Not to be a dick, but I sincerely hope you don't have that tattooed on your shoulder. 'Amo Vita' does not make sense grammatically in Latin, at least not on its own. "Love life" would be either 'Ama Vitam' (if the message is addressed to one person or a generalization) or 'Amate Vitam' (if you were addressing two or more people). If you wanted "I love life" that would be 'Amo Vitam.' It is as if someone looked up "love" and "life" in a Latin dictionary and merely mushed them together with no regard to grammar or inflection. Reminds me of people who get Kanji symbols tattooed on themselves and have no clue what they mean.

Wasn't referring to everyone who has a Kanji symbol, but its always funny meeting those who don't even know what they tattooed on themselves

yeah it was spur of the moment...whatever. worst comes to worst, i can add an M to the end of it and change the O to an A (niether of which would be hard). no biggie. i like it though.

also, the way it stands right now, is just the two words...which i understand is fine if i am not trying to make a phrase out of it. so it's not bad afterall.

Whoa...Caela's tattoo is a lot like mine. Cept mine is cooler.



Damn my hair was long there!





I also have a kanji symbol...but yeah I DO know what it means. It's the symbol for life, on the back of my neck.

Like it C-dawg! hahaa, C-dawg!!


I love shoulder tats. shoulder tats > *. I hate ankle tats, foot, random cav, wrist, lower backs ( I just don't like the over done tribal ones ). Back of the neck is iffy, HAS to be small.

Now I want one. yay!

Here's a repost, just cause I like this pic.





It's actually a shitty tattoo in terms of the work the artist did. I've been meaning to get it fixed, but sooooo lazy. Oh and broke.
