shades of grey

 even though i wore glasses till i turned 18, i can't remember a single day in those 14 years when i actually liked them! my mom tried so hard,though. she bought me a fluorescent pink pair (my then favourite colour) and even gave up wearing contacts so we could both wear glasses together!

countless tantrums and a super expensive lasik surgery later, the item at the top of my wish list was a pair of oversized nerd glasses! needless to say, my mom wasn't pleased!

  1. I quite like um! I've always liked the nerdy, "pocket calculator carrying" scientist look, probably comes from the fact of being surrounded by my N.A.S.A/I.I.T scientist daddy :P They suit you. :) me on the other hand... hmmm..i might end up resembling the cast of 'The Big Bang Theory'.lol :)
