Ole Black 'N' Blue Eyes.

So I'm in the mood to blog on this wonderful valentine's day. Okay... more like a rant on  yesterday's events. I had a crappy day at work yesterday. I made a huge, noob mistake. In an attempt to make myself feel better, I told my mom. Thing is, I just got lectured and she made it a point to tell my dad who, right when I woke up, mentions and inquires this mistake to me before I have my cup of coffee. So now, I'm kinda pissed. Possibly the caffeine deprivation talking. But still, I hate how people love to gossip and how others can be so nosy. My family especially. Basically a family event isn't complete without some gossip, and I mean a few hours. It's pretty infuriating, especially when you're the subject of it. More specific to my mother, she over exaggerates. To the point to where she makes up things that people say. You know how people paraphrase? She makes shit up.  No joke. It's like, "I was there, they did not say that at all". But yeah... I should probably stick to blogging. That way, I won't get annoying parents lecturing and interrogating me every fucking day. 

On a more positive note, I'm getting my ears pierced tomorrow! I think I'm gonna stick with the double helixes and if I'm in the mood, getting 1 or 2 lobe piercings. Good thing I'm getting another paycheck on Thursday. But yeah, I wanted to get my mom's approval although... I could totally get it without her permission since I'm 18. But yeah, I'll tell you about how that went. So I was talking to my mom and asked if it would be okay if I got my ears pierced. Then she asked me, "why? you already have your ears pierced. where?" so I show her the top cartilage part of my ear. Then she made a face as if she saw the most disgusting thing in her life. Then she asked, "why? what kind of person gets that kind of thing pierced?" and I responded that that's one of the most common out of most cartilage piercings. Since my mom's a nurse, she told me I would get infected from those types of piercings. But I mentioned that I researched the piercing place and how they have their our sterilization area in their store as well as a disposal area for all their used needles. Plus, each piercing tool is individually packaged to further prevent infection. Then she said, "you won't get hired from a professional business with those piercings." But I told her that usually facial piercings are prohibited and I'm only going to get parts of my ears pierced. In addition, I have a professor–who is also a successful graphic designer–who has basically half a sleeve of tattoos on his arm. After that, she really couldn't say anything else. She then told me, "[your friend] doesn't have one. None of your friends have those. Why do you want to get it?" But I told her that it was my decision and I'm not getting it because anyone else is. I just wanted it for myself. She finally responded with, "it's up to you." I don't think she knows that I'm getting pierced so soon after our conversation, she probably thinks it's a phase which it definitely isn't. I've wanted to get pierced for a while. Maybe if I somehow move out in the long run, I'll get my lip pierced. But that might be a little harder to convince my mom. 

So I'm getting swamped with homework next week. I'm so glad we have a holiday on Monday. I think I can get some work done because I don't have to go to work till 4:30 (I basically have like, 4-ish hours until I have to leave for work!). Or... I could watch a certain movie that I haven't watched for the fifth time, although I was planning it. I think I'll do the latter. Because I don't want my brain to explode. Plus, I need some violence just to calm me down. I know, that's kinda twisted. I get relaxed from watching people kick other people's asses. Yeah, I think I'll watch it. Definitely. 

Alright, need food. And coffee. 

The End.
