I see a shiny, sharp, silver needle coming my way.

We shall await the quick release of endorphins that will make a happy Jolyn.

I think forked tongues are cool in a grotesque way. But I highly doubt I would do that to myself. The speech impediment that I most probably will suffer from turns me off. I don't think I want a lisp. And besides, it's quite freaky looking. No local anaesthetics for that either. The pain will probably be mindblowing. Then again, maybe you won't feel shit.

I'M EXCITED!! (must be the god damn endorphins going through my system right now)

Veek has invited me to watch her get her subsequent tattoo touch-ups. Ryan wants me to watch him get his labret piercing.

I met up with CS (thank you CS!) at Somerset to get my piercing done. Veek couldn't make it, sadly. Anyway, I was reclining on the black chair, and I remember I couldn't sit still properly. I was fucking excited la. When Weinan (awesome tattoo artist/piercer) pushed the needle through, I was trying to find some words to describe the sting. I couldn't think of any actually. But the pain was bearable, in fact it didn't really bother me much. I want to do it again, you know! Maybe I'll have a cage. I'm thinking of a navel industrial as well. Lolz.

While it went through, I was thinking of 'splitting flesh'. Like how you manually tear off someone's limb... or cutting open a wound with a surgical knife. It didn't feel that way lah. (Oh, I am reminded of a short story I read about this guy who got paralysed by a snake bite while looking for his golf ball in some bushy area. He collapsed, and woke up in a body bag. They brought him to the autopsy room to check his heart, which "supposedly" failed. They almost cut off his skull cup, dug out his intestines and probed his anus, if I remember correctly. The woman was rubbing his dick, and laughing it off with a colleague when some medical dude ran in, screaming "HE'S ALIVE!")

I'm glad Nigel gave me his contact manzzz, ever since he moved from the previous studio. He is someone I really trust with needles, I guess!

Anyway, what I want to say is that, everyone should go to Skin Canvas Studio on the level 9 of Orchard Cineleisure and look for Weinan if they want to get inked/pierced. Kthxbai

I quite like solitude sometimes. Spending a day all by myself isn't bleak. But certain activities ought to be done with friends, you know?

When you're alone, it's easier to do some self-reflection. And reading. Not to mention, you can do anything you like at your own pace.

Sometimes it's so hard to be around other people. I rather face some loud music. Or maybe some mellow songs, a book. Snuggling up with the dogs = not a bad idea.

Solitude is a nice word.

It's not so hard to be alone, when you've been alone all this time.
