New Specs!

i went to make new spectacles today! these days everyone's wearing thick oversized black (rockers) or white (mats and cheena twits) plastic frames. girls like wearing quirky colours. so do aunties. so being darren tan that i am, i set out looking for something unique :) i had seen Alain Mikli frames at raffles city before. and the designs on their website were uber coool. so i asked to see some at the optical shop. and DAMN. each frame costs 980 BUCKS! wow i didnt know it was designer shit! i really dont get the whole designer market and overpriced crap. the frames looked great. but 980 is way too steep man. i'm a "discounts, cheap, nice and good but look ex" shopper. hehe.

after a few hours (yes i'm so picky), i finally whittled MANY down to three. i incidentally chose the one that's cheapest haha. its dark brown with some design at the side hehe. its some funny cheapo brand called Eyestar. after a 30% discount the frames cost only $66. but i found out i've this condition that's called Lazy Eyes. haha. my eyes get tired easily. thats why my eyes are always bloodshot after a long day out. i'm not so short sighted but this condition causes a hike in the degree. im blogging my degree down cos i always forget. its Right 200, left 225. ok.
