G - Glasses

G - Glasses: Thing

I got glasses in 3rd grade. I never minded going to the eye-doctor because my Uncle worked there and that was kind of fun. I got contacts in middle school or early high school because they made it easier to play sports, but they were awful to put in, and they were uncomfortable.

One time, at a summer camp that I went to, I sat on my glasses after we had been having massive wrestling matches, they broke. This was the very first day of the week, so I had to go through the week pretty much blind (I think I still got a bullseye in archery).

I have the super-light-weight bend-y frames now (Which I love, because I worry about them breaking), but I really miss having glasses with lenses tall and wide enough that I don't notice them. People tell me they look better small, but they aren't as good for looking through.

I still have a few pairs of old plastic-frame glasses from my (and one other person's) childhood. They're kind of fun to wear sometimes.

I would make passes at girls who wear glasses (if I made passes at people).
