4 Month Helix Update+ Piercing Wishlist!!

On Friday, I got my helix earring changed after four months. It wasn't healing properly and it needed a stud the rest of the healing period. (I had a hoop before.)
This one is 16 gauge as well, which is the standard size for a helix.
The piercer was not the same one who pierced it. He had the jewelry I needed and was super friendly! He was quick and done!
Even when my credit card wasn't working, he was patient. It ended up not working and he didn't charge me the $5. Super nice of him. 
It was quite sore, almost like a fresh piercing, when it was changed. I'm back to cleaning it every morning and every night with my sea salt solution. It is working, the soreness starting to go away.

I also have thought a lot about some piercings I would like. I decided I don't want the triple outer couch anymore. I have decided upon the industrial. It gives off that "badass" vibe and looks awesome! I would have it done on my left ear. I also would really like the belly button piercing! It looks really cute and has awesome jewelry you can put in it!

The other piercings I still want are tragus and daith; the tragus on my right ear and my daith on my right.

Jeff The Killer Playlist


My second character playlist is my favorite Creepypasta, Jeff. It consists of 9 songs. They are "Monster" by Skillet, "Whispers In the Dark" by Skillet, "Animal I Have Become" by Three Days Grace, "Time Of Dying" by Three Days Grace, "Come Little Children" by Erutan, "Flesh" by Simon Curtis, "Labyrith" by Oomph, "Counting Bodies Like Sheep To the Rhythm of War Drums" by Perfect Circle and "Criminal" by Britney Spears.Each song represents Jeff's insanity and thirst for killing. His insanity drove him to kill his family and carve a permanent smile into his face. If you encounter him, you would die. Now if you were insane or had a dark personality, he might not kill you. He might become interested in you, even like you. His methods of killing are, in human minds, disguising. Other people enjoy it. The amount of blood and putting his victims to "sleep".
"Come Little Children" is a song for all CreepyPastas such as Slenderman, BEN DROWNED, and Ticci Toby. "Criminal" is for Jeff fangirls who love him. I for one am not a fangirl. I like Jeff and the way he kills, but I will not chase him like the fangirls. -__- Whatever.

Newfound Music!

Newfound Music!


Over the past few months, I have been getting into more music! By music, I mean different artists. Through friends or recommendations no thanks to YouTube, I have discovered three new artists I like. They are Slipknot, Social Repose, and Motionless in White.


The first one I "discovered" was Slipknot. Though I was a bit familiar with some of their songs like "Devil In I", I only recently got into them; looked at their old and newer songs. My friend actually introduced me but I was the one who went deeper and found more of their startling songs. Some people link Slipknot or, for that matter, any heavy metal with "screaming" to "Devil worship". This is not the case. It is an expression of ones anger toward a certain topic. It is also part of our generation. Most people see heavy metal as "noise pollution" too. Though this may be true, there are other factors in life that are more important. Like global warming or the rain forest being destroyed for land and money. Society should really focus on our home rather than the sounds that surround it.
A lot of their songs, especially their old ones, have meaning behind the lyrics. Most "Pop" songs do not have any meaning and are just meant to be popular for a certain time, until the "next best one" comes out.
Though Slipknot may look scary, with their Halloween type masks, it is a way for the band to express themselves; To show what's on the inside. I personally love the creativity behind their masks and enjoy watching their music videos.
I enjoy a lot of their songs. From "Devil In I" to "(Sic)", they all sound appealing to my ears. The lyrics are relateble to most teenagers in life. 
They are famous for their logo of the nonogram. Though some people think it is associated with the "Devil", it is not. It is specific to Slipknot because there are currently nine members in the band.
I have a playlist of my favorite songs. Be sure to check them out! https://www.youtube.com/watchv=9Nt0Cat5RO8&list=PLqJ08hND5rkW_RS2bcmoY6ogHUiU0PMqE

The next artist I discovered is Richie Giese, who goes by +Social Repose . My other friend, +Ash Glidewell , got me into him when she created an OC based on his face claim and started sharing his music videos with me. I found his music appealing and creative, though it is not all that heavy. He performs music covers, like "Call Me Maybe" and "Guns For Hands". He is an awesome artist, though not well known. I hope he is discovered by more people because he is an amazing and talented artist, especially with his loop and accapella covers. He is having an upcoming tour, called the Yalta tour. He recently came out with his album called "Yalta". I love every single song on it, especially the one called "Arctic Eyes". I do also love his song "If You're Thinking Of Leaving, You Should". He has been around since 2014, though his "costume" as a artist is new to 2015-2016.
Personally, I hope that I can see him on the Yalta tour. He sounds like an amazing guy. He also has a YouTube channel, which is how he shares his music videos, covers, and other entertaining thins he does in everyday life too.
Here is the playlist of his Yalta album: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuke-sNRD9A&list=PLqJ08hND5rkUchKEQITU-wvvSVOoM7xVI
And here is a playlist of my favorite musicc he's done: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLkVTwyyqBg&list=PLqJ08hND5rkVxyy8l25c5tJ-T-kx3q8rW

The next artist I got into was Motionless In White. Though I vaguely heard of them before, I didn't get interested into them until +Social Repose did a video on how to sing like Chris Motionless, the lead singer of the band. I started watching videos on YouTube (Yes, I spend a lot of time on YouTube) and liked a lot of their songs, especially their latest album "Reincarnate". Before I knew it, I had bought the album and couldn't stop listening to it. My favorites, though, were "Reincarnate", "Death March", 'Everybody Sells Cocaine", "Contempress", "Break The Cyccle", and "Final Dictvm". There were more songs than on that album that I liked such as "Dead As F*ck" and "Devil's Night".
I also found, in videos of Chris and his band, to be hilarious and outgoing.
Here is my playlist of my favorite songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqXuduYAALM&list=PLqJ08hND5rkVeUpHcm3GJo36q91WmgF7-

We must realize that members of our favorite bands are just like us, though they are famous. They were once in our situation and had to deal with whatever life threw at them. Through their lyrics of their songs, they help us to keep going and to overcome society's rules of life. We can overcome them and show the world who we are.

3 Month Helix Update!

3 MONTH HELIX UPDATE!


I have had my helix in for a little over 3 months. It has little to no pain but I still must sleep on my opposite side. I don't mind it though.

I have been doing sea salt soaks, rather use H2Ocean. It feels much better when I do them. I just hold the cup over my ear and piercing, and wait about a minute. After I take it off, I move the piercing around to make sure the seasalt gets into it.
I can't wait til it fully heals and I can put in different jewelry. 


Hopefully I'll be able to get new piercings, like the daithe, tragus and the outer conch. i would like to get three in a row.

It is a new piercing I discovered and fell in love with. I would rather do that than the "punk" look with the spikes.
It quite cute and would look great on my right ear.

I'm also considering the belly button piercing, but I'm wavering between yes and no.I might not get it and I might get it. It all depends. You shouldn't get a piercing unless your absolutely sure. Same goes for tattoos. Though piercings may seem temporary, tattoos are not. They are a big decision if you choose to get one.

Movie Review: My Neighbor Totoro


MOVIE REVIEW: My Neighbor Totoro 



I am a huge fan of anime and manga. When I was in my favorite store, Hot Topic, I kept seeing "My Neighbor Totoro". I Really wanted to see it and I finally got to watch it!
It was amazingly cute and adorable, with a little bit of sadness. It made me laugh and awed at the cute parts. It cheered me up and made me feel happy.
My favorite part was the one when Suzuki gave Totoro the umbrella at the bus stop because all he was using was a leaf for protection against the rain. His big cheesy grin was adorable as well.
My other favorite part was the cat bus. It was so creative. At first, when I saw it, I thought this would be a "trippy" movie, similar to Alice in Wonderland. In a way, it was. At least Japan's version.
It was both creative and a fun loving story. It is a movie for any anime lover and will cheer you up almost instantly.
I wish Totoro was my neighbor.


My overall star rating for this movie is 5 out of 5! It is great for all ages!

Helix Redone + Future piercings and Tattoos

The first day I got my piercing
Though I was happy to get my helix done back in the end of July, I didn't really like the position of it. It was too low, plus, during work, the back of it got stuck in my hairnet. I decided, rather than get a different type of jewelry in it, I'll just get it redone! I got it done October 28, 2015. The place I got it done at was really nice and the piercer was very cooperative with what i wanted. I got my other helix jewelry back in a little bag. So far its healing well. The other helix hole has faded, though there will always be a tiny dent to where it once was. Barely noticeable though. A helix piercing takes 6 months to a year to fully heal, maybe even longer! It all depends on how well you take care of it.

Triple Spike Helix
I would really like to get more piercings in the future. When I was at warped tour, I saw a person who had three spike helix piercings, equally spaced out, on their upper ear. It looked really cool and I want to get that done on my right ear! I also hope to get the daith (Maybe the heart jewelry) on my left ear as well as tragus, though I am not sure which side. They have really cool jewelry for all of them! I just can't wait til my helix is fully healed.
Daith

I seek to get some sort of tattoo to cover my scars on my left arm. I have a good idea to what I want. It is a feather with tiny birds coming out of it. Because of my depression, I really hope I can get those scars covered with a tattoo that shows me that I have gotten through my depression. Some days are harder than others though.
Unfortunately I won't be able to get any more piercings or tattoos until I move out of my parents' house. It really sucks. But it is what it is.

New Cartilage Piercing!

Yesterday I got my cartilage done. All week I was excited and nervous! I already knew where I wanted it on my ear. Before I got it done, I was very nervous because I didn't know if it would hurt a lot or not. My mom was there to be my comforter while I was getting pierced. I was pierced with a needle, not a gun. The guns can shatter your ear and lengthen the healing process, which is typically 6-8 months. It can go longer though. It depends on how well you care for it and your body. It actually wasn't as bad as I thought. On a scale of 1-10, it was a 2. It didn't really hurt at all despite my ear bleeding a little. While the jewelry was put in, it hurt a little. Other than that, it was fine. My whole left ear was red though as my friend and I hung out together at the mall. It hurt bad. It felt hot and was throbbing. Eventually it felt better. 
Last night I had cleaned it with H2Ocean. I had some left over when I had gotten my 2nd row on my lobes pierced. It was tender as I cleaned it. It bleed a little too. I didn't twist the piercing because the piercer had told me not to because it can lengthen the healing time, plus it hurts Iikr hell. Q-tips work great for cleaning it! Really gets in the hard places that a cotton ball can't. 
At night, I couldn't sleep on that side at all. It hurt too much. As a result, I had to sleep on my other side, which was uncomfortable. It hurt a lot all night and I didn't get much sleep. I was tossing and turning. I know that the next couple days will be rough during cleaning it and sleeping, but it was all worth it. I hope that it heals quickly and efficiently so that I will be able to change it to a new one. But for now, it must stay in until it's fully healed, which will seem like forever for me!
