Why being a 'chasmish' girl is awesome

I have been wearing glasses for most part of my life. But it is only recently that I completely came in terms with it and accepted them as a part of 'me'. During the early 2000's, it wasn't easy growing up as a 'chasmish'. You got teased and mocked, labeled and tagged. It was pretty much embarrassing wearing glasses in high-school and wearing lenses was such a hassle. I remember how offensive I'd be when I was labeled 'Jassi' from the popular TV show of that time, 'Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahi'. Having the same hair cut made matters worse.

But now, times have changed. So has the perception of beauty! Gone are the days when you were labeled as the 'geek princess'. Now it's all 'cool'. Oh well, did I mention, geeky is the new sexy? You can look absolutely stunning and pretty even though you wear those glasses. Here I list perks of being a 'chasmish' girl.
