Okay girlies, I need some feedback!

I've been considering getting a tattoo for a long long time. I've just never known what I wanted. However, I think I finally came up with an idea I love! I want to get "Think happy thoughts" on the inside of my right wrist, in some kind of pretty script, though the font isn't decided yet. This phrase has twofold meaning for me. 1) I played Wendy in my high school's production of Peter Pan, and one of the key ideas of the story is that you have to think happy thoughts in order to fly. And I really got to fly! With a harness and everything! It's one of my favorite memories of my adolescence (the whole show, not just the flying *g*). and 2) It's a line in My Chemical Romance's song "Headfirst for Halos," which is absolutely one of my top three favorite MCR songs, and also they played it as a special treat at the show I went to in London, which was one of the best nights of my life.

So! Thoughts? Opinions? Advice? I'm really excited about this, but I want to know if it's glaringly stupid or cheesy for any reason, hee. Thanks darlings! ♥

personally, i think your idea is very cool. first and foremost, it's a positive saying (something that helps you along) and second, it has MEANING to you. if it's your favorite movie, then that's another decent reason as well. the fact that that just happens to be a lyric in a band whom you adore isn't bad either, but yes, bear in mind that favorite bands change

if you don't get it on your wrist, perhaps the back of your neck? in case you ever needed to camouflage it for any reason

if you're looking for advice, i have one tattoo but have plans for a few more. they're addictive! my first tattoo deals with my ukrainian heritage and the rest will deal with my cherokee heritage (i'm a lot more than just these two things, but these are the two that played the biggest role in my life). i really really want my parents names across my wrists, but my mother is definitely not keen on the idea. i know I KNOW it's my body so why should i care what she thinks and even SHE has a tattoo but whatever. i think i'maw just wait until i fully move out of the house to get their names done =P

....aaaaaand i'm done wasting space o_O *cookies*
