Well I've been seriously considering getting a new piercing (ever since I had to remove my eyebrow piercing and let it close up I've been in withdrawal lol) but I'm going away to Costa Rica in about 4 days (the trip is about 10 days). I was thinking of getting my tongue pierced, but I'm DEFINITELY not doing that right before a trip because of the speech impediment and the difficulty eating.

However I was thinking also of getting a septum piercing because I hear they're relatively easy to keep/take care of. Do you think it would affect the piercing if I had it done before the trip? (I won't be doing any swimming or anything. The only time it's coming into contact with anything would be with regular bathing etc.) Or would it be in my best interest to wait until after the trip?

(P.S. do you think it would look alright or is my nose too awkward for one?)
