Well I think ill start my story with some background and then go from there so hear goes. For as long as I can remember I have wanted to get my tongue pierced. The only problem was my parents didn't exactly approve of it. I asked them all the time to think about it but it was always a flat no. Even though I was past the age of them not need to sign, I still couldn't do it (they threatened to cut off my money from them).

Location alberta So when I went down to visit my uncle and real father at my uncle's parlor, I asked my dad if I could and he said ya, he was totally cool with it. Don't think he really knew all the many reasons to get your tongue pierced (haha). So I gave my uncle my id and filled out the papers and picked out the jewelry. And bonus I was getting this done for free since my uncle has never once in my life given me b day gift. This was to make up for the 17 years of gifts.
He took me back to what he like to call his room of hell just to scare people. He put me on the "dentist" chair and told me to relax. At this point I was freaking out, I'm not very good with pain and even though everyone says it doesn't hurt. I found it rather hard to think that a huge needle being jammed into my tongue wasn't going to hurt. So he told me what he was going to do then he put the clamp on my tongue, at this point I was ready to scream and leave I couldn't believe how much this hurt. He told me to calm down and count backwards to 5, I did so and I at about 3 I felt a tingling pain in my tongue and then some more pain when he put the jewelry through. It hurt that one is for sure but not as much as I thought it would as all. I felt something wet come from my mouth and ewe it was drool. My uncle laughed and said it was normal yet he was still going to make fun of me for the tears that came out of my eyes. He told me all the after care stuff and gave me a sheet th at had it all nicely printed out. And was sure to add that id be back. And well I know I will be, it was such a rush I want to get something else pierced right there. But we went back to the front where my dad was and showed him. He said it looked retarded but I didn't care I was so happy. Plus he's an old guy and my dad I might add cant hope he doesn't say it looks hot or expect him to understand it. My uncle said it was awesome and that he was happy he got to do it.
We went for lunch after and this was very painful for me. I love food and well I could eat anything I wanted, when I was about to order my uncle kept saying no to every little thing I wanted. Finally I ended up getting some soup and wow I didn't realized how difficult it was gong to be to eat. I literally couldn't keep the soup in my mouth cause I kept trying to chew on my barbell. So I ended up stopping for some slim fast, which was still rather hard. But sadly that wasn't the end to my story.
On my drive home it came to me on what I was going to face when I came in the door of my moms house. But when I did my mom didn't notice (she thought my lisp was just getting worse) but my step dad isn't that dumb he noticed and screamed at me for about an hour. He said he understood and what not. And that since I already went through the pain that there was no point to taking it out but that id better take care of it good.
Well to my surprise I'm still alive and not grounded from everything in the world. I still have to face my mom, and well that will be... let's say hard. My tongue has started to swell a bit but not that much, and well its starting to hurt a bit too. But its so worth it, I think it looks amazing, and I cant wait to show some certain people. Yet so sad I cant kiss or eat normally for weeks, but oh well. HELLO I HAVE GOTTEN MY DREAM PIERCING! One of the happiest things ever! Lets just hope it stays in my tongue
