i have to do a persuasive essay.any ideas?

I turned 18 in december and i have always wanted a tattoo. i have drawn one that i want on my left arm, in the place where people normally get armband tats. But i cant get that one until i graduate (this june) because i will be going to the beach with my family in may. My mom doesn’t care but my dad would flip. So i decided to get another one but not quite as big on my inner left arm (a nautical star). And i was wondering if this would effect me getting a job in the future. I want to be a civil engineer and i plan to go to UNCC next fall.
Edit:
Thanks all of this has helped me a lot. But honestly for those of you who told me not to get it just because it was a “hype” i have reasons for getting this. I want this and have been wanting this for at least 5 years. I love my dad and all but more than half the time he never agrees with me, even if i am right. He just disagrees with the things i say because he thinks that his son can’t be smarter than him. So in a way it is sorta out of rebellion. Another reason is that for many people the nautical star means *** pride. It does for me. And i know im going to get a lot of arguement on this one but it means different things to different people. so if u have one and arent *** that doesnt mean the same for you. But for me it does. Also i was thinkin of having the number 13 layered over top of it to make it less generic, and because it is my lucky number.

I’m just wondering since I know there have been interviews saying what happened in between year 7 and the epilouge, so I was just wondering what did happen?
I did read the book, and did read the epilouge. I’m not an idiot people. I wanna know what JK has said happened between the final battle and epilouge

some input? B.A. in Security Management?

I’m really worried about the economy and looking for a quick certification so I can have some sort of qualification in case it totally goes under. I found a 14 credit hour renewable energy certification at a community college. Do you think this will do any good for finding jobs?
