So, I was fidgeting around at my desk this morning as I sometimes do and (as I sometimes do - please don't ask any more) I decided I would try putting my earring through my old nose stud hole. I periodically do this to find out how much of the hole has closed up in case I ever want to repierce it.
Only....
to my surprise the earring went straight through and it turns out that the hole is still there alive and well and still in good condition. I had thought it was about 1/2 closed but it turns out it was just at a funny angle. After my initial elation I realised that I had a dilemma.
I took out my nose stud when I became a trainee at a law firm because IT WAS VERY MUCH FROWNED ON. At the time I massively regretted it. Of all the people that do wear nose studs I was one of the lucky few it actually looked quite natural on and I really felt I should be making the most of this and it just looked really pretty.
So now I am sitting here with an earring through my nose - terrified to take it out in case it suddenly closes up again and contemplating how to approach this issue with regards to my career.
Advice welcome please.
