Amazing Tattoo Experience

Hey Guys!

I decided to do something a little different to start off summer vacation.

I got a tattoo!

This was something I was planning on doing for my birthday in September but, there was an interesting change to my plans... My mother wanted to go with me and get one as well!

 Over the past two years, I had been mentioning/telling my mother that I wanted a tattoo and that I was going to get one for my 20th birthday. She would say that if I was going to get one then it would need to be something unique and meaningful. Nothing "trendy" or in the moment.

This really helped me pick out the design I wanted on my skin forever. I researched different symbols and designs and their meanings.

To make a long drawn out story short, my talking about wanting to get a tattoo made my mother realize that she actually wanted one too. She decided that once I moved back home we would get one together.*


My mother got a crown on her left wrist. She considers herself royalty. It looked like this:


This is NOT her arm by the way. 

I, on the other hand, got a symbol that meant "under control". I placed it on my left forearm. To me, it meant that I would be the one in control of what happens in my life. It looked like this:
Under Control


We went to the shop Golden Rule Tattoo, we found that they would do our tattoos for a very reasonable price and the atmosphere was super friendly, relaxed but professional. You can click on their name and check them out! They really made my first tattoo experience super enjoyable and gave great instructions on caring for the tattoo afterward.

The healing process took about 2 weeks but, it was easy and low maintenance. Just washing off the tattoo with dial soap (the pump not the bar) and applying non-scented lotion to the tattoo everyday.

Here are the finished products:


This one is mine


And this my mother's

So far we've had our tattoos for about 3 months and we love the results!

Side note****
My mother and I do basically everything together.

Hope you guys enjoyed this experience!!

I purchased the 38mm Apple Watch Series 1 in Space Gray Aluminum with the black sport band.

Let's start out with the packaging. The product came in a long white rectangular box that was aesthetically pleasing and protective of the product. The product came with a small/medium size band, a medium/large band, a magnetic charging cable, a USB power adapter, and a brief instruction manual.  The instructions were short and to the point. It was extremely easy to set up.

I've had this watch for awhile and I can say that it was worth the money. It is easy to use discreetly, I can check and respond to text messages, and check all of my notifications without having to pick up my phone. It has a silent mode so your notifications will only buzz if you are in class or a meeting. You can track workout sessions and your heart rate. In comparison to my old Fitbit Charge HR, the heart rate tracking and the workout tracking were very similar. If you have notifications for certain people on Instagram, the watch will let you like photo they post. You know what is the best part?? It can tell time. Crazy right? The Apple Watch has this feature!


Anyways.

Of course, there were some cons to the this product. For instance, I do not use this to track my sleep. I have found that it does not quite track it accurately. I would rather use the Fitbit to get a realistic read on my sleeping patterns. Also this product is not waterproof. I was strongly warned that it should sustain no water contact other than light rain. Apple has fixed the water problem by coming out with the Apple Watch series 2, which is waterproof and has a bunch of other cool features but, that's not I'm reviewing.  The battery life was another minor issue for me. It lasts about a day and a half if you use it frequently. This is an easy fix for me since I charge it while I sleep. Strangely, It does not take long to get it to full power.

Overall, this product is a solid 8/10
It's not perfect but, I find it to be a step in the right direction for Apple. I was (and still am) happy with what I bought.

Rating system (1-10) 1= horrible/ bad/ no 10= heck ya!

Durability: 9 (it is not waterproof but it can be made waterproof)

Ease of Use: 9

Battery life: 8

Worth the Money: 9

Review:
Image result for Iphone 6s colorsA couple of months ago I received an iPhone 6s to replace my iPhone 5c. I was going to get the iPhone 7, but I found that it was too big for my hand and would cause nerve issues for my thumbs in the future. The iPhone 6s was not too big and not too little, just right. I was head over heels for the new technology. It was bigger, ran faster, the screen resolution was more vivid and had better technology that came with the phone. For example, it had the thumbprint technology and the 3D Touch. There have been updates to it and honestly, it has made it so much better.

The most recent update changes a feature with the flashlight. Using the 3D touch you can select a setting for the brightness of the flashlight. There are 3 settings: Bright, Medium and Low. The brightness levels are noticeable and useful. For example, if I dropped something in a dark movie theater, I could turn on the Low flashlight and easily look for my lost item without disturbing other people in the theater.

I highly recommend this phone, it has extremely useful features, a beautiful design and is incredibly fast!
