well that wont be easy youd need something like a dremel with diamond tipped bits and do it slowly gently with alot of lubricant at a guess and thered be a real risk of breakageit might be better and easier to do a wire wrap around it and wear as a pendant then to try to make it a bead

They make an adhesive for windshield mirrors... if you use that to adhere a ring or something metal to it that will allow you to use it like a bead...

As S.E. said slowly with lots of lubricant, i have drilled glass in the past and i like to put the hole glass piece in a water bath and slowly drill( i found my dremel to be just on the edge of being too fast even at lowest speed)oh yeah and what knotty said about having a steady hand, i wouldnt even try it free hand i always used a drill press.
