Inhale ; Exhale . . .

Why is it that no decision comes easy?

I'm seriously ridiculously inconsistent, & I've realized that friends/fam tend to have somewhat of a huge impact on my life. This whole tongue piercing b.s. is stressful. I want to get it NOW, cuz I know between now & school, it would be the perfect time to allow it to heal. But then my parents don't approve, my stepdad is in my corner (which is a HUGE plus) but my dad has these old conventional theories (tongue piercings = dirty smuts), as well as my whole entire spanish family. I can get it tomorrow, and deal w. the whole wrath of the devil, or i can wait 11 days until my birthday.

I know who I am, and a dirty smut I am not ! It's just gonna be soooo much stress trying to convince people to look at me the same. It's something I've ALWAYS wanted, but people tend to live in their own world & their own mentalities. How is it possible for me one day to be a young, independent & intelligent lady, and the next to be a "dirty smut" because of a metal barbell in my mouth?

I thank everyone before me who has given tongue piercings such a reputation, but hopefully I can create a new wave. (Highly unlikely ) lol.
