    I am currenlty working on my first tattoo. I generally know what it is i want i just seem to have hit a blank and cant seem find the last piece of the puzzle.

    The tattoo itself will be a symetrical ambigram, (a word that reads the same upside down) but i cant find or think of a good enough word that deserves to be on my arm for the rest of my life.

    Then the next problem is weather or not to have it on my left arm or the top of my back.

    All suggestions welcome

    Kind regards Matt.

    Get Hardcore. Yeah, that'd be sweet.

    what about your values?

    like, some people value trust, loyalty, love, life... those words sum up their main priorities/principles in life... hardcore would be sweet too... some people find their star signs sum them up completely, get those...

    the whole ambigram thing has kinda been ruined for me by dan brown though.

    Not what you're gonna want to hear, but seriously, wait till you're 18.
    It's something thats gonna be on your body for the rest of your life, where's the rush?
    Start looking through designs now, and pick out say 10 designs that you REALLY like, save them on your PC and forget about them for 6 months.
    Then go back to them and see if you like them as much, and delete the ones you dont.
    Narrow down what you REALLY REALLY want, and then get it done when you are 18.

    Trust me, you'll probably like a load of designs that you will end up not liking as much, if at all. And because its something thats gonna be there for the rest of your life, its worth waiting for, and its worth being sure that its what you really want.
