Cowboy boots ad nose piercings

Sooo I pierced my Nose. Big freaking deal, but for me it is. I've always wanted to do it, but out of respect for my mom I didn't. But I decided since it was something that I wanted, and I found a good friend who would do it at a decent price (since my budget doesn't allow much lately) I alerted my mother that I would be doing it. Since she probably didn't believe me, she said she didn't want me to pierce my nose but I can. Sooo I did. Sooner then she was expecting, even sooner then I was expecting! I didn't even know that day I was doing it, until I had it done. It was a not-so-spontaneous but spontaneous decision. So far, I like it. It's definitely going to take some getting used to, right now It feels awkward because i can feel it on my face. I'm not going to lie, it HURT to get this done. Nikki was nervous to go first and since I felt brave, I went. I wasn't expecting the god damn thing to hurt so bad but it did. I also don't like things shoved up my nose, so that made for an interesting time. I pulled away from David when He was jabbing the needle in my face (silly me) and then I gushed blood. I said some pretty unlady like things that I usually only say when I'm in the privacy of my own car and then it was Nikki's turn! (she almost fainted with the needle in her nose, at least she didn't bleed everywhere) Poor David, he probably should have charged more. I was also very scared to go home the next day, because I knew that my mom would not like that I went and got my nose pierced on the spur of the moment. So I didn't go home until Saturday (this took place on a Thursday) and I tried to take the stupid nose ring out so I could hide out for a bit, but then I thought to myself, I'm a adult, I can make stupid decisions like this, and I'm happy with this one, and she will need to get used to it!" and plus I couldn't get the thing out without hurting myself, and Its complicated. But when She saw me I said "I hate to tell you but I....PIERCED MY NOSE!" and all she said was "argghhhuuhhh" and walked away. that was that, shes not happy about it, but she knows that she can't do anything about it.

I'm not crying in this photo, I was just trying to look traumatized

You can't see it to well, but there is the finished product!

Well that among other things. FINALLY done with summer semester, holy buckets. It seems like it just started and then WHAM its over. Its has been stressful as hell, but fun I suppose. I did like all of my classes, and I met some new people. That is really the best part of college is the people that you meet. It's cool growing up with everyone in high school, but it's even cooler to be thrown in a mix of people who are already grown up. It just kind of sucked having to go full time during the summer. When its miserably hot, all you want to do is sleep or swim. I kept myself busy this summer with work and school, that's why it has flown by so fast! Its not over yet.. Next week will be DIABETES CAMP! Although I am unable to be a counselor this year, I get to come up and help for a few days, which is just as fun I guess. I'm excited to be around everybody and I'm praying that there is no conflicts. fingers crossed. It should be an awesome week because its western week! Hell freaking yeah! I have waited all my life for it to be western week at camp (ironically when I can't be a counselor) but still. Perfect timing too because I have just invested in some cowboy boots :) Childrens cowboy boots to be exact, lucky me! They were about 100 dollars cheaper then normal adult sized boots. I love, love, love them!

Plus I've have been able to get over a lot of things easier. The less I focus on those silly little things (boys, stupid not-so-friends) The happier I am. I can't dwell on the mistakes I have made and I can't dwell on what I can't fix. I need to remeber things happen for a reason and even if the reason isn't apparent, it will show itself eventually. I'm better then what I let people make me think. If you don't want me in your life, well thats your decision and I'll be happy with whatever it is. One last thing, I may have touched on this already, but actions speak louder then words, apologize all you want but you're not truely sorry until you're willing to show it.
