Updates

So I haven’t posted in a while! What’s been going on:

• Trey and I became official. :)
• I got the industrial piercing! (pictures to come)
• I finished my fourth semester at Liberty.
• I flew to Texas for the summer.

That’s pretty much it. I’ll elaborate in the future when I get the chance. I’ve been kinda boring/busy lately. 

I DID IT!!

I got my tragus pierced. :) 

Melissa and I went to price piercings at Caspian’s today (my industrial and tragus, her nose) with a group of friends. I had the money for one of the two, so I went for it. 

It. Was. Awesome.

Most of my other piercings (2 more pairs of lobes and a helix/cartilage) were done with a gun at a jewelry store (similar to Claire’s) in Malaysia, and that was the only option.

Apparently the gun technique is frowned upon in piercing salons here in the United States, so my tragus was done via needle. While piercing with a gun is faster, it hurts more. With a needle, it was slower (but by slow, I mean, a minute MAX), and less painful. I felt the needle enter, heard my cartilage pop, she put the jewelry in, and it was over. My piercer was awesome, too. She talked me through what she was doing, answered any stupid questions I had, and was super sweet about everything. (her name was Nycole, for anyone who knows or is going to use Caspian’s)

I’m DEFINITELY going back to get my industrial done. Super clean, super friendly, super helpful. A bit on the pricier side ($45 for tragus, and $65 for industrial), but it’s definitely worth it. They also sell aftercare saline solutions and swabs and stuff. 

OMG AND I LOVE MY PIERCING. (it just hurts to smile, cause it moves the piercing haha) I got a barbell labret with a black gem on the front. I don’t know if I’ll switch it out when it heals, but it’ll take a few months so I have time to decide. 

Pictures to come later, when I have time to clean out my camera. :)

Me Sleep-Deprived:

First I was like: 

and then I was like:

So I’ve been seriously considering it….

…and I’ve decided that I’m going to get a tragus piercing in my right ear, and an industrial piercing in my left. 

Like, seriously considering it. Doing research. Looking at my ears in mirrors. Etc, etc. 

I’m so excited. 

Right now, my left ear has 3 lobe piercings, and my right has 3 lobes and a helix/cartilage piercing. Count that. That’s 7. Add the future tragus and industrial, and that makes 10.

BAM SON. 

Have I mentioned how excited I am?

Of course, I won’t get both ears done at the same time. That’d be stupid. I like to rest my head sideways when I sleep sometimes. 

But I definitely want to get at least my tragus done before I leave Lynchburg for the summer.

If When I have the money.
