ZTA tatoo...
 
If you were to get a ZTA tatoo were would you put it and what would it be? Would you even get one? I kinda stole this thread but I wanted to hear what my sisters think about a tatoo with our letters. :)

I think that if I were to get a tattoo, I'd probably do a tiny strawberry or a crown, not letters. Since our letters are not 'Greek -looking" I wouldn't want something thinking they were my initials or the initials of an ex or something.

I don't know where I'd put it - ankle or lower back probably.

I'd probably get the five-point crown. I don't like tattoos so I'd put it in a place that you couldn't see like on my hip.

A few of my college sisters got tattoos while I was in school. Two of them got crowns, one of the back and one on the ankle. I also had a few get strawberries on their toes and stomachs.

Don't know if I would ever have the nerve to do that, but if I did I would get it on my back.

I once went to a tattoo parlor to look at getting my belly pierced, they had a picture of a strawberry with a big pink ribbon tied around it. I figured a zeta had probably been there!!!:p

I don't think I could ever actually GET a tattoo, but I know what I would get if I ever got up the nerve....

A crown with a white violet laying in front of it. On my lower back.

I have one on the inside of my right ankle. It is ZTA in blue below a dark yellow 5-pointed crown that is outlined in blue. The whole thing is about the size of a quarter. (A band-aid covers it if needed.) My grand little sis has ZTA in very pretty cursive script on the inside of her ankle. It is no bigger across than a dime and is very dainty. She says that people rarely notice it.

I don't regret getting mine. That said...there are many people that disapprove of tattoos and I hate the fact that they may think less of the Fraternity due to my body art. I'm glad I don't have it in a private place though. I know of some sisters whose ex-boyfriends could verify their *ahem* intimacy with a Zeta because of their graphic description of the tattoo and its placement.

For me, and ON me, Zeta really is forever.

OK, well I don't EVER plan on getting a tattoo because I don't do pain, but if I ever did, I would get a crown on the small of my back. One of our new members got one and it looked awesome (and she was actually worried that she would get in trouble with the sisters for having it, but we didn't care). Some of our girls have strawberries, and a lot have our chapter mascot, the ladybug. I would never want our actual letters in a conspicuous place because what if I have a night of drunken stupidity while I'm on spring break or what if I sing some horrible kareoke one night? I wouldn't want to represent Zeta in a bad way, and my lavalier I can take off.

If I ever got one, and I don't think I would...piercings are more my thing...I'd get a cown on the small of my back. My grand-little has a tattoo there and it looks really awesome, although she said it hurt really bad ouch!

A lot of my sisters and I have 5 point crowns. I made my own and decorated it and put it on my lower back. :D

Hey ZTAqueen-

where did you got to get yours? I got mine in Moscow.

I got mine in Nacogdoches,TX where I'm from and go to school at.

I'm a Theta Eta, too. Go Jacks!

Stacy LaRue Gannon - Sigma pledge class/Spring '87

I came to the 25th anniversary in March and had dinner at the house in April when I came to Nac for the Big Dip (mentor ring ceremony) and to speak at a conference at SFA. Jennifer Chappell and I were interviewed for TV for the Big Dip.

I'm still very active in Zeta as the panhellenic delegate for the Dallas Area Night Alumnae chapter, the panhellenic advisor for Gamma Phi/UNT, founder/advisor for the ZTA Mothers Club of Greater Dallas, and am on the committees for Texas Zeta Day 2003 and our annual ZTAF/Komen fundraiser. (And yes, I do have a life other than Zeta. I am married, have 2 kids and work full-time for a large national Radio network. But I still have so much fun with Zeta that I make time for it.

When I got my tattoo, you had to drive to Moscow to get one. The tattoo "artist" was some creepy guy named "Shaky Bob" who showed me his lightning bolt! I think you can figure that one out. A guy friend went with me to get one, too, and I'm SO glad he was there.

I didn't mean to write so much but apparently my caffeine has kicked in for the day. :)

Tell me about yourself. You can e-mail me directly at Stacy.Gannon@abc.com if you like.

ZL,

LaRue

getting a tattoo...
 
I am thinking about getting a small crown on the small of my back but I can't decided on what I want it to look like. Do any of you who have ZTA crown tattoo's have pictures or websites that would have some ideas, if so it would sure help![COLOR=teal]
