Ever since I started wearing contact lenses I feel better in public. Because when I wear glasses it feels like people automatically think you're a nerd or something and they also feel like a weakness, I mean if someone attacked me or tried to rob me, all they'd have to do is knock my glasses away and that's it, I'm completely defenceless.
I used to just keep them for sports but decided to wear them more often, it's pretty awesome and it does make me feel happier too.
