HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!! I HAVE 12 PIERCINGS NOW!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!! you see, i'd been planning on getting at least 3 more in my ears, but then i found some other good places to put earrings into my ears, so that number went from 3 to 5, and now it's down to 4 because I GOT A NEW ONE!!! so now i have one midway up my left ear. when i'm done (as plans stand at the moment) i'll have 7 in each ear, my tongue and my bellybutton, so 16! hehehehe. piercings are fun! and i did this one myself too. so now i've done 4 of my own. you see, i think going to a shop to get a lobe piercing doen is just ridiculous, because who on ear would want to pay 50 for a lobe piercing. going to a shop for a lobe piercing is fine if you want it stretched, or big, or an orbital or something, but just a simple little one like mine, no. which is why i did it myself. :>
i'm not sure at the moment if the one cartilage one that i want i'll do myself or go to a shop. i think probably a shop, because i don't really want to pierce cartilage myself. although if i can find a hair salon that'll do it (even though doing cartilage piercings with a gun violates every known health code there is) then i'll go there, because i do like paying 15$ as opposed to 50$ but we'll see. one thing that helped me decide not to do the cartilage one first was that then i'd have a healing piercing on each side of my head, making it very difficult to sleep on either side. so now the numbers in my ears are slightly lopsided, 6 in my left and 4 in my right, but oh well. :> c'est la vie, et je suppose que je vais vivre encore. salut!
