My Belly Button

Last Tuesday night I did something I have been wanting to do since I was about sixteen years old. I got my belly button pierced! No, that is not a picture of my belly button piercing, but, funnily enough, that is the exact same piece of jewelry I have on mine. EXACTLY. Except mine does not look as pretty because it is currently infected. I know, bummer. But belly button piercings are notorious for this, so I am not surprised. I am taking care of it, and it is getting better. I have a call in to my doctor for some medicine anyway, just to be sure that I get rid of the infection. Can't hurt, right?

I'm so excited about this. Seriously. As I said, I have wanted one since I was sixteen, but never got one. I don't know what made me decide to do this finally. I did it on impulse. I just decided to screw it and do what I wanted, not what I should do, or what I am supposed to do. I am doing something strictly for me. And I love it! It's so...liberating. Actually doing something because you want to, not because you have to or should. I suggest that everyone do this every once in awhile. It makes life a little more fun and interesting.
