanskrit (Balinese Sanskrit). :)



I was expecting something more painful, but turns out it's not as bad as I thought it would be. However the one on the finger was a badass pain at certain points. The tattoo guy told me that it's all skin and no meat - so the pain is the worst on that area.

Just wanting to share with you guys... these are not even fully healed yet, still waiting for the skin to come off.
