My piercing in Mexico! |
| ||||||||||||||||
Here's my little crazy story about my eyebrow piercing that IGot on my senior trip, try not to fall asleep. I was in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, On my senior tip and I really wanted to get my tongue pierced before I went but I wasn't able to, because I'm not 18. So when I first got down there a Friend of mine had got their eyebrow pierced, and I thought, I wouldn't get mine pierced down here. So I asked her if the place she got it pierced at was clean, and she said, "clean enough". I was still kind of worried, but after a couple of days I said f**k it I'm going to do it. But first I had to trick my mom or she would of put it down. So I told her that I won this contest to get a free piercing and that I had got my tongue pierced, man she flipped out because she against me getting else pierced cause I already have Both my ears and my cartilage. But after I told her I was joking, she finally said I could do it. But I didn't really win any piercing.
After I got that out of the way I went to this little tattoo parlor called "The Edge", it was clean for being in Mexico. So I asked " how much for my tongue to get pierced", but the guy I was asking barely spoke any English. There was this other guy there he spoke English just fine, but it was too bad he wasn't the one doing the piercing. He asked where I was from and I told him San Diego, then he said " I used to live in Compton", I was like that's great. Then I thought I think I would rather live in Puerto Vallarta than Compton. I have been and it's not a very nice place to live.
So the guy, I don't remember his name, told he
Charged 450 pesos for the tongue (cause that's what I really wanted pierced). But since it was my last day there and I spent all my money on alcohol and food, and I only had enough to get my eyebrow cause he charged 350pesos, for those that don't know that's about $35, So I said go for it. After I looked through about three boxes of barbells and hoops, I finally picked out the bar that I wanted. So the guy prepared everything, you know the clamp, needle, and what not. After, he put the dot over my eye to make sure that it was in a good spot, it was all gravy.
Right before he got the needle out I looked at __ him and his face was covered in sweat, like he just got done running the 10k or something. So I asked him "you know what you're doing, right?" He gave me this confused look and nodded his head yeah. Moreover, I was kind of
Worried cause this girl was next to me getting a tattoo. But the look on her face and the tears in her eyes looked like some body was cutting her back open slowly with a razor blade. It was weird cause I usually I have a big fear of needles, so I was somewhat scared to watch. I didn't even look at the needle cause if I did I probably wouldn't of done it. So I closed my eyes, I felt a little poke and I twitched. But the next thing I knew it was all done.
It did not hurt nearly as bad as I thought, but my healing process took a little longer than I expected. I do construction work, and when I would work, I would have to carry big pieces of wood. I would carry them on my shoulder cause they were heavy, and sometimes the wood would smack me in my face, sometimes hitting only my fresh new eyebrow piercing. After a Couple of weeks, Puss would start to ooze out and I thought it was infected, but I called a couple of piercing shops around my house, and I guess it was normal.
Now my eyebrow is all healed up. I just got my tongue pierced that did not hurt too bad, maybe I will write a story about that too. Both of my new piercings look very good and are getting a lot of attention from girls, especially my tongue. However, I'm not done yet I want to get my other eyebrow, my nipples, my labrea, and stretch my already pierced lobes to about an 8g. But I'm somewhat scared to stretch my lobes cause it looks like it hurts, but I will do it anyways. With piercings they hurt but only for a second, and after that, they just look good. I hope my story didn't put you to sleep, I will probably be writing again to tell about my other piercings soon to come. Much
Luv. Peace. BUG
