Glaucoma Testing

During my last visit to the optometrist, it was noted that I have some pressure build up in my eyeballs which may lead to glaucoma. To be on the safe side they ordered this special test, and I thought the process was kind off fun. You had to look into this small dome in which they scatter little lights one at a time over, a period of seven minutes. Each time you saw a light you had to press a little button. The process was then repeated with the other eye. As it turns out I had NO false positives and NO false negatives... in other words, I got 100% correct. Pretty nice baseline don't you think? I will have to take this test every other year as I am in a higher risk category for glaucoma since my mother had it.

On both Monday and Tuesday I spent my whole time at work packing and unpacking. Yes, I've moved back to my old room! The good part about that is that I LOVE having my own space again. I mean, you do what you have to do when sharing a room, but it is nice to stretch out again! I also finally got to purchase some desperately needed materials so that I can correctly implement this awesome program that will really make a difference in teaching people how to read and write!!!

And... a short bowling update: We haven't /won't bowl in our league for 4 weeks straight as one or another of our team members is gone. I decided I needed to keep practicing so I took in some games after school yesterday. I want my fans to know that I am indeed improving. I bowled an average of about 130 over the span of 5 games.
