I have six piercings in each ear and one in my nose. My piercing history is
#1- age 4- my grandmother took me at the mall
#2 - age 13 - had to beg and beg to convince my mother
#3 - age 15 - had to beg my mother to take me to sign the papers and I had to pay for it
#4 - age 18 - London at a Claire's in Piccadilly Circus
#5 - freshman year in college
#6 - right before sophmore year in college
Nose- January of Junior year in college
Tattoo- Senior year in college

I love my nose ring more than anything. I had never been so pleased with a piercing. I have a teeny-tiny CZ that wear most of the time. I did change it out a couple of times with bigger studs, but I am happiest with the orginial CZ.

There is a lot of discussion on this thread and in others about hiding or removing your piercings for interviews and such and it is great that there are all sorts of options. However, when I got my nose pierced, I made the conscious decision that I would not take the stud out for any interview and would not want to take any job that would make me take it out. It is very small and very classy (for a piercing.) It suits me and my face and after over two years it has become a part of me and who I am. I keep it clean and I do not play with it unless I am teasing my swim team kids who think it is weird or gross. If a company doesn't want to hire me because of a inconspicuous piece of jewelry, I don't want to work for them anyway.
