That's a smart way of looking at it.

I'm hopeless without my glasses, I can't see the board proeprly at all, even sitting in the front row.
same here.
but you know what i really hate, going to a fast food resturant and being unable to read the prices (seriously, why do they have to be so high up, and tiny??)

Same, i got so pissed off by that i just asked him and said yes. (its cheaper then paying for the anti-fogging lens, which don't work that well either *worst $180 i ever spent).

do you really need your glasses to see what your eating? can't you just take them off?

anyone wear contacts? apparently they're incredibly annoying to put on and take off and they fall out all the time....but personally i've never tried....
Oh! My friend told me about a friend of hers who wore eye contacts and was BBQing and the plastic in the contacts melted into her eye and she became blind in that eye.

So don't BBQ while wearing contacts :)

0.-

dayum.

short-sightedness is so annoying when you're in the back row of a comedy gig and most the comedian's gags come from facial expressions.

but in general, when i forget my glasses in class sometimes i just go and sit right in front of the board or squint really really hard.

as for studying, i do 30-50 minute blocks then go some hockey drills for 10-15 minutes. this is usually done at my most productive hours of 6pm - 11pm.

I've done that before, and nothing happened to me.

I do take them off, but I like to eat while watching TV, so I'd prefer to have my glasses on.

ive been wearing contacts for 2 years, but i changed to glasses 3 weeks ago

its coz now ive started experimenting with polyphasic sleep, like powernapping. i nap once after school and once after dinner, and sleep from about 3:30am to 7am. so i cant wear contacts cos its a pain to take it off and on all the time.

i mean i, like many others i hope, am addicted to procrastination in the form of msn. so i thought, rather than trying to conquer my addiction and deprive myself of the daily socioblast, i could study when everyone is offline.

i wont lie, it hasnt made life easier, it hasnt reallly made life harder though either. i can pay attention in single periods and doubles are usually practicals/videos anyway. so ive been getting better marks.

in the last 2 months or so xD

That BBQ must have been pretty hot to melt a contact
