I don't feel right with myself, again.
But this time it's a different type of feeling.
My friend Jenna had her eyebrow pierced, and now I can't stand it. I have this huge phobia of piercings, and I just get so irked when I see one, they terrify me, and I just don't understand why people would cut into their bodies to put a piece of metal in it. It doesn't make sense to me.
Some girls I know don't have piercings and I really appreciate that a lot. I don't know, I just see it this way.
So now I can't stand near her or even look at her face, and it's almost a determining factor of even being with her at all. I was at my friends house yesterday, and when I heard she was coming, I couldn't really handle it. When she walked inside, I had to go all the way to the opposite side of the room.
I felt so useless, I was just sitting there doing nothing, not even conversing, and everyone else was just talking about anything.
Blegh, I can't stand piercings, earrings are okay, I guess, but they still get to me.
Just another flaw in how I see the world.

Why don't you talk to her about it? Or get someone else to?

I second your post. I hate that piercing. Ugh.

I'm really sorry it bothers you as much as it does. I agree that you should talk to her but do so as a means to help yourself. Of course you can't ask her to change but maybe it would help to understand why people change their image in that way.
You've always been sensitive to your own health and that of others. I've been impressed with how it moves you when someone is overweight or eats too much junk food. I'm going to commit to biking several times a week. Tuesdays and Thursdays I think would be great when I can go into school late. I did it last semester so I should be able to again.
I want to take you to the beach with Paige and our friends. It'll be a great time. Water, sun, sand and girls in little clothing!
