Having bad eyesight is the new awesome

I have been wearing glasses for the last I-don't-know-how-many years. The other day I was thinking that I would get some contacts to switch things up a little. I made an appointment, went to the eye doctor, and walked out with two new pairs of fancy shmancy glasses and probably won't ever wear the contacts I bought. I can't help it if i need different glasses to express every distinct mood that i might have.

the originials. for when i am feeling dextrous, yet unpretentious

the new black and white glasses for when i am feeling especially pensive and progressive.

the new metallic bronze glasses with rhinestones up the sides for when i am feeling unconstrained and spontaneous.

okay, okay. j/k. they all are pretty much just glasses and i am pretty much making the same face in all of them. But sometimes it seems like I get identified for wearing glasses, and that no one would even recognize me if I took them off anymore. Even when using the My Heritage face recognition tool, where you can upload your photo and find out which celebrity you resemble the most, I get the same feeling. Submit a photo of my roommate, and the nice machine tells her that she resembles knockouts like Hilary Duff and Jessica Alba. It takes one look at me, and this is who it tells me I look like:

I am trying to tell myself that it is only seeing the glasses.
