Just visited my piercer to confirm that my 2nd eyebrow piercing is indeed rejecting again. 
I was told to wait a bit, see if it heals up, and if not, take it out. Hopefully the 3rd times the charm? I figure eventually I should build up enough scar tissue to hold that damn thing in there!!!! Fuck. I love it so much and I dont wanna take it out and walk around with nasty scars for 2 weeks until I get it redone. My bday is coming up in a few weeks and I will have a fit if it has to come out before then - looks like thats what will happen.
So Im gonna try to shoot a set today, by myself, and see how it goes. Not a good chance it will come out great, but it will be good practice for next time, which wont be until december, when I have a break from school
Im gonna be super busy this semester and the stress is setting in. I have my 4 courses, plus 5hrs/week working on a research project (study exploring connections b/w lupus, anxiety, and depression), plus another 5 hrs/week interning at a school for autistic kids (which will be great, its something Im considering as a career, and it will help me know how to work with my autistic nephew much better), and then another 5hrs/week babysitting. Oh yeah, and the homework hours.............

Your research project sounds quite interesting. What are your other courses? If I'm not being too nosey.
If nothing else, you can post your self-shot set in the Hopefuls group and get some feedback.
Set wise good luck. I'm proud of you! Since you won't be able to do another until December you could always turn this set in if it comes out halfway decent and even if it's rejected you can get advice on what to fix and it'll help you count down those three months before you can send in another
I can't wait to see them!
