It was nothing at all

So on Wednesday June 9 of 2009(yesterday) I got my tongue pierced, and it didn't even hurt.
I Feel like a big ole dork because I made this huge deal about it. I was sick to my stomach and shaking and all nerves and when I got to the little room with the piercer guy(whose name was Elby) I told him how I was big wreck and super scared to do it. He was nice he told me all about when he went to get his done and he was like that too. Anyway it was over in no time. I rinsed my mouth with some mouthwash, then he put this dot on my tongue, next he put the clamps on, and finally he told me he was going to line up the needle. So he did that and I was on the brink of crying pretty much and then he said okay here we go and before I could even feel it he was through and telling me okay we put the jewelry in and we are done. It was over in less then a minute and I had been a nut case about it for a week and a half. So now I am a happily pierced girl and I love it. Its swollen now so its hard to eat kinda but I am figuring it out. The moral: Don't be afraid to get something you really want done because it may hurt for a little bit.
