I have my ears pierced on both side, although i used to have 5 on my left, and 4 on my right. most of them have since closed up. i also used to have my nipples pierced but they unfortunately migrated out. i have 5 Tattoos.
In order of getting them
1: I have a symbol from a rock band on my pelvis. i know that sound silly but i don't regret it, and it still to this day holds tremendous meaning to me.
2: i have the lyrics "Desolation Yes Hesitation No on my left calf (1st part on the left side 2nd part on the right side, but i consider it one piece) I got this done soon after i got back on my feet, after living on the streets of NYC. It's there to help remind me that when at my most desolate i can't hesitate, b'c things can only get better from there.
3: i got the old WWF symbol with my Grandfathers name, and D.O.B-D.O.D. on my right thigh. me and him both enjoyed professional wrestling (i still do) and i loved talking to him about the comings and goings in that "world"
4: I have the Firefly-Class transport ship Serenity outlined on my left shoulder blade. i'm a crazy Browncoat (look it up if you need to)
5: i have wings w/my close friend's D.O.B.-D.O.D and her name. i didn't actually get wings b'c of any angelic issues, as my beliefs don't include angels, but actually b'c she had wings tattooed on her back. she died way too young (age 26), but in those short years she lived a full life, and we became very close.
phew, thanks to all who read that unintentionally lengthy post. i got a little emotional thinking about my memorial tattoos.
