Goodbye my neckpiercing

I had this piercing done around May/June 2009.
It was a very special piercing to me. 
I got it at Iris, at Patras. 
That along with a tattoo, where my best memories of living in Patras for 2 years.
But above all, this was done by one of the kindest, gentlest human beings I've ever met. 
He was a tattooer and piercer named Andreas. A middle-aged man full of life, respect and positivity. He always gave discounts to students, was welcoming, ready to give you candy or juice during a piercing or a tattoo.
This man passed away a few years ago, so my tattoo and that piercing (both of which I got the same day, my last day in Patras) mean so much.
Reminders of my time there, my first time living by myself, my first time as a university student; but also reminders of a great man who was always hospitable and kind.

USA election results 2016

I woke up to the horrendous reality that Donald Trump will be the president of the United States of America -most probably.
Even though I live in Europe I am deeply affected by the result, as a human being who cares for her fellow human beings.

America, the whole world was looking at you today. We were all hoping that you'd vote against the new Hitler, Trump.
We were hoping you'd prove those people who say Americans are manipulated puppets without critical thinking wrong.

But no. You, very unfortunately, proved all of us right.

And here comes the question, what is the meaning of democracy when those who exist in the democracy as a majority are uneducated, easily manipulated people? When their ideology goes against those which we have established as right and moral?

Today you didn't "make America great again." On the contrary, you made it horrible. Good bye America. Good bye.
