Bellybutton rings...ha.. if you would have told me in high school that I would end up getting one, I would never have believed you. Once I got to college, I became a different person, less uptight even. *s* It all started when I got my butterfly tattoo last January... I became sort of obsessed with the whole "body art" image. I played around with the idea of getting my navel pierced.. but to be honest.. I was kind of scared of the whole idea! That is until people said that I wouldn't actually get it done. Yeah, I'm one of those "dare me and I'll do it to prove you wrong," type of people. So nine months ago I find myself back at the same tattoo parlor, ready and willing, to poke another hole into my body.

Ok..I'll be completely honest, I was scared to death! I made my sister go with me for moral support and also to help me pick out a cute little ring for my tummy. I ended up picking out a simple captive-bead hoop. Nothing really fancy.. but it definitely had the ability to be sexy. *g* The actual piercing is pretty much a blur to me... since I was so nervous. I just remember it hurting quite a bit, if only for a minute! The rest of the day I spent being extra careful not to even touch my stomach. A couple of days later I was fine... sporting my brand new sexy navel ring. I'm so very modest. *L*

I have a couple of pictures of my piercing that I've linked to this page... not that anyone really cares. Eh.. I guess you never know. *L* As much as I love my bellybutton ring.. I'm just really sick of my hoop. I think it's about time for a change.. most likely a barbell. Whenever that happens... I'll be putting new pics up. :)
