The Life and Times of S

So I had to go to the eye doctor this morning to get my eyes checked out. I've been getting a lot of headaches since the past few weeks. Plus I have a black spot in my left eye that doesn't bother my eyes or my vision in any way but it bothered me so I thought I'd get it checked out too.

So turns out my vision hsan't changed. Same old prescription.

And the balck spot. Turns out its just extra pigment in th eye. So the spot is like a freckle. Harmless. In the doc's own words, "Its like when God gave you your brown eyes, he changed his mind for just a second and decided to give you black eyes instead. But then the next second, decided that brown was definitely the better choice and changed his mind right back."

Kinda like the time I tried coloured contacts. I tried green, grey, hazel and blue. Blue, although, not popular with people who saw me wearing them, was my favourite. But I realized quickly enough that blue wasn't my colour.

I never tried black though.
Hmmm. I wonder what I would look like with black eyes.

The doctor was really surprised that I actually was able to see the black spot. He said most people, even when looking at their eyes in a mirror an inch away, wouldn't have seen a spot like that. Especially with eyes as brown as mine.

I told him I just pay more attention to eyes.
And not just my own.
