It didn't really hurt that much, I'm getting used to the pain. The only one that really hurt was the one on my back of a phoenix. That left me with tears in my eyes, I can tell you. I might still get another one. It just depends what kind of mood I'm in. Never say never. I love them and I think they look great. The reason I had this Chinese dragon done was because I read that the phoenix needed to balance out. It's like a Yin and Yang thing. In Chinese tradition the phoenix represents the female and the dragon represents the male, because before I was a little out of balance. I'm hoping it will find me a boyfriend, but he will have to be a mad biker or tattoo freak." 17th November 1999 | Posted by: SpiceNews >> Launch Melanie C helped launch Digital One, the UK's first digital radio station on Monday.
