Haven't taken any self portraits in a while...not sure why. I used to *hate* taking self portraits...it wasn't that I was "camera shy" or anything (although I was, for a time) I think it was more so that I didn't like what I saw in the finished product. Because that girl didn't look like how I felt. She didn't feel like an accurate representation of myself. I think taking so many self portraits for this project is fascinating. Not only is it a kind of photo diary of what I wore over the past year, or how I fixed my hair and all of that, but I think it is helping me to be more comfortable with who I am, in a strange sort of way.
These are awfully deep thoughts for a Tuesday.
On tap for the rest of the evening: work on an essay, eat dinner, and then go to a concert with J. For some reason I suspect I will not like Wednesday morning...
