Shooting Star Tattoo

Shooting Star tattoo: This is Marin’s first tattoo. Marin got this tattoo in two phases during nursing school. Marin got the star in junior year, and the tails in senor year. It was an ongoing thing. Meliponini would say, “You can do this; you can go above and beyond.” This was because nursing school was hard.

Stars Tattoo

Stars tattoo. This was their second tattoo. Marin got this one for their dad who passed when they were thirteen. They were really into astronomy together. Marin still has a pair of his binoculars. He would wake Marin up in the middle of the night for a meteor shower. They would go out and sit on the deck and watch the stars. They would go to shuttle launches. Marin got these stars in honor of him.

Crest of Hyrule Tattoo

Crest of Hyrule tattoo: This tattoo is from the video game series, Legend of Zelda. After Marin’s dad died, Marin’s mom decided drinking was a good coping mechanism. Marin and their brother started playing Ocarina of Time. He and Marin both have the same tattoo. It was a game that got them through a hard time in their lives. They decided to this get this symbol as a show of strength. They persevered through that time together.

Love One Another Tattoo

Love One Another tattoo. Marin got this tattoo for their mom. She died when Marin was fourteen. Marin’s mom was the most loving people Marin has ever known. She taught Marin how to care for people and instilled that into Marin. Marin wanted something to remember her by that spoke to who she was as a person.
