New eyebrow piercing! You can also see on my right earlobe I got another piercing, to make 2. I have 2 on my left lobe (not shown ) but today also added a 3rd to the top of the ear at the cartilage.

I LOVE IT!

EDIT: Got my hair did.



Don't like the pic that much, but I just finished highlighting it about 15 mins ago.

Piercing is basically a pagan thing.
There's something about it that is not terribly close to Orthodoxy.

I don't think they're anti-Orthodox.

And, they didn't really hurt at all. I was expecting to scream with the eyebrow... but nope! With the 2 new ear piercings AND the eyebrow piercings, I didn't even flinch! It was weird feeling something go through there, but it didn't hurt at all.

Plus, I love it. This might sound silly, but this brought me out of my 3 week depression, haha. I am so excited. I REALLY love it! Most of my friends do, too.

I notice it's a love it or hate it thing. No in between from what I've heard so far.

I never understood the appeal of having someone impale me and then push a piece of metal through my flesh. Hence I have no piercings.

I know I can't convince you otherwise, but I can tell you to be careful where you get your piercings. Make sure they sterilize their needles and equipment. Also be careful about what you get pierced.

If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.


Justin, I suggest you keep it CLEAN and quickly find either a clear plastic plug or appropriately gauged fishing line if you wish to maintain the opening when you're inEVITABLY confronted with a employer who does not allow piercings beyond the ears.
