Glasses.

Hi there! It's been forever, I know. I don't even have a good excuse, but here we go.

I've worn glasses since grade 6, which is a long time ago. And trust me, there's nothing good about them. Except, seeing, of course.



Okay, so yeah, I can SEE with glasses, which is important, obviously. The first day I tried them on, the floor looked slanted. It made me feel dizzy and confused. What's so fun about eyes is that they give you headaches for every reason, so yeah, tough day.

The world appeared brighter, everything became more defined. Objects used to blend in with each other. That feeling of "seeing" for the first time is unique. Even though I keep on changing lenses, the difference's never this significant. 

The worst part about wearing glasses, in my opinion, is the dependency. If I lose or break them, I'm screwed. Some terrible headache happens few seconds after taking them off. My eyes even hurt. When I'm not wearing my glasses, I cannot see nor hear. And that's something non-glasses people will never understand and glasses people will never be able to explain. Thus, if anyone of us wakes up, don't talk to them until they wear their glasses, unless you enjoy some extra morning stupidity and a lot of "What? Where?"'s.

Lying on bed  or the couch is impossible cause you'd be so close to breaking them. You have to take them off in the amusement park (I never do, but you have to). You have to take them off when changing clothes and taking a shower and washing your face and it's just tiring. I can't remember the number of times I [almost] got hurt in the shower because I couldn't see. Drinking a hot drink and breathing at the same time means the vapours will make you blind for a minute. 

When the glasses have few dry water drops or are somehow dirty this gives me a headache some times but it never fails to irritate me. Of course a rainy day or a day by the sea is quite irritating.

No matter how many times my friends will tell me they're used to me with glasses and how "cute" I look in them, I've always wished I do an eye surgery and get rid of them for good.
