Padre’: Saints above !!! Dinnae tell me…nae…it cannae be…..can it? Is it….
Me: Oh for feck’s sake Father, stop the theatrics already….I just went and got meself a TATTOO…

Abe Ke'Cik, My Talented Henna Tattooist 
Aye! You read it right indeed...I *seriously* got shit-faced drunk one night and decided to get a huge-ass tattoo of a Mythical Chinese-Dragon all along my right arm extending from my hands all the way up to my biceps.
Joking aside...it's actually JUST a Henna tattoo-leh! ;-p
I got it made at a small side stall in Damansara Uptown on Friday night since Saturday night is gonnae be CIMB's Annual Dinner / Costume Party. The theme this year is CIMB Idol / A Starry, Starry Night...so everyone's supposed to come as a TV/Movie/Film/Media Star or summat.
I reckon coming as a Rock Star would be cool as hell while still abiding to the party rules...why the heck not turn my costume up a notch and get a huge-ass tattoo on me arm eh?
Since I'm not thin enough to pull off the Marilyn Manson mascara'd shock rocker look, I decided to go for a more classic Rock look and emulate Meatloaf or Ozzy Osbourne.
To those interested, you can find Abe Ke'Cik's tattoo stall at the far end of Damansara Uptown; at the corner where the food outlets/stalls area starts; Opposite the Kiosk outlet.
For an intricately designed tatt as the one I got, I paid RM60 plus another RM20 for the "LOVE" and "HATE" tatt on my fingers. The Henna ink he uses unfortunately only comes in the base colour: black.
There are a few outlets in KL, namely Bangsar Shopping Center, One Utama and Ikano Power Center where legit tattoo outlets also do Henna tattoos plus they come in other colours besides black ! Of course u'd have to pay more for colored tatts.
Since my design was intricate and 'Cik has never done a spiraling Dragon over the length of an arm before (Oh trust me, Cik is experienced indeed and have done personalized tattoos on far bigger and on more intimate areas--he makes house calls for those ones), he took a solid 4-5 hours to finish the artwork.
Imagine I walked into his stall along the Uptown Night Market area at 2 AM and left dazed and confused with a drying Henna tattoo on me arm the next morning around 6AM+
Looking back, it was worth it all that numbness in me arms holding it up for hours and feigning off sleep 'cos the tattoo turned up a beaut the next day when I peeled off the henna shell in the shower leaving a glistening, ferocious dragon on me left arm!
Well worth the price of entry and I might end up goin' to his stall again one of these days if I need a cool' tatt for a party or summat!
