Stop crying over spilt milk ... fucking go lick it up !!!

Ok ok... top of the agenda, SHI FU Sean Chua has got a online port folio . it's called http://www.dingdongnow.com/ ... go check it out ... i know i know...the name abit off right but that's the whole idea . It's suppose to sound stupid and corny so you remember it. Brings me to another point .

Was chatting to Azel ( EMN tattoos' personal hair stylist...hahaha) and she brought up the previous post about the Dawn yang and Xiaxue topic... I immediatly cut her off and honestly told her that i don't really give a rat's ass about those two and i just saw it as an opportunity for free publicity . I might seem like a fucking cheapo but it's fine...Cos i'm Singaporean. The word "Free" is our aphrodisiac . It's our tongkat ali . We are One People , One Nation , One Singapore!!!! sorry...got carried away there. Oh yeah... National Day is coming... I'm hereby giving a patriotic offer. Anyone willing to get the National Flag tattooed on their body??? I'll do it for FREE for the first 3 people to call! No gimmicks . No joke . I'm serious so just call me to arrange a time .

Another website to check out is http://www.pubhopperssg.com/ . You know how the boys and I just love a ice cold beer at a fav pub, Yeah , Pub hoppers is the place you can get the latest updates on events happening at pubs all around Singapore. Awesome .

Back to the shop . Please disregard the " Opening Hours From 1pm till late " sign on the roller shutter. EMN tattoos are now doing tattoos BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. So just call any one of us in advance before you drop by to avoid a wasted trip down. Thanks.

Ok . This concludes this post and i hope i've just impressed you with my advertising skills . P.S. I'll be whoring my blog to any advertisers or companies who are interested . Signing off.IAN

Walking Contridiction , I've got no right .

This is of total irrelevance to tattoos or anything to do with the shop but anyway let the beer do the talking…. i was enjoying my morning crap when I stumbled upon the Sunday times in which I saw two really hot chicks on the front page. But that was before I took a closer look. Apparently there’s a feud going on between these two bloggers Dawn Yang and Xiaxue aka Wendy Cheng . Didn’t really go into details on what the fight was about but I guess its just another publicity stunt to get attention .Who would have thought that diaries would one day involve lawsuits. I mean like a diary is where you let out your views and dislikes and hate and anger and fustrations for your eyes only… ah. There we go. The four words that make a whole lot of difference. “FOR YOUR EYES ONLY” I mean seriously, if you put yourself out there for public scrutiny, you gotta fucking bear the consequences yo. So with that said , i really feel like there’s no such thing as honest opinion anymore . And just for the sake of comparison between the two, Dawn Yang hands downs.

Anyway straying from that point, through careful observations and indebt studies , I really think I’ve finally figured out what makes a person a famous blogger and I’m going to experiment my findings with myself.

First I’ll start wearing thick makeup round the eyes to probably hide all the dark rings from the insomnia from blogging too much. Looks like that’s the “in” thing, then I’ll take more pictures exposing more forehead than the rest of my face to make myself look innocent and vulnerable and also emphasize my coloured contacts .YES. Then I’ll put on skimpy outfits and let my right testicle fall out “by accident” and wear a sarong and party all night long .Maybe some rhinoplasty to make my nose a smaller but not visable unless I take a before picture to compare. Work on my camera angles cos some angles just show how I really look like and I’ll begin typing like THiS FoR No ApPAreNT ReASon . And finally, I have to be a girl… FUCK!!! Now that’s gonna be a problem.

To me it doesn’t make sense . What’s so fucking appealing about reading about someone’s narrow-minded views . I understand the viewing of photographs of the hot Dawn Yang but I really don’t understand the blog thing. I’m really not getting it and I think it’s a fucking waste of precious time. Anyway I guess you would have figured by now that I’ve been drinking too much again ok. Got to go check out clapbangkiss now .OUT! BURp!

HELP!!! I need some suggestions

Back again just in time for the monthly update. Everyone at the shop has been doing quite well except for the car i bought , which has been making a very irritating squeaking noise. This month igot to do some really unique and cool tattoos and have 3 oriental pieces in progress. And now the shop has officially changed its opening hours to 3 pm and i'm trying my best to keep to it. But still i might not be there on certain days so call before travelling down.

Just the other day , this kid came in to the shop wanting to get a japanese mask on his upper arm. He looks not a day older than 16 or might be even younger. So here's the thing. He booked a appointment with me on monday and i'm still comtemplating whether i should do the tattoo for him . Part of me doesn't think its right , but if i don't do it for him , i have this feeling he'll just get someone else to do it anyway for him. i totally understand cos i got my first tattoo when i was 15 and i can tell you the terrible experiences i've had. It's not because i couldn't afford it , its just that the really good artist at that time had a mandatory 18 and above age limit. so i got loads of really bad tattoos done on me. So how? what am i to do? its definately not bout the money , its bout morals and responsibility as an artist i know but i'm really sure the shop next to us will do it for him no questions asked. And we all know what the outcome of the tattoo will be. I'm taking suggestions dudes . thanks .
