I Have Four Eyes And I'm Still Clumsy

I can't be the only one who has these troubles.

For all the people who don't have 20/20 vision, are known for being clumsy, and who have not gotten around to getting contacts- this one's for you. Wearing glasses everyday seemed like an easy task when my eye doctor first told me I was near sighted in my right eye and far sighted in my left. After wearing glasses everyday for about four months, I have been acquainted with 4 struggles of having "four eyes" and being clumsy.

1. Running into stationary objects

Like I said earlier, I am a clumsy. I run into doors at least 3 times a week, 2 times if it's a good week. Now that I have glasses, every time I run into a door and it hits my face, I immediately panic that my glasses might be broken. It's a miracle I haven't even scratched them yet. *Knock on wood*

2. My dog licking my glasses

This point has nothing to do with being clumsy but, when I come home from class my little dachshund will eagerly greet me with dog kisses on my face. He doesn't leave out my glasses, which results in slobbery streak marks all over my the lenses. Leaving me to constantly clean them because my dog tends to lick my glasses a lot.

3. Falling

If you are a clumsy person, you are quite acquainted with falling. Whether it be falling down stairs, up stairs, tripping on the sidewalk, falling off your bed- you've experienced it all many times. Once you add glasses to the mix, it can make your fall more embarrassing especially if you break them.

4. When your glasses aren't perfectly situated on your face

When you are clumsy, you get used to feeling embarrassed or you unknowingly do things that bring embarrassment upon you. I am accustom to both. Since I have ran my face (and glasses) into many doors, my glasses don't fit me as well as they used to- leaving me to have to fix their positioning on my face. Sometimes my glasses will be situated crooked on my face and I won't notice for some time- very embarrassing and comical.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
