Blind as a bat

School

In second grade, I got glasses. I am so far sighted its not even funny, I couldn't see my how many fingers I was holding up if my hand was in front of my face.

One day in 9th grade, I had set my stuff down on my desk and set my glasses on top because they were really dirty and I couldn't see out of them anyways. Some one walked by and they fell onto my seat, so when I sat down...guess what? I sat on my glasses. I didn't have any other pair, so I was stuck being blind for the rest of the day.

I had gym class that day, so I had to go into the locker rooms to change. The boys and girls are right next to each other, which was too bad for me that day because I was blind as a bat. I thought I heard the bell ring for gym, so I walked into the girls locker room to change, or at least I thought I did. It ended up being the boys locker room, and a minute later the bell really did ring.

Unfortunetly I had already stripped down to my flowered pink bra and winnie-the-pooh underwear. Just then, all the guys walked in to get ready for gym-including my crush! They all say me, and I was soooo mortified. I screamed, grabbed my clothes, and ran out the nearest door I could find.

Unfortunetly again (boy, this was a really unfortunate day for me) it was the door to the hall way. So instead of only the boys seeing me, the whole student body in the hallway saw me. I ran into the girls locker room (becuase I knew it was the door next to the one I came out of) and finished changing with the rest of the girls.

To this day, those boys still call me piglet (because of my winne-the-pooh underwear). I now wear contacts, and always bring my glasses to school anyway, to avoid another fiasco!
