[color=#000000ost_uid0]I have neither. I did wear glasses for a brief period of time when I was younger, but stopped wearing them because I saw just fine without them. The rest of my family all wear glasses. I did have 20/20 vision last time I got checked.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Everyone in my immediate family wears glasses, including me. But I usually wear contacts in company.

[quoteost_uid0]but stopped wearing them because I saw just fine without them.[/quoteost_uid0]
Oh, I see just fine without them too, I mean, who needs vision?

Seriously though, they're somewhere around -6 dpt, so I really need them.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Alright, alright, I give in ::answers the question properly:: I wear contacts in school and glasses at home. I'm -8.5 in each eye; legally blind without glasses. I'm going to get laser surgery after I turn 21 or so.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]El Question Nuevo!

What is the craziest thing you`ve done (recently)?

I went to Sheraton Hotel last week with a friend. 80$ for a few drinks and a sandwich, But it was very classy, Americans everywhere, laptops all over the place... Well, you only live once! [/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]It depends on your definition of "recently", doesn't it?

Hmm... let's see. Probably not dropping out to school and worse still, trying to take an advanced-level module at the same time as an experimental lab module. Yeah. CRAZY.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]The craziest thing? Giving my address to someone I've met on the internet. Something I once swore I'd never do.

My life has been [iost_uid0]so[/iost_uid0] boring lately. *sigh*[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Its not that i hadn't had the opertunity before, I just chose not to. Â

I wouldn't have even gotten a buzz, but my friends and I were playing "drinking Monopoly" and i landed on free parking right after opening a new beer  :lol: (they said i wouldn't be able to down the whole thing, how could i not prove them wrong ) Thats what did me in, before that i was fine.

But like i said, i probably won't do it again anytime soon, as much fun as it was feeling the room spinning i don't like the feeling of not being in compleat control of my actions  :dead:  [/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Well, I've only been drunk once before too.

I usually drink cokes whenever me and my friends go out, basically because I don't like the taste of beer. Anyway, one time someone told me he'd make some mix for me, and I couldn't ask what it was.

It was good.

EDIT: Damn spelling errors.[/colorost_uid0]

And this is American beer.

I've only attempted to get inebriated once. I found I couldn't imbibe fast enough to keep up with my liver. Ethanol is vile swill. I'm a chemist. Trust me on this. I work in a room with many bottles full of 95% ethanol.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I dunno about crazy, but I regularly walk several miles into the centre of town even though I could very easily take a bus. The lazy half of me considers that to be totally loony at any rate.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I'm wondering what the almost-every-day main course is wherever you go. (Like rice in China and spaghetti in Italy)

Here it's potatoes, which I find kinda weird since they're not from here originally. I suppose the potato is the food which grows here best, or something.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I don't really think that there is one for the UK. The only thing I tend to have a lot of is pasta, but that's more because I love pasta than anything else.[/colorost_uid0]
