When I was a kid, I really wanted glasses. And braces. This is how bad peer pressure gets. I wanted these things because I saw other people who had them, and I wanted to be like them.
I'm probably not the only person who's had this thought. But I may be the only one who went this far. I could see the diagram just fine.
But I lied. I squinted my eyes when I could see fine all along. This was before the days of glasses with no prescription. I needed the prescription. And I got it.
And here I am now, -4.00 prescription in both eyes, wondering if it was ever meant to be. I'm going back to school this summer (Masters at UVU), and I'm asking myself: am I doing this for the right reasons?
