This is a research paper I wrote for my English II class in High School. This is a subject I feel very strongly about, which is why I chose to write my paper on this topic. It was written in MLA format (although I'm not sure how well MLA will show up on here AND I decided to leave out my header for personal privacy). All sources are cited. Forgive me if there are grammatical errors, or errors with my citations. I mean not to steal information, or other people's hard work, but I mean to make a point to anyone who is willing to read the words I have written. To me, writing this paper to get my point across was more important than writing this paper to make sure all my grammar was correct.
 
***************************************************

   Take a moment and think about all the people you know. Of those people, think about how many of them have at least one tattoo. Now think about yourself. Would you ever consider getting a tattoo? Maybe you want a little infinity sign on your wrist, or maybe you want full-blown sleeves. But you can't get either of those things. Nope, not if you want to get a job. Or at least, that's what everyone's saying. But should that be what they're saying? Don't we, as humans, have the right to be ourselves -- to express ourselves? Don't we have those freedoms? Yet it seems like all you ever hear anymore is, "they won't hire you if you have a tattoo" or "you should wait to get a tattoo until you have a job". Why should we have to put those things off? Shouldn't employers be happy to get good workers regardless of whether or not they have tattoos? But the situation is a bone of contention. People argue that "tattoos are offensive" and that they "make you look unprofessional". But it's 2016. Our society needs to wake up and realize that things are changing. Young adults and teenagers should not have to worry about having inked skin. We should have the freedom to do what we want with our bodies. Tattoos should be accepted into the workforce.

My Ex - Crush by thefadedwhite
97 parts Ongoing
"I wish I had never met you!" Deepika's voice echoed across the classroom, each word a dagger to my heart. "Excellent! At least we finally agree on something!" I fired back, even as a tear betrayed the storm of emotions within me. With those final, stinging words, Deepika stormed out, leaving a heavy silence in her wake. The classroom felt like a graveyard, and I stood there, rooted to the spot, desperately wishing I could chase after her and demand the truth. Maybe letting her go was the right choice. Perhaps this is meant to be my unfinished love story, a tale of what-ifs and almosts... ✨ No Deepika. This can't be his bike. Not Arjun's. But I couldn't deny what I saw-the familiar brown Royal Enfield, now twisted and crushed. My heart hammered as I circled around, hoping, praying it wasn't true, until my gaze landed on the number plate: TN56 0809. Arjun's bike. Deepika! Stop imagining things! Arjun would be fine! I felt the world shift, the noise around me blurring into a single, deafening hum. Ambulance and police sirens echoed, and a stranger's voice broke through: "Two boys. Spot dead. College students." I clutched my chest, gasping for air as reality slammed into me. "Arjun..." I whispered, barely holding myself together. Tears stung my face as I sank beside the wreck. "No, Please, No!" My voice cracked as the weight of regret settled in, suffocating me. ✨ Ex-Crush: More than just a crush, but a little less than love. ✨ Arjun and Deepika were hopelessly in love-only they never realized it. Will they find their way to each other, or will their love story remain forever unfinished? ✨ Join Arjun and Deepika on a journey back to those dreamy college days-days where every moment felt eternal, love was unspoken yet ever present, where friendship bloomed like wildflowers, offering a sanctuary from the harsh winds of reality. Come, wander with them through the corridors of college days, where the echoes of laughter still linger.
