This is my first tattoo. I got it 3 years ago in march during spring break in college. The reason I got it was because of my mom. She always told me that if she ever got a tattoo then I could get one too. she ended up getting a tribal tattoo on her lower back, small, nothing too drastic. So I felt the need to top it. I thought, "well, I love stars. So maybe it'd make sense to do that as my first tattoo. And I want it to be big too." Originally it was supposed to be a cluster of stars on my neck falling off onto my shoulder. The tattoo guy didn't think that'd be a great idea, so he changed it. He did the clouds free styled. At first i was upset because he had changrd my idea around so much, but then grew to love it more and more. :)
