Those were some very valuable words right there. Actually, I think they even hold true for things other than tattoos. I have faced and will be facing most of the same problems due to my habit of dressing exclusively in black. I'm glad that I have friends who can see beyond that and hope I'll make many more in the future. But of course, the stares and degrading comments behind my back are things I'll have to cope with forever. People just are that way, aren't they? Job-wise, I'll certainly have to cut back on expressing myself in a similar way you have to as soon as I'll start looking for one after graduating next year. I hope we can both find jobs where we'll be accepted the way we are ^^
