I just graduated college, and though the scholarship I had (a full ride) called for a 3.7 GPA, I maintained a 4.0 and graduated summa cum laude. It wasn’t too hard, either. The trick is priorities. There will always be time for parties and drinks on Friday and Saturday nights- but on a Tuesday night? Wow, I’m happy that all the studying paid off.

How I did it
How I did it: Both of them (the nose and the lip) were done at a piercing studio. Everything was great, except that nose piercings are pretty touchy. You have to be prepared to care for them. Warm salt soaks are the key. Read how I did it…

I think this is a childish dream, yet for the very lucky people who do get this, you’re very lucky. I’m bitter now, though, so I can’t think about it with a clear head. Love is a crazy thing..
Well, he broke up with me when we had nearly made it..we were a month away from moving in together and he decided he wasn’t ready for the commitment. So, I’m heartbroken now, but my mind is telling me that there are benefits to this. It’s just my damn heart that won’t see that for awhile. :(
