Story: I was at school a couple weeks ago and I heard tha some stupid little poser girl pierced her lip. So I kinda got pissed. I tried unsuccessfully to pierce it. I told my parents that I wanted my lip pierced and tey told me "hell no". I told my sister that I tried and she told me that she would take me to canada when I was 16 to get it pierced. I couldn't wait any longer.

I first put ice on my right side of my lip for 10 minutes and then I set a small safty pin in a bowl of hydrogen peroxide. I then took a lighter and heated the safty pin until it was warm, but not hot. I sat infront of my mirror and slowly poked the pin on my lip and it wouldn't go through so I tried again. I heated the safty pin again and faster I pushed it through the top layer of the skin on my lip until I heard it pop and until I heard the skin break.

Very stupidly, I pulled out the pin and planned on giving up. Until I realized that I broke the skin, I just sat there with a desperate look on my face. Once again I heated the pin and pushed it through until I could see a bulge on the inside. I let go of it, not pulling it out, but just sitting there I felt vomit start to flow up my esophogus. Quickly, I pushed the pin through until I saw the very end of the point. I pulled it out and it hurt like a mother fucker. Then I tried to push the earring in it, but I wouldn't go through more than 1/8 of an inch. I pushed another safty pin through and then took it out so I could make another attempt to put the earring through. It wouldn't go through. To my belief the earring was too big for the piercing, but that was the only earring I had for sensitive skin because mine is really sensitive. So now I am letting it heal and in 3 years I'll take my sister up on that offer to go to canada!
