About Daimeera

Hello there!
I'm a 21 year old female from Nova Scotia, Canada. I'm not as active on this site as I once was, but I will almost certainly reply to private questions sent to me.
Let's see, about me. I've been diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia Syndrome, Clinical Depression, as well as some other related mental and physical illnesses. Despite this, I'm happier now than I can ever remember being.
I've been a vegan since August 2007. In other words, I do my best not to consume anything of animal origin, ranging from the obvious (meat), to the somewhat obvious (eggs and dairy), to the not-so-obvious (honey, wool, silk, and more). I love this life. I have so much more appreciation for everything and everyone around me, and I feel so at peace with myself and the world. I wake up everyday and know that I'm making a difference. It's been a huge turning point in my life.
I recently graduated from high school after an extra three years due to my illness. It was a long road, but it felt amazing to walk across that stage. An added bonus was having the 15th highest average (over my high school career) out of 258 students!
I intend to pursue a career in psychology, first obtaining my BA, and then attending graduate school in order to study for my PhD. It's a little daunting at times, but I know it will be worth it. I want to help people, plain and simple. I want to make a difference. I want to change the world. And I believe I can, if only in a small way.
I think that's me in a nutshell. I also enjoy writing, knitting, multiple other artistic endeavors (including drawing, photography, music, and more), web design, and many other things. So, feel free to drop me a message if you think there's something I can help with.
Psst, guess what? I, like everyone else, have my very own message board! You can visit it here.

I'm 14 and I was wondering what piercing I should get. I have my first holes, my top hole on my cartilage, and one a little below that in the middle. I want another piercing, but where. If on my ear, where and what type of earring ?
I honestly don't think that's a question you should be asking here. The perfect piercing for you is the one that will make you happy, not the one that someone else recommends. Decide based on the care required, the level of pain you're willing to endure, and even where you live and what is expected of you. In an ideal world, piercings shouldn't affect how you're treated, but the fact is, they do.
If you cannot decide on your own which piercing you want, then perhaps you shouldn't get a piercing just yet. Make sure you really want it before you act, otherwise you might live to regret it.
