Finally, the effects eating of lots of carrots during childhood has lost its super power – officially need to wear glasses due to astigmatism. Never thought the day will come. But I’ve come to my senses, no point denying the difficulties of reading presentations from the afar during meetings, and those tired eyes, which I’m not sure whether it is the lack of sleep or the astigmatism causing it – probably both. 4 more days before I reveal my new image. Oddly excited about it. Lol.
A picture is worth a thousand words – explicit and implicit, exposed and hidden. Exercise session 8 January 2024 If anyone were to look at the photo above they would have probably thought that we were having the day of our lives. At that particular brief moment we probably did.
