More Tattoo ponderages in the ranks

This is so clichéd but i really have been thinking about this for years even though I'm only young!

I know of two places i'd have the tattoo and i'd like to enjoy it whilst i'm still young, but i'm reeeeaaallly most certainly definitely one for not jumping into things to the point of i put off my 21st birthday present for a year remember, well in fact my parents gave up and went and bought it without me knowing after a year (worked out much better in my eyes anyway!

).

I want/need to inspiration somewhere i can browse (not just BMEzine please

) for ideas. Ideally i want some form of memorable quote that sums me or my life etc... up as a person, something i read and think wow they were certainly talking about me there. But i don't really know where to start looking, i've told myself for years "oh one day i'll fall over something that just strikes me", but tbh this definitely hasn't happened i'm far too picky. I'm more likely to read something and think oh that might be good but what if tomorrow i see something better...

Then theres the obvious and again clichéd possibility of me having it written in a different language maybe related to where it originated or because it looks nice anyway. That or i'd just have it in a scroll-esque nature.

Up the side of my body (armpit to hip) or across my back/shoulders/neck and down my spine slightly are my two places depending on what style suits what really and how much extra i'd have around it. Basically hidden unless i show someone or have my top off.

Anyway don't really know what i'm asking tooo much, but really anyone with tattoos how and where did you "research" or are there any sites other than BMEzine which i can peruse when i'm bored and have the time for spots of inspiration?

I really don't know what to suggest, a quote is something I think is difficult because over the years you may decide that it doesn't relate to you any more. I chose mine very much on the spur of the moment because as soon as I saw it, I knew I wanted it. It just *clicked* with me.

if you've not fallen for something then there's nothing that any of us could suggest to pick the thing that's just right for you.

just wait it out, the thing you're looking for will come to you. if it doesn't then it's not something you're meant to do.

no one except you can ever know when and what to get permenantly etched on you.

also of note, your ribs hurt like ****. like actually not funny how painful it is.
