so yesterday was my first day of my tattoo apprenticeship..
i was nervous as hell at first and basically just kind of hung out the whole night and just watched.. i talked to everyone though and have been meeting all kinds of people and learning how to socialize on a different level at this point though.. meaning sort of a business, sort of social, so it's all good.. i finally relaxed towards the end of the night though and was able to just chill and get the hang of things.. im going to have to get used to tattooing w/ people around though w/ and crowd and all that.. because it seems that when one person gets one several others do too..
it's kind of interesting though.. i learned a whole lot about the business end of things right off the bat though.. which is good.. i need to keep that in mind.. i also found out that im going to be learning how to pierce as well.. which is cool as hell because i thought i was going to have to pay for that separately... but that also means more equipment to buy but hey.. piercing equpiment isn't all that expensive and this is going to be the way for me to make my way i believe for the next few years anyway..
