I've lost 2 pairs of glasses and broke another pair in the last 3 years.

Pity me.

You lost your glasses....
WHAT D'YA WANT ME TO DO ABOUT IT?!? [j/k]

Glasses suck. I was stupid to have ever wanted them (I don't wear them anymore btw -- haven't in many years)

I love the NHS. Free glasses when you're in full-time education.

Most of my glasses have been kept in pretty good condition, so long as you ignore the lenses being scratched to hell quickly. Although if I lose them, I'm screwed because of my apalling vision. I'm a walking ophthalmology textbook.

My glasses have been through so much in the past. I never lost them, but they've gotten beaten to pieces. Luckily I have a new relatively undamaged pair now.

Yeah I lost my first and only pair over Easter on Army Cadet camp. One minute they were clipped to my pouches, the next they weren't. Haven't been able to afford to replace them since and have just learnt to get by without them. It's going to be hell when I get back to school though...

Get contacts, but give them a try for several weeks. Your eyes aren't used to having **** jammed into them. I hate it when people try out contacts and go "OMG THESE SUCK HOW CAN ANYONE EVER WEAR THEM??? ARGH they're not for me I guess"..

Thinking about the contacts, not to sure if I want them, I hate putting things in my eyes (eyedrops are hard to do).

Plus I hear about people getting sand i them and stuff...

That must've been the old-fashioned Lasik torch. Those have fallen into disuse in most places in the country today.
