Glasses

 


I have not been blogging for a while as i have been busy with  an assignment at campus with my friend Lauren ,our assignment is 60 odd pages ,which is quiet a lot of  typing when it comes down to it . During working on this assignment i came across what my next blogpost would be about which is Glasses and the importance it has in my daily life also the irritation it brings after a while and how lost and "blind" i am without them .

I got my glasses in the beginning of 2013, And i only realized i needed glasses when i started driving more often at night ,i would literally squint at the robots as i couldn't see how far they were and all of a sudden my eye sight would go blury. 

I went to the optometrist (spectacle warehouse) ,I'm pretty glad i did my best friend Mellisa told me about them and they have a huge amount of glasses to choose from ,which suited me quiet fine as I'm a picky person. (sometimes) i have an astigmatism in my eye , which basically means my cornea is not fond of being a circular shape and sometimes prefers to be oval , because you know one shape isn't enough for these eyes! :/

I have currently not been wearing my glasses for two weeks , and its the worst . i can't see and i get constant headaches .The reason for not wearing my glasses ? .. I'm lazy ,i left them in my sisters car and have honestly just not gone and taken them out ever since I've left them there . 

people think wearing glasses is fun and a fashion statement .. if only they knew what it feels like to actually need them and having to put these windows to the world on every single day because your eyes have decided they don't want to see clearly anymore ,i guess in that sense I'm a lot like my eyes at times , just give up,don't want to do anything and laze around.

 forgetting where you put your glasses ,having mascara that touches your lens because you have butterflies as eyelashes , and constantly having this frame thing on your face can get annoying and you could only wish your cornea just wanted to be one shape instead of two. 

after all this complaining you would wonder why wouldn't i just wear contact lenses , I'm honestly not one who has the patience for poking their finger in their eye daily , my contact lenses would be lost in the first hour of getting them .

Decisions, Decisions and Decisions !




Decisions are made everyday sometimes without even realizing it, like now I have made the decision to write this post earlier I decided I should attend class, but all in all we decide on things every single thing every day.

I have decided to post because I haven’t posted in a while and that is a decision. So what’s the point of this blog post?

The point is I have realized that every one has a different way of making decisions whether small or big although at times when big decisions are made people tend to seek advice from their peers and family.

Recently I have made a big decision I wont mention what exactly what it is because I do not like speaking to much about my personal life, a decision where there was two options and I followed my Gut, I made a decision that many wouldn’t approve of. But in the end it’s my choice. The thing is I was always worried about what other people thought of my decisions no matter what it was. For the first time I made a big decision like this on my own and I can honestly say its better than waiting for all the negativity to come from people, which leads to overthinking. I took my own initiative and thought about what would make me happy.

I was fortunate to be brought up making decisions on my own from a young age, and sorting out problems on my own from a young age to, my parents don’t really get involved in my personal life they respect my privacy but there are ground rules of course, they believe in the theory of letting me experience life first hand to find out what I like or do not like, and they know if they don’t allow me to go out when I am young I am going to be an old 45 year old wanting there young adult life back.

Point of this post is sometimes your gut feeling can be right, and no one knows yourself better than you do. Take some time and realize what you really want, if you make your own decision you cant blame anyone else for the way you feel, that’s how we learn and become interesting individuals.
