All of the feels.

The Stages Of Getting A Tattoo
Piper Young

So, I got a tattoo yesterday and realized there are different stages of emotion that are constantly running through your mind on the day you get a tattoo. Being myself, I thought I'd post a list of what to expect when you get your first, second, third, or fiftieth tattoo.

1. Excitement.

You just can't wait to have it on your body.

2. Anxiety.

"What if I don't like where I put it?"
"What if I wimp out because the needle hurts too bad?"
"What if my artist sucks and then I don't get exactly what I want?"

3. Excitement again.

You've just walked into the parlor and things are getting pretty real.

4. Scared.

The needles are about to start scraping your skin, and you're silently freaking out in a bad way.

5. Ouch.

Needles hurt, man. (You might shed a tear or two or just make funny faces)

6. Pure satisfaction.

You're all done with your tattoo and it looks even better than you could've ever imagined. *Insert heart eyes here*.

College students, you might be able to relate to this one. These probably sound familiar because we often tell ourselves these phrases; however, we are unable to follow or agree with these the following, deep down inside of our overwhelmed, tired minds.

1. "No more spending money on useless things"

Until you walk into a 99 cents store and suddenly have the urge to pick up anything that's less than a dollar.

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.
