Bored stiff. Nothing else better to do, so here, to seek solace? Whatever that means.
Went ktv yest-new social activity for me, plenty fun-in town, hung out with company, basically riding out time in the typical young-but-poor-slacker manner-windowshopped. That entails looking particularly interested in some exquisite item, asking casually about the price, cruising around in the outlet for 15 min, exchanging ideas with friends, exclaiming the cuteness of the displays, and then trickling slowly out the shop, hesitatingly, buying minimally or nothing.
Quite interesting to eye-exercise-train speed on avoiding running kids, hone sharpness on detecting new displays, tune fashion-alertness by exposing to new trends, cultivate taste and personality by critically evaluating other shoppers, good counteract to comp usage-far versus short sighting. And came across a new product at guardian, a cheaper and unintrusive alternative to LASIK-black plactic specs heavily scarred with pinholes, tiny windows to the outside world, and amazingly, I was able to read LOREAL off the signboard, with the tick, or swoosh, wadeva, when before, it was all just a blur of white lights without glasses. And it costs less than 40bucks, whoa. But no clear instructions on how long the treatment would be, how effective, how to transit between normal glasses and the pinholed one, but there was promise on workshops conducted and open to consumers.
Think it works on the logic that from a small hole, the only way to see would be to look far, where things appear smaller, by relaxing the eye muscles, thereby thinning the lens in the eye. Overtime, the muscles get more used to relaxing, counteracting myopia which is caused by thickened lenses. Or it's all just a way of tricking the naive brain, forcing it to make sense of blurry images. Wow, power is our imagination and ability of reconstruction.
