i feel like me being 1. apprehensive about asking my parents to pierce my nose and 2. knowing they won't let me is representative of something bigger, and more symbolic. it is not the piercing, but the fact that they will stop at nothing to make me into a molded, bible-thumping, stay-home-on-friday-nights good little child. is that they're right? in my opinion, a parent does, yes, have to set their child on the right path. but who the fuck says i'm not? i'm practically full grown, intelligent, and .. you could use the word.. distinguished? i mean, i'm junior class president, that shows responsibility, does it not? it's just ridiculous that someone has authority over me. not an awesome feeling.
