She was a very good friend.
I was so upset about it at the time, though, that when I went home I let mom know and told her I never wanted to eat carrots again!
She said okay.
... after she finished laughing.

My uncle asked me if I could read what was written on the board. I said "There's nothing on the board" So I had to get glasses by 2nd grade and by 4th grade I upgraded to contacts!
So.... I hate how my eyesight is sooooo bad!!! -11.5!!!! I bet no one can beat that!!!
I hate how even if I got lasik my vision would still be a -3, IF I am lucky. Why would I pay $6000 just so I still have to wear contacts???
I hate it when I wear my eyeglasses and my friends poke fun of me and ask if I can see into the future! |
Oh my goodness! I thought I had bad eyesight! Mine is -5.5 and -6.0.
Has your eyesight stopped getting bad? Mine still gets bad, but it definitely doesn't go bad as quickly.
Yeah, lasik is pretty much pointless then. I was thinking about lasik, but I'm waiting a little longer for the technology to improve.
Mom made a good point: optometrists are still wearing glasses.

That reminds me of another pet peeve. People that point out how beautiful they think that my oldest daughter is, or how handsome my oldest son is in front of Ethan or any of the other kids. If you are going to say something like that, say it about all of them or don't say it at all. It just breaks my heart for the other kids. It's almost as bad as saying one is cute and one is ugly. |
I think that is so incredibly rude. Once when I was in Korea I was with a friend and this random person kept saying how pretty I was and it made me so angry. If you can't say we're both pretty, then shut up.
But that's Koreans for you. I also got told on one trip I'd be pretty if I lost some weight.
