self-impression


Photographs are funny. you never see yourself. everyone else gets to look at you, but you don't. all we can strive for are facsimiles. the mirror is how most of us see ourselves, so we have a completely distorted view of what we look like. I suppose voice is similar. People tend to not like pictures of themselves nor the sound of their recorded voice. It's almost like that dream of being on stage and knowing you're supposed to play a part in a play or sing a song or do a dance and yet you have absolutely no idea what's going on. Most of us live with our faces and voices we have, yet when we see/hear an approximation of what others see/hear, it sounds foreign and looks different to us. we're surprised by something we're living every day of our lives.

vegan views

I don't mind being vegan, really. i actually don't crave cheese and eggs and milky stuff. what i DO mind, however, is that i don't get to buy delicious delicacies from the bakeries and pastiseries. And i did like the battenburg slices...though i had to throw most of it away as my tummy rebelled when i tried it out three years ago.


But it is a bit dissapointing to look at these displays and know their as useful to me as the butchar's window.

Fish Feathers

Ever since i was a kid, the question, "Would you rather be able to swim like a fish, or fly like a bird?" has sat with me. So, I have decided i need to take a survey. I made a poll on "doodle" but i may get fancier than that and try "survey monkey" or something similar. For now though, papers are waiting to be read and written, so the "doodle" will have to suffice.
