Dutdutan 2009

Last September 18-19 of 2009, my sister joined the Dutdutan (Tattoo) Expo event at A Venue Events Hall, Makati Avenue, Makati.

Her tattoo is a Geisha on her right arm inked by Boh / Bong Pascasio (aka as the lead vocals of the Grin Department band). Sadly to say but she didn't won the medium size category but she managed to go through as one of the finalist. Hope to win one this year ^_^
