so here's a fun story in the life of me...
Saturday night I hung out with some friends I know from bair lake/gvsu/canada :) . Well, as random as can be, abby and jess (jess being the awesome Canadian, eh?) decide "Hey! Let's go get our ears pierced again!" I love randomness, so I was all for it. Well... I wasn't totally planning on getting another piercing myself, but I was all for going. :) So I found a place in holland called Off the Wall who was open until 9 and after getting a little lost, we showed up around 8:40ish.
i felt kinda bad, but piercings are quick i guess. Abby decides to get her rim pierced and jess decides to get her tragus done. (great word isn't it? it's that little part closer to the inside of your ear closest to your face.) Spur of the moment, I say oh what the heck, I'll get my tragus done too.
So all goes well with abby, and jess, and then it comes to me. With a needle already in my tragus, the guys says, and i quote "Oops." I was completely calm up until this point. Now, I am freaking out. I may look ok in the picture, but in reality, not so much.
Turns out, my tragus is almost too small to pierce. This would have been great to know ahead of time. The clamp that he was using kept slipping out of place. SO... he had to take the clamp completely off and take the needle out of my tragus, and the go BACK and free-hand it through the rest of the way. To say the least, it hurt. just a little bit. but after some blood and a little more pain getting the earring in, all was good. except for me wanting to strangle our interesting friend Larry. Don't worry, I stayed totally Love Wins through the whole experience. :)
With that, we left to go watch a movie (Garden State, kinda weird, but pretty good) and take some more random pictures. Overall, a really fun night.
And I still really like my new piercing.
