Is it Time for Glasses?

Everybody knows that spending time in front of the computer can damage your vision, but I seem to defy that rule, and spend 10 hours a day in front of it, without any side effects. Also, I’m not like those who have started wearing glasses after one or two years working behind a monitor, as I’m quickly approaching 10 years of use, and my vision remains excellent.

Being very proud of my eye sight, I used to test it on different things such as moving cars, or reading small text on different things, from as far away as possible. My friends, however, started telling me to take care, because at one point my vision would certainly be affected.

Since my parents were telling me the same things as my friends, I decided to take up jogging. I spent some time online looking for the perfect jogging equipment, a good mp3 player, and the best time of the day to start. Armed with this knowledge, my jogging began, every morning.

The equipment recommended online was great, and made jogging a pleasure. The Sansa c250 also helped keep my mind occupied, while running. Small and cheap, the player showed me that price doesn’t mean everything. It even sounded better than my PC, which really surprised me.

Currently I still spend a lot of time in front of my PC, but I’ve also allocated a lot of time to jogging and other sports. My physical condition has improved drastically and I’m very happy my family and friends pushed me down this path. I like knowing that while I can still have all kinds of fun doing computer activities, I’m not wasting my health doing it. There’s a fantastic feeling knowing that!
