We decided to not waste time and grabbed a burger at the mall. I usually don't eat fatting foods like this but Joe forced it upon. Ugh. Sometimes he just drives me insane. But it was a good time saver though. We ate in about five minutes, so we went straight to shopping.

 First place we went was Hot Topic. It looked kinda scary from the outside but inside they had the cutest stuff. I bought a bunch of band tees, band bracelets, and then purple, yellow, red, blue, white, black, and gray skinny jeans. I got some hair clips and some monster slippers too go with it. Joe grabbed me some black with studded belt high tops. I was officially in love with this place.

The next few places we got screen tees, band shirts, accessories, and shorty shorts. I tried on all the stuff and showed them to Joe. But he wasn't the only one checking it out. I actually liked these clothes. I was so used to being covered up by dressy clothes from my parents and their rules. But I feel so free in these. I love the way everything fits my body and people can see me and not the good girl. I feel like myself for once.

We had been to ten stores and I had about fifteen bags in all. I had spent the cash dad gave me, but I still had the debit card with $500 on it. I was in love with every one of these outfits! Wearing them in the dressing room made me feel so... alive and transformed.

I had gotten so caught up with the shopping I didn't realize the time. It was 3:30. This I do believe is going to be the scariest part of the day. Piercings. I had decided on a navel piercing and snake bites. I just figured it would go with the look. So Joe and I walked down to the place called Perfectly Pierced. I walked inside and was greeted by a college kid that had like twenty piercings!

"Hey guys how can I help you today," she asked us. She seemed pretty nice and figured maybe this isn't as scary as I thought it would be. Joe told her that it was me who was here for the piercings. Thanks alot Joe.

"I am going to get a navel and snake bites today," I explained to her confidently. She walked me over to the register and grabbed some papers.

"You are going to need parents permission if you are under eighteen you know," she explained to me. Well apparently I look younger then I am.

"Umm... Actually today is my eighteenth birthday. Here. You see," I said as I showed her my drivers licensce. She looked from the picture to me and repeated it.

"I'm sorry but I don't think this is valid. This is not your picture." Oh crap! She can't tell it's me cause of the different hair. Thankfully Joe stepped in to save the day.

He explained to her the freakout and that I had had my hair done. You could she thought he was hot because all she did was bite her lip and twirl her hair. Psh! What an idiot.

She went with it and took us into the back room. Everything was vibrant and colorful back there. She had me looking through piercings, while she talked (flirted) with Joe. Joe was absolutely clueless as to the flirting and was not really paying attention to her.

I finally decided on a pair of icy blue snakebites and a silver belly button ring. I took them over to the girl and she had me sit down in a chair. She took out this little thing that looked like a gun. At this point I was freaking out. Joe could tell so he came over took hold of my hand. I looked at him gratefully before I turned back to the lady. When she turned around and saw him holding my hand, I thought the gum she had been chewing would fall out of her mouth. I smiled on the inside thinking that she was jealous already and they aren't even together.

She quickly shielded her emotions and loaded the little gun with the navel ring. She had me pull up my shirt and she sanitized it. She stared at my stomach. I looked down to see what she was staring at. There was nothing there. "I have never seen a stomach of a girl so lean before. There isn't any fat at all. It's just pure muscle!" She exclaimed poking my abs. I don't really know why she was so fascinated.

"Umm.. Thanks?" was my reply. She shook her head and placed the little gun thing on my belly button. It was really cold so I winced and looked away. I saw Joe's face and that made me relax a lot more.

"1...2...3. " I felt a slight sting,"Ok thats done, now we have to do the snake bites. They hurt a little bit more than that though." I looked down at my stomach. Wow, that actually looks cool. The lady loaded the next gun and lifted up my chin. She wiped the spots where the piercings would go. She pulled the piercer up to my lips and squeezed the trigger. I felt a sharp sting and sucked in a breath. She quickly sanitized and reloaded the piercer. I felt another sting the same as before. "Okay you are all done! That'll be $145." I handed her the card and she swiped it.

We walked out of the store. I'm sure nobody is goin to recoginze me. We went to the next place. The contacts store. I have blue-ish brown eyes, but they look hideous with the new look. So I looked around for the icy piercing blue contacts I wanted. It took me a while but with Joe's help we found them and paid the twenty five bucks.

My day was done and we had run later than planned. It was already 7:00. We grabbed a chinese dinner at the mall and headed back to Joe's house. I skipped the last part about getting a boyfriend because I am so friggin pooped. Joe drove me back to his place with the $700 dollars worth of stuff in the back.

We were a few towns away from home when my eyes began to droop. I felt the dark void of sleep calling my name. I finally surrended to it and let it take me in.
