FIRST TATTOO<\/strong><\/h1>\n

An all-star softball player in high school, Yanez understands what a victory next month means for her career but has a story to tell with tattoos.<\/p>\n

Today, every time she looks at her tattoos it reminds her of a period in her life like the owl, which she sports on her right arm. An owl is an animal that reminds Yanez of her parents, who she says were wise.<\/p>\n

SIGNIFICANCE OF TATTOO<\/strong><\/h1>\n

\u201cThe day I turned 18, I went to get a little tiny tattoo on my wrist of music notes; I didn\u2019t know why I just like music,\u201d whose friends have worked on her tattoos. \u201cI am not kidding, a week after I went to get my whole side rib and then I couldn\u2019t stop.\u201d<\/p>\n

Furthermore she added, \u201cI have a lot of tattoos and they have meanings like a timeline of my life. My right arm symbolizes my family and the left arm is about a sad tragedy of when they died and what I did to survive that and how I became who I am today.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is cool because sometimes I forget I have them until people point them out,\u201d Sometimes I remember and I look down and say darn I really have for a thirty-year-old I have a lot and shows what I have been too. For me tattoos are a book. People get them to look cool but I\u2019ve been getting them for ten years, so it is more of a story for me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Music runs in her family; hence, she has musical notes. She can not sing but her sister can, and her parents had a band.<\/p>\n

A love poison, a skeleton and a rat fill her left side.<\/p>\n

ADDING MORE ART<\/strong><\/h1>\n

\u201cPeople ask me why I have a rat, well, it is because yes rats are gross, but they will survive the apocalypse. It was either that or a roach and represents me being a survivor long story short.\u201d<\/p>\n

A passionate fisherwoman, she plans on adding more tattoos. No tattoos represent her fighting career yet, but she plans on adding one.<\/p>\n
