You've grown a tremendous amount in a year Maika! I think it took me longer to get to where you are, more like 1-1/2 to 2 years. Of course it's different for every person, but a year is still an impressive turnaround!
Do you have a theme going for your sleeve? I've been fascinated with tattoos my whole life, always wanted them but didn't think it was appropriate for a white collar family man. After S and D my whole outlook changed, I didn't care about what was "appropriate" anymore, LOL! I think I've mentioned it before but I've got an arm sleeve and leg sleeve, would have more if it wasn't so darned expensive to get high quality work. And while I thought my kids would think it was weird or embarrassing, they actually love it. If they hear someone comment on it they'll stop me so I can show the person or tell them about it. It's been pretty fun!
