Piercings

Bored at 5 in the morning, so what's a better thing to do than talk about my piercings that I have and had have.

Lip - 3 or 4 years
Smiley - 2 years
Gauges - On and off 3 years
Nose - Done twice, fallen out both times.

Lip: I got my lip done when I was 13 turning 14 I believe. The piercing shop barely even let me get it. My mom practically had to beg them to do it for me.

Smiley: I did this myself randomly one night when I got home from underground. Why? I don't know. It's been stretched to a 10 or 12 gauge, but it's back at an 18 gauge again. I've taken it out for months at a time about 2 times, and actually just recently put it back in. This will always be my favorite piercing because: 1. I did it myself; 2. Alex hates it : )

Gauges: The first time I stretched my ears, it was freshman year, and completely random. I pierced my ears, stuck nails in them (about an 8 gauge), then shoved those asian hair stick things in them (about a double zero). All in one night. I'm very impatient, didn't wanna wait to stretch them to a zero over weeks. Of course, my ear tore a little and bled everywhere. Then, the second time I stretched them, I went straight to a zero with tapers. My ears were swollen, throbbing, I couldn't sleep and they never actually healed. My dad saw them and made me take them out. They never fully closed. Now this time - I put size 4 tapers in, the next day 2's, and the day after, 0's. They went right through like nothing due to them not being fully closed, and that's where I'm at now.

Nose: This piercing has most definitely been cursed. The first time I got it, it fell out in my sleep and it hurt too bad to put it back in. The second time, I got it done at Elite Piercings for free cause Alex played a show there with Scourge and the band could get free piercings and if they didn't want them, they could give them to someone else. So, Alex got my nose pierced for me. Of course, that one fell out, but it was in a little longer than the other. Hurt too bad to put it back in. Have to get it repierced. I'm getting a fucking hoop this time!
