My best friend is begging me to get my nose pierced. My little cousin just got her belly button pierced, and she keeps telling me how badly she thinks I need to get mine done. No thanks. I like body jewelry, but it’s just not for me. I do like buying various pieces as presents for them, but I can’t imagine getting any piercings other than my ears.
Hi, I’m 26 years old, and I don’t even have my ears pierced. Yep, you heard me right. It isn’t what you think. I’m not afraid of needles or anything. I just never wanted my ears pierced. I mean, I did when I was younger but my mom has a strict rule. No piercing our ears until we were adults. She firmly believes God would have put holes in our ears if he wanted them there, and she wasn’t about to give us permission to do so.
Of course I could have done what my sister did. I could have bought a home kit and pierced my own ears in the bathroom at school, but that just wasn’t me. I patiently waited it out, and I fully intended to pierce my ears on my 18th birthday. When my birthday rolled around I changed my mind. I decided I’d lived 18 years without them, so I just didn’t need to get them pierced.
I’m slowly starting to change my mind though. I’ve been considering taking that leap into joining the massive population of people without full lobes intact. I’ve seen too many super cute earrings lately that I would love to wear. Sure, I could just convert them to clip-ons like I’ve done many times, but I suddenly have the urge to go for the piercing.
Trust me, I’d loooove to have a breast reduction!
