Well before i got my eyebrow pierced i wanted to pierce my tongue. I didnt even want to ask my parents because they were crazy ass bitches. My aunt had recently got her tongue pierced and decided 2 weeks later that she was too old for it.But she said it didnt hurt at all. She took it out and i heard nothing about it again. So i was like hmmmm, i want my tongue pierced. I forgot about it for about a month. Then i was messing around in my aunts bathroom and found her barbell. I decided to take it and MAYBE.. pierce my tongue. I didnt do it. I kept putting it off and putting it off.

Then one day in the summer about 3 days before I went back to skoo, i got the balls to do it. I got my earing that got used to pierce my ears with (very sharp) and put it in some alchol. I then got another "hospital" needle that i had used before and also put that in the alchol. I really didnt know why i had both a earing and a needle but i did. I went in to my bathroom and got ready to pierce. I washed my mouth out with some cheap ass mouth wash and marked the spot i wanted to pierce. I kept just staring at the needle and back to the tongue. I was scared. I took the needle and took a deep breath. I pushed the needle hardly a little bit and my tongue started to bleed. I was like "fuck man, it didnt even go through and its already bleeding" So i took the Needle out, got some tissue and blotted up the blood. I approched the next try differently, I held my tongue with the tissue so my tongue was streched out. This time it went farther, but bled more. I took out the needle once again and blotted up the blood. I was getting tired of standing so i decide to move to my bed. I ripped off the mirror and went and sat down on my bed.I placed the mirror so i could see. I brought in a towel because this bitch was bleeding. I like the last way so i again held my tongue and made myself go all the way through. I could hear it tearing, and when i got to the bottom of my tongue thats when it hurt. I quickly took out the needle and examined my tongue. It was bleeding, but not bad, I had forgoten to clean the barbell so i got some alchol and put it in there. I took off the ball and tryed to put it through. I wouldnt fit. No matter what i did it wouldnt fit through the hole.So I still wanted my tongue to at least look pierced so i found a big silver ball earing, washed it and put it through. The tongue was still bleeding and getting on my nerves. I kept swooshing my mouth with water and listerine and it finally stoped.

I did this at night time right before i went to bed, so i was like "im going to choke on this stupid thing" So i just decided if i was going to choke i was going to choke. I woke up the next morning with no earing in my tongue and a big ass swollen tongue. i quickly got a new earing and put it back through. YES!! it didnt close up!! But i still wonder to this day what the hell happened to my earing? I havnt found it in my bed or anything??? Everyone thought i was cool that i showed, and i fooled everyone that i wasnt a earing, that i was a barbell.I kept my piercing for a couple days and decided having a earing in my tongue was stupid and i would talk my parents in to letting my pierce my tongue. I took it out and there was this big ass nasty bump looking thing on my tongue...WTF??? I could still easily put the earing in and out but it was still there. So every couple hours i would use either a mix of peroxide and water or a mix of listerine and water. That big ass nasty bump thing went away in a couple days. About 3 days after i took it out i told my mom i pierced my tongue by myself and she got pissed. "WHY DID YOU DO THAT?? THAT WILL GET YOU INFECTED, DID YOU WASH IT?" And so on and so on.

~update...I got my eyebrow pierced and still no tongue. I asked my grandmother what she thinks about me getting my tongue pierced and she said she would disown me...WTF??? My whole family thinks the only reason i want my tongue pierced is the SEXUAL parts of it, thats not it at all ::wink:: ::wink:: its because it looks cool. BUT IT WILL BE DONE... I GARUNTEE IT!!!! Ive recently :kinda: talked my mom in to it. Shes getting a tattoo soon and i said "how about when you get you tattoo i get my tongue pierced?" she said maybe. I keep telling her she should just let me because if i dont get it professionally dont im going to do it myself and INFECT myself so she sould let me do it.
