19-Year-Old Gets Her Favourite Chinese Takeaway Order Tattooed On Her Side

A dedicated woman took a bet with her mother to the next level by getting her favourite Chinese takeaway order tattooed on herself.
You've got to hand it to her, this is real dedication - not only to winning a family bet, but also to Asian cuisine.
It's all in a day's work for Ellie Campbell, a 19-year-old graphic designer from Horsham, West Sussex.
You see, Ellie was off to get her first tattoo and her mum made the mistake of betting her that she wouldn't have a tattoo of her favourite takeaway order.

The prize - a Chinese takeaway, of course.
With that in mind, Ellie now has 'sour sweet chicken, beef fried noodles, fried rice with egg, and chicken ball' tattooed on the side of her torso.
Say what you want about the tattoo and the bet, that's a solid Chinese order.

Ellie told LADbible: "Originally, when we made the bet, my mum said she'd treat me to a Chinese if I got it done."
"She honestly didn't think I'd get it done at the time. She is yet to buy me one, however.
"I think if she pays, she wants me to go and order one with my new tattoo!"
Sounds like a plan. A stunt like this deserves at least a free meal.
Ellie continued: "This is actually my first tattoo! I've never really been serious about tattoos before but I never back out of a bet!
"I honestly think it says a lot about me as a person, I think the irony of me being a graphic designer and getting my Chinese order tattooed, of all things, says a lot!"

So, what does a tattoo artist say when someone asks for something like this? This must be a strange one, even for them.
Ellie said: "When I first arrived, he [the tattoo artist] questioned me about it at first.
"He almost seemed nervous to ask, as this was my first ever tattoo.
"I said that it was my Chinese order and at first he laughed, obviously thinking I was joking. He asked me if I was joking, to which I replied that I was being serious!
"He then laughed and almost praised me for being so bold. He said not many grown adults, let alone a 19-year-old, would ever have the balls to get their Chinese order tattooed on them!"

That much is certainly true, fair play.
Let's hope that her mum pays up soon enough, and she'll certainly think twice before doubting her daughter again when making a bet.
