As most the stories I have read, my experience has been inspired by BME. Being very interested in art, I was always willing to see things different. So once my sister introduced me to BME I have been addicted. Having no piercing, I looked and found many kind of piercing of which appealed to me. Two piercing I saw, two of which I much desired, a septum, or a pair of side lowbrets. I had a long time to think about this, for I play football and wish not to have either, because getting hit in the face is very common. Also trying to get permission off my parents became very hard, and involved a lot of badgering. Finally I received an answer, not a very welcome one, but better then a no. They told me I was to wait, they didn't tell me how long. So wait I did, still trying to decide which of thee two piercing would best suit me.

Awaiting an answer, I proceeded to ask my friends, most of which thought it would be crazy to do either. But of those, who decided to answer my question constructively told me my septum would be best suited. With my mind filled with different points of views and opinions I decided to log back onto BME and read some more experiences and look further at the pictures. While looking and reading, I knew that the lowbrets would be the best, I do not know why, but I had made up my mind. Lowbrets it was to be.
Now, that my mind was now fixed on getting such a piercing, it was time to ask my parents, once again. I hesitated, for it was not an easy question to ask, with much leniency. At length I blurted the question, "When is it, I am able to get the piercing I long"? They seemed to ignore me, for the time being but later approached me. They hated the idea, for they found both the septum, and lowbrets revolting. Telling me "do what you wish" made it very hard for me. For now I had another decision to make. Knowing my parents would look at me with disgust made me feel uneasy. But I had studied, and done much researched and loved thee lowbrets such a way, making it feel that I had already had them.
This problem delayed my piercing once again. At school I continued to ask questions, and talk about it more freely. Until people started to grow tired or the questions and now boring talk. Soon people started asking when I was getting my lowbrets, and most thought it had become a joke, and that I had given up on the idea. But it was still hot in my mind. I grew very tired of thought over the piercing, and then decided that, I shall get it done. Although not entirely planed.
While down at the Eastland shopping center with my sister, I began talk of the piercing and told her I was very interested in getting my lowbrets, very soon. With the piercing studio close by, the idea became action. My sister had been to this piercing studio many times before, and I had also been in their, very nice people they are. And I thank them for that. My sister and I proceeded towards the studio, and I became very nervous. I had not yet thought of my parents and did not until I was within the studio, getting the jewelry I had brought elsewhere, sterilized. It was then that I had called my parents to tell them of the news, and pleased they were not. But I continued.
Once my jewelry was ready, I was told to have a seat, and wait a second. I assume my pierce went and got their tools. Anxiously I waited. But soon they returned they advanced to give me instructions on what was to happen. It was very basic, and was told it would not hurt. The markings where put on my face and they looked to be just about perfect. Then the alcohol was put on to sterilize the area, it tasted foul. Then the fun began, the clamp was put onto the left lowbret, which I thought was to be worst part of both the piercing. With the clamp in place the needle went through. I could slowly feel the needle tunneling through my lip. The adrenaline was amazing, I thought it to be a grand feeling, with not much pain. The jewelry was put in without my noticing. Much was the same with my right lowbret, but with a little less pain while the needle penetrated me lip.
Blood was visible, but was soon wiped away just before it escaped off my chin. I turned and looked into the mirror, and was amazed of how good they looked. They bled a little while longer, and my lip swelled. It felt as if I had been hit in the lip with a football, only a little discomfort. They became very easy to get used to, being low and hard to bite, and do not get in the way. But now I do wish they were a little lower, but they are still grand. I suggest if anyone wishes to do it, do it they should. Now with my lowbrets, I get a lot of comments, for I have not seen anyone else within my area that has a pair. And of course may parents hate them, but I suppose that's their job, be annoying while trying to look after you. I am now looking into other piercing, such as my septum, and frenum, but it will take more time to get these done.
