First Tattoo - "Day"
December 1, 2007 - Since Kristin is teaching me, she picked out the designs she wanted me to tattoo. Later that day, I realized that the kanji's I tattooed meant "Day One." She swears she had no clue what they meant when she picked them out. Photo taken by Leslie Spillman www.myspace.com/lcsphotography.

Protection and Courage Symbols
According to Japanese legend if a koi succeeded in climbing the falls at a point called Dragon Gate on the Yellow River it would be transformed into a dragon. Based on that legend, it became a symbol of worldly aspiration and advancement. More generally, the Japanese associate koi (also known as carp) with perserverance in adversity and strength of purpose. Because of its strength and determination to overcome obstacles, it stands for courage and the ability to attain high goals..
