I always have to get those stinging eyedrops. Sure, I get a better prescription, but I still have to wait a week for the optometrist to get the lenses in, and cut them to fit my frames.<br><br>*sigh* <!--emo&:(--><img src='

I confused her by not reading the lines figure by figure (as expected) but as one large number. For example, for "4 8 6 3 5 2" I wouldn't say "vier, acht, sechs, drei, fuenf, zwei", but "vierhundertsechsundachtzigtausenddreihundertzweiundfuenfzig". The doctor told me not to do so because that would be to complicated. I believed that she only said this because she thought that I were too young to tell numbers of that size properly. So I felt quite offended then. <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='
