What, were you previously blind?

No, it's been over half a year since my epilepsy medication was altered. Before that it was either altered too frequently, gave me headaches, and at first I had to clear a year after a seizure. So this is the first time in four odd years, pretty much the entire time I've been old enough to take lessons, that I can take lessons. Basically woot.
