Different Points of View

My mom and I have different points of view. A big one is our thoughts on piercings. She doesn't understand why someone would want to put extra "holes" in their bodies. That they look disgusting. I disagree. I think that its not so much as putting extra holes in my body but that I'm making a statement and you should't look at it like that. I think it's a form of art just like tattoos.
Since I was 12 I've wanted my nose pierced and for my fifteenth birthday I got it done. The only reason my mom agreed was because her friend convinced her it was ok. My mom was afraid it would look bad. I said it wouldn't and I was right. The second piercing I got was my lip. I had talked to my mom before about how I also wanted to get that done. She of course said no. I already had enough and it would look disgusting. But I didn't care. I told her I was getting it done and since I was 16, I didn't need her to sign for me.
And now we come to my recent one...my eyebrow. By now my mom is kinda like whatever. She thinks I have enough piercings. You can never have enough is what I think. This time though I inform her that I am going to go with Brian and we are going to get our eyebrows pierced together. So I think that my mom is now use to the fact that her daughter is going to have many piercings and in the future won't be surprised if I come home with a new one.
