The article discusses the author's desire to get matching tattoos with her best friend Kady during their upcoming backpacking trip in Southeast Asia. Initially enthusiastic, Kady's interest seems to wane due to worries about parental opinions and future job prospects. The author believes that tattoos symbolize cherished youth experiences, and she hopes to encourage Kady to embrace the idea. With a specific design in mind that reflects their friendship, she views taking this step as a bonding experience that will enhance their memories together.
I think Kady is worried about what other people think, including her parents. They told her that a tattoo will ruin her job opportunities later in life, but that's rubbish.
Tattoos aren't as taboo as they were 20 years ago, and we both think that they look good... Tattoos are a reminder of a particular time, and I want to cherish our youth.
