officially 4-eyed...

i've always prided myself for having 25/25 vision. not that i take any extra care of my eyes... far from it, actually. i'm always watching tv in the semi-darkness and at a close distance, reading lying down and in not-so-ideal lighting condition. but somehow, i still manage to have perfect vision all these years.

but that all changed one month ago, when i start feeling dizzy EVERYDAY!!! i just don't know what's wrong with me! at first i thought i was just tired and did not get enough sleep. but after getting as much rest as possible, my condition still did not improve.

check-ups at the clinic did not reveal anything either. blood pressure and other vital signs are normal... it's just so frustrating to be feeling dizzy ALL THE TIME!

then last friday, i decided to go for an eye test... and yep, it's confirmed! i've lost my perfect eyesight!!! my vision has jumped from 25/25 to 125/125, with astigmatism thrown in on the right eye. so i'm officially 4-eyed now... sigh...

at the optician, i had a hard time choosing what kind of specs that'll suit me best... so i was just trying on the frames randomly and taking photos with my phone and then mms it over to N. hehehe... i think the optician also shake head... in the end, this is the one i chose:


does this make my face look fat?? or should i just stick to contacts?
