                          Glasses

This morning I looked into the mirror again and I decided it would be best if I bought some sunglasses.

So I went outside and made my way to the first shop. I walked keeping my head down and only looking to the ground so I wouldnt scare anyone into calling the police.

The first shop was a jewelry shop

I had to ask the shop owner if he could unlock the box with the sunglasses. Looking at my face I think he knew why. However I immediatly regretted my decision as I was looking at some sunglasses around 150$-350$. So after pretending to actually consider it for about 10minutes I thanked him and told him that I would keep looking around in the street for a bit and might return.

I would not return.

I basically just oriented myself based on the street pattern to find the enttance to the next shop. It was a small kiosk that had a few sunglasses. These ones were far cheaper 10$-20$, however they only had these pure black, reflecting, evil shaped, douchebag sunglasses. I needed sunglasses but I if possible I wanted to find some which wouldnt make me look like a complete asshole.

I continued down the street into the next store and found myself in a clothing store. They had sunglasses but they were these super styled specially shaped sunglasses for kids. Though the transformers one looked pretty cool it was only big enough to cover an eye and a half.

I searched the ground for the next entrance and walked into yet another store. While looking around I couldnt find any sunglasses though. But it was a clothing store.....oh...oh no. I found myself in the middle of a lingerie sex shop. Though the store owner did ask me if I neede any help I did not want to know what kind of sunglasses they sold here. I quickly left the establishment.

A gift shop had a big rack of different sunglasses to good prices. After a while I had narrowed it down to 3 sunglasses but I couldnt decide. Then an old lady walked out of the store with a pair of sunglasses on her hat and wearing one over her eyes stopped next to me: "Show me young boy!" And I looked at her wearing a pair of dark brown simple shaped sunglasses. "It looks good boy" and with that she laughed and started to walk away. I had received a sign from the goddess of sunglasses herself and I wouldnt hesitate for even a second to follow her guidance.

I bought the sunglasses and walked back to the hostel. I spent the day here as "that one guy that wears sunglasses in the house" but I didnt mind. The Queen of sunglasses herself had choosen these for me so there wasnt a single place in the world were these sunglasses would be unfitting or out of style.

Tomorrow kim picks me up at 8:00 so I can sleep out for a bit
