Buying new glasses

So like an idiot I broke my glasses last night when they fell off my bedside sill and onto the bed and I rolled onto them.
BUT KOREA IS AWESOME, and I got TWO pair of new glasses to replace them for only about 170 dollars. I got a pair of black ones that are super simple and utilitarian, and a pair of awesome red gucci ones. The high-quality thin lenses for my -4.25 eyes were 60 dollars. $60. Glasses are so inexpensive. THis is all without eye insurance, by the way. One of my pairs of glasses, had I gotten basic lenses, would have been 30 dollars. As it was, they were 70. The other pair was 120.
Korea is awesome sometimes. I didn’t know anything about buying glasses, but necessity is the mother of invention. I took Amanda with me so I wouldn’t buy some ugly hot pink ones, but basically I just looked it up on Dave’s and read that there was a one-day turnover and kinda just went. I had an eye exam, cause it’s free, and my prescription was the same. This bodes well for my lasik lol.
Anyway, cheap glasses make up for the despair I felt this morning when I saw that my glasses were broken in half at the nose. I was not looking forward to only contacts or the Harry Potter pre-oculus reparo look. So even though I wasn’t sure how it worked, I just DID it, and it was super easy and fast. Picking my new glasses up at 3 tomorrow. Yay!
Happy mother’s day to my mommy.
