I had a band aid on it but i still got called down to the office and was given the "option" to take it out right there or go home. Since it was bullshit, because all the white girls get away with it, i refused to take it out and went home. I had to eventually take it out because they wouldnt let me come back to school and graduation was right around the coner so it wasnt worth it. Damn white people</p> I go to a lame catholic school and i got my nose pierced.

I just "happened'' upon this site in search of sonali gold jewelry and decided to check it out! How very informative!
