2007/5/9 Ear PiercingI got my ears pierced, 3 weeks ago.
Having Been hesitant about it for quite sometime, and finnally, at the doorway of piercing shop, I made the desicion. "It's no big deal, if so many people can bear the pain, I can too. Plus, I wanna spice up my life a little bit, and this will help." That's what I was thinking. It really hurt at the moment when the piercing gun pierced my earlobes, but the pain didn't last very long and I didn't cry
 . Now I don't feel the pain anymore, but still feel strange everytime when I put the post (the part that sits in the hole) through my earlobes. Not regret at all, I don't understand how this pierce tradition come of and expand all over the world. Here are some piercing history I found from internet:PIERCING CARTILAGE OF THE EAR:
This is found in Africa, North America and South America, Indonesia, and India. It is meant to signify beauty and wealth. New types of cartilage piercing are called "DIATH" and "ROOK". CHEEK PIERCING:
Men from Aleutian Islands used cheek piercing when they went seal hunting. By piercing their cheeks with rods, they looked like they had whiskers. Their intent was to imitate the appearances of the seal and they felt this increased their chances for a successful hunt.
EAR:
This type of piercing was meant to mark life stage changes in group affiliation. (which life stage I'm in?)
EYEBROW, and NAVEL:
The Egyptians used this as a sign of royalty.
LIPS:
This is also a ritual to celebrate the passage from childhood to adulthood. It also mimics facial beauty marks. This type of piercing comes from Australia, New Guinea, Africa, India, North and South America, and Indonesia.
NOSE PIERCING:
The people of India view this a sign of beauty.
TONGUE:
The Maya's performed this type of ritual when they wanted to talk to their ancestor's spirits.
So seems piercing connects us with ancient culture, I even found history of piercing of genitals, Oh my dear god! Anyway, it's cool being connected with ancient culture. My earlobes are too small, or I may want double piercing at one of them.
Mothers' day is coming, beautiful earrings can be a good choice as gifts for moms. |
