OPTOM

yeah yesterday was dentist, today is optometrist and i have nothing inherently wrong with me, still gotta get that stupid tb test thing in 2 weeks time bleh, waste of time lol i don't have tb how can i?

anyway so this morning i woke up at 830 and the appointment was at 9 so i quickly did my thing and left the house. i got there at 8 50 and there was no one there. hmmm weird. anyway so i waited around and he come out and lets me in at 5 to, there wasn't a receptionist, it looked dodgy at first, quite quite dodgy.

he acted as the receptionist and then he brought me into the place where they have teh eye test. it stated out normally enough but then he started doing all these tests i've never heard of, like this air shooting in your eye as you stare at a green flashing light, testing glocoma or something, not sure how to spell that. he also tested my retina by looking at it while i stared at a corner, i was trying not to laugh cos it was so awkward for me cos he was so close and staring at my eye, but it was completely normal to him :P

then there was this red line test where he asked if it was straight through the middle of a light and he measureed my reading length, looked at each eye depth perception and looked at the darkness of certain strips of black paint or something anyway that was new

then he did the old look at the thing, which is better 1 or 2, that took like 2 minutes or something :P

so altogether the test took about 40 minutes, insane! so long

then he started talking to me about different materials and coating for the glasses and other things that you can put on to reduce uv or glare or the materials so the scratches aren't as common, so i basically picked the best of everything for the lenses and picked quite a good pair of frame, so it cost 515 all up and that was with him not charging everything or it'd be 555, so he gave me a further discount for being a student, and then NIB paid 140 so i had 345 out of pocket, i chucked it on my card and it felt good cos i wasn't handing him cash hahahaha even though he was still getting money :P

all up the trip to the optometrist took 2 hours, great fun :D

i went home and enjoyed the company of my laptop and its ability for me to talk to my friends and also entertain me

did some chem, not nearly as much as i did yesterday

had roast dinner, love roast dinner but before was better, the chicken's skin was soooo crispy and yummy now its jsut yummy :P

Oh and i've been talking to michelle -there's your mention :D
