They say it's okay to miss theory classes for one reason or another. But they stress: never, ever miss the labs.
As soon as class ends I go straight back to company work while waiting for the next one.
They tell us to "wash up so you don't bother others." (You might wonder how that's even a thing to say, but when someone really walks past, you can't help but say, "Whoa, holy... wow, what is THAT smell!?")
The other students greet each other warmly, while I sit alone in the library munching on a snack. And yet... it's actually pretty nice.

I'm sleepy.
π Student Optician Diary, revisited #2

One old guy among a sea of kids (born in 2006). Class starts at 12:30, but I come in at 8 to get my company work done first.
Intricate engraved details all over, and a color that reinterprets the vintage charm of a classic gold-rim frame for today. A Kaneko I really love.

When I can't actively look at something, like when I'm driving or doing dishes, I convert my textbook text files to audio and listen.
I really want to do well, but it isn't going my way, and my heart feels heavy.
Anyway, everyone, be happy.
