Body Collage

It took me a while to figure out what I was going to write about for this essay. At first I wanted to write about my legs because I had always been a bit self-conscious about my height. I'm 5'0" and sometimes I wish that I was taller. The worst part is going to concerts and the people there are so much taller. Bummer. Eventually I ended up writing about my eyes. I didn't really focus on the physical aspect but more on my poor eyesight. I think I'm practically blind without my glasses and it sucks under certain circumstances. I have to find a place for them when I go on roller coasters. I hated glasses at first because I thought they looked nerdy. But that was a long time ago and I've come to accept it. I actually like picking out new glasses and trying them on. It's kind of like picking out a new bracelet or necklace. I consider it shopping. My most memorable experience with my glasses was when I kicked them into a pond. I'm still surprised at how I managed to kick it as soon as it fell off the collar of my shirt. They were actually a birthday gift from my parents since they were so expensive and I feel sorta bad.
