Tattoo!

[ironphoenix]

It has now entered the itchy stage. Yay me.

Transliterated, the whole thing reads, "Megalunei e psyche mou ton kurion kai egalliasen to pneuma mou epi to theo to soteri mou." Gradually, I'm getting better at saying that, since quite a few people ask what it says. (There are two kinds of 'e's and 'o's, since epsilon and eta, and omicron and omega, are pronounced differently.)

Of course, a lot of people don't seem to know quite how to react to it, too.

Does it wrap around in four individual bands, or is it a spiral?

Also, I highly approve. :)

Hey! If I have to wait another 9 days - so you do ;p...

I have only one question:

[ilanikhan.livejournal.com]

Why aren't you topless in this photo?

It's a helix! (Yes, I'm anal-retentive about the distinction, since I did my thesis on helical antennas!)

Also, thanks!

We actually tried it both ways, and the contrast came out better with the black shirt.

Mrow!

Well, that's what virtual licks are for, right?

So what dose it mean in english? And it dose look pretty cool.

Thanks!

My preferred translation is, "My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my saviour."

[nightstriker.livejournal.com]

Ok cool

There's a question.

[maltesewarrior.livejournal.com]

What's the difference between helices and spirals, anyway...? One is finite and the other isn't, one angles into the center of the outlying circle and the other doesn't, or...?

That's right, I know the correct plural form for helix, but not the difference between a helix and a spiral, lol. XD

Kill-joy. I expect toplessness in the next photo!
