Pierced

I always regard piercing for boys as something inappropriate. Something is not right somewhere.

That is until now.

It was during a window shopping in KLCC. When suddenly I got inspired to get myself pierced. Out of no where, the enthusiast to try something different jz stuike me. So, I decided to pierce my ear. Told Denise and Thomas, and they gave me The-Rock-one-eyebrow-up-look. Thomas slapped himself and touched my forehead for fever indication.

So, a research was done. And it came to the conclusion that I will do it in Jusco, since Sungei Wang is like 10 LRT stops away. Supposingly, Thomas, Cynthia and Denise were supposed to witness the ritual, but it turned out to be ma hostel floormates.

Was suppose to pierce the left ear only. But the blood sucking lady wanna charge me 10 bucks for one. So I decided to pierce two for 15 bucks, for the sake of the value. Cheapskate me.

And here is me...
















Heh..yeng hoh?

It was a nervous process, especially when they are pointing a gun at ur ear for like 10 seconds, aiming for the right spot, then "Phiak!". Its in. *Process x2.*

After ten minutes, the ant-bite-like pain was dangling around my ears. I can see my ears red and swolen like Buddha's. But that's just for a while. One hour later, it will be as if u did nothing to ur ear.

The first thing I reached my room is called my mom. No, i din type wrong. I called my mom.

Mom: You today very free ah?
Me: Nah, jz feel like calling home.
Mom: So, everything fine?
Me: Ya everything is fine. Btw, I pierced my ears.
Mom:( calmly) Oh.
Me: (amazed) Aren't u surprised?
Mom: Kind of. What u expect me to do? Shout on the phone that u pierced ur ear?
Me: Er...no. Good point.
Mom: Why u go do le?
Me: Er...for fun la. Want to try some thing out.
Mom: Haiz. Wu liao hoh. No need study huh?
Me: Got la. As I sed, trying something out.
Mom: Mmm. Enuf ah. One time can d ah. No more pierce here pierce there ah. No more trying outs. Wu liao la. Tell u to go and study la.
Me: Zai la.

Phew. So i got the approval. Hehe. At least from one side. Dad? Dare not to speak of it on the phone. Leave it to mom telling him. My sis was unamazed. I told her and she was like: " Ya. I noe. Fashion maa!" Well.

Amazingly, my mom called two days later.

Mom: So, hows ur ear?
Me: Hah? Oh. Ok la. Like tat lo.
Mom: No pain ah? If got pain must apply antiseptic u noe. Or else it will rot.
Me: Wah. Tat serious ah?
Mom: Aiya. Exaggerating la. Anyhow, jz apply Zambuk la. Mz take care of it, u noe.
Me: Ooh.

Honestly, I din expect my mom to call and asked about it. It was a major breakthrough. Jz 2 years ago, she was limiting me on how many hours I have to spend on computers, nagging away even if I overused one minute. Now, she was asking how my piercing was. I am still kinda shell-shocked. Probably something to do with maturity and wisdom. Duno. Whatever la. Anyway, thanks for understanding, mom. Hehe.

And so, come to think of it, piercing ears wasn't so bad a move at all, here's why:

- I feel more yeng (perasan punya orang!!)
- It boost my confidence one way or other.
- It post up a "Don't mess with me" message. May probably scare off the parang-wielding guys.

Out for now.
