Big change

18 June 2015


This week, after decades of wearing glasses I finally got contact lenses.

It's been a tiny revolution. I can take off a jumper without having to take my glasses off first and won't have to worry about my glasses fogging up when I'm nervous or excited (that happens and it's embarrassing). The strangest thing has been getting used to the sight of my own face, which I haven't seen clearly without glasses since I was eight or nine.

Want to know something silly? After putting contacts off for years, a cool pair of sunnies that couldn't be made into the prescription kind helped to change my mind. I reckon it won't be a full-time thing but so far it's a fun and surprisingly big change in my every day life. I just hope my baby niece still recognises me :)
