Four - eyed Girl

I had a very difficult childhood. My father is a military man and our family always moved from one place to another. For all my life I changed about seven schools. It is a bad statistics and not a nice procedure. I even hadn't constant friends. It was very difficult to make friends for such short time. And I hadn't. And I began to read that to fill my free time. I read a lot. Reading was my passion. We have a big library and I read almost all books there. Because of my passion I made a serious harm to myself. I have lost my eyesight and since ten years I wear glasses. And when I was a little girl I didn't lose any sleep over it. And I didn't even think about contact lenses. But when I was fifteen and my father got a promotion, and I did. We moved to Los Angeles and in the middle of the year I changed a school again. My parents thought it was the last our move. They wanted that I finish my education in a good private school. But there were feather - bedded children and they had an inflated hoity - toity manner in that school. They drove posh cars; girls had wonderful dresses, beautiful hair, nails and make - up. And I stand out against a background. They didn't care there education, but there appearance and what people say about them. I felt like a cat on a hot tin roof. I was like a mousy person there and the glasses completed my wormling look. And some of them even called me four - eyed. It was very offensive. Only then I have thought to change my eyeglasses to lenses. In that school I found a really good friend. Her name was Charlotte. And she helped me to find an optical store and to choose the right contact lenses. But it didn't work. Then they began to put a joke on me. Everything I wanted to leave this place. Luckily my parents were wrong about the last move and in a half year our family had to move again. It was the only time when I was glad to our moving. The only I regretted was that I could loose my only friend. But we found a great decision. It was time to think about college. And in sometime we entered the same college and still today we are good friends.

That school was the most disgusting school I have ever studied. But this school gifted me the devoted friend and since then I wear only lenses, no glasses.
