Hey Val,

I, too, do not particularly appreciate how people ask about my
"sunglasses" or call me 'Hollywood'...or "Steevey" or Ray Charles...i
have a super dark tint and would LOVE to have contacts as well.

I also worry about job interviews, especially once i graduate and go
for teaching interviews, i don't want to look disrespectful in front
of the principal or whoever is conducting the interview.

I am getting my re-evaluation the second week of march, but since i am
lightening up my color, i don't know if i should go for the tinted
contacts just yet. I will just go up to having 4 pairs of glasses to
keep track of! lol

Is anyone in this group still in school, either elementary, secondary
or the college/university level? how is it working for you?

thanks!

elisabeth
