My very first tattoo is the dinosaur on my left forearm. It has a triceratops, footprints going across my arm and my sisters name and birth date. I got this tattoo for my sister Bertie when she was serving her 4 years in prison. I got this as a way to show her that even though she was where she was for doing what she did that I still loved her and supported her. I got a triceratops because she was always sarah from the land before time. She was always the first to start a fight and was just as thick headed too. The footprints are a symbol to the hard life that she lived and the birth date is to remind me that, that is the day that the world was to be changed forever. I will always love my sister and always be thankful to have her in my world forever. The day I got my tattoo I was terrified. I was shaking both inside and out and I kept thinking I was gonna get an infection and die from it. After what seemed like a long ass thought process I said fuck it and got it. Once that needle hit my arm for the first time I was addicted and couldn't wait to finish it to get another one. All in all my first tattoo was the best decision I've ever made.
