I Am So Not Punk
6 August 2006Last weekend I was having a coffee with my sister when I suddenly said, “Should I get my septum pierced?” She gave me a semi-disapproving look. I’d been thinking about doing it for months, but we decided to call one friend of mine and if they said yes I would get it done. There is a whole other story here about how I am absolutely incapable of making my own decisions (this includes what I eat for lunch, it’s an awful affliction) but anyway.
I went through a list of names to my sister and she told me if I was allowed to call them and ask, and if not why. I wasn’t allowed to call anyone who had any piercings, but funnily enough the person she okayed could be voted Ani’s Friend Most Likely To Say Yes To Anything Ever. Marco said yes, and off we toddled to Fleshwound on Cuba Street. En voilà:
Let me assuage: it didn’t really hurt then, it doesn’t really hurt now, it didn’t pop, and it didn’t go through cartilage.
My new facial adornment made its grand entrance at Marco’s 35th birthday party where an unknown American guy kept saying things like, “Are you raging? Like a bull?” Yes, I am raging. Like a bull.
So here I am in Auckland staying with my friend Gala. Last night we went to a party somewhere in Buttfucksville “out by the airport” with some Westies. There, one particular drunk and/or stoned Westie said he thought I was a punk. It couldn’t be further from the truth.
Reasons I Am Not Punk
- My favourite music is distinctly unpunk.
- I drink a lot of tea.
- I can’t listen to loud music because the bass hurts my ears.
- I wear a suit to work.
- I wear a shawl when I’m reading in bed and slippers when I’m out of bed.
- I look like I could be a librarian
- These are actually reasons why I am a nana.

Librarians are hot.
Welcome to the club! Looks good! You should maybe get a smaller one in time? Looks a bit big.. ^^

At least you chose a location that will not expose the holes once you get tired of it. Friend of mine had her throat pierced. Took years and years to heal once she took it out and looked even more disturbing. yuck Facial piercings are just not my thing I guess.
PUNK is all attitude, not appearance.
You do mean librarian, right?
Not to be confused with liberian… ‘cos that’s another story > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JklEnHM9IEo
i want one now, & i blame you.
p.s. you might be a librarian but you’re a HOT librarian. this is important, i feel.Not a favorite of mine at all. There are facial piercings which look good, but this isn’t one of them. All I can ever think is that it makes someone look like a beast of burden, plus… the whole booger deal. Ew.
Uh, yeah. What happens when you get a really snotty cold? I suppose that remains to be seen…
I actually have a snotty cold now. It means it gets a bit crusty and stuck and is kinda hard to blow but it’s not that bad.
I like it though. Iit’s just a piercing.
ugh. the last thing i want to see is something hanging out of someone’s nose. especially a hot chick’s nose.
Nice to see angie stone is still in your playlist. She lost points with me, when she sampled the o’jays. Oh well.
But yeah, you’re not punk.
That thing in your nose is awful though.
I am afraid Andrea, my worse fears are finally confirmed and that you actually are the fledgling outpost of a hardnose group of anti-establishment emo’s. Watch out NZ.

it sucks ass, I agree with oyindeed, almost as bad as getting a boob job when you have nice boobs
Except when I take it out nothing will look any different.
I don’t get why having a piercing causes so much nastiness. Who cares if you don’t like it? Would you tell me if you didn’t like my hair cut? I would hope not. Perhaps your mothers didn’t teach you right.
One darn hottie…..Thx Babe ..you are fuckinng cool..xxxxx
hehe i pierced my own septum not too long ago
it will be a shame to see them close
