New Glasses

Yes, I've become the newest member of my immediate family to need glasses (I'm joining my dad, who wears contacts, and Carsten, who wears glasses all the time.) I was shocked at my last doctor appointment to learn that my vision is no longer 20/20, and was diagnosed a few months later with near-sightedness. That means I really only need them for seeing things far away, like reading the board in class and for driving when I start taking lessons this summer (!) The difference in my vision is so incredible though that I want to wear them all the time!

As you can see, I have a phobia of smiling for the camera. But I don't usually look this sinister. My friends, who saw my wild side on the band trip, can attest to that! (Speaking of which, it was fantastic- aside from the fact that the judges at the competition were abnormally cruel-spirited and we got a lower score than we thought we deserved, the weather was beautiful and I could not have had more fun!)
