When I was in the 2nd grade I had my ears pierced, I was 7 years old; I fainted.
I remember them marking my ears and being embarassed when the woman called over people to look at how small my ears are.
Then I remember that popping sound the piercing gun made. The next thing I can recall is my mom saying, "oh my God, put your head between your legs, put your head between your legs!" After that the next thing I knew everything around me kinda swirled and went from blue to grey to black.
My dad had to carry me out of the jewelry store and when I came to we were in the luncheonette at Britt's department store, with my dad trying to force feed me a buttered bagel. :tongue:
I was so embarassed! :frown1: My best friend Jill from next door had come along for the ride and she was a year older and already had pierced ears. :redface: She was cool though and didn't make fun of me at all.
Dad was convinced I fainted because I hadn't had breakfast. I was convinced I would never have anything pierced on my body again. I kept my word; and he still tries to make me eat breakfast. :smile:
