Things I Do.

So I'm sitting here bored and decided to play around with my web cam. I took a photo of myself and looked at it.
See, I hate it when people take pictures of me. It drives me crazy. I am always picking something out of my teeth or pursing my lips in uncomfortableness or have some stupid look on my face (rolling my eyes or looking nervous). It's funny in a way, because I'm always taking pictures of people. I should be more comfortable with a camera aimed in my direction, so I've been practising my 'normal' face (the one I have when I'm just sitting around listening to people talk about stuff) and taking a picture. Not only do I want to feel comfortable in a setting where someone's taking pics (like with my family or whatever), I want to know what I really look like - because the perception I have of myself when I look in the mirror is always distorted for whatever fucking reason (I am a young woman who cares about appearance and has some issues with self-esteem. What can I say that would surprise you?)
So anyways, upon this exploration tonight I realize that I continue to look a lot like my dad (it sort of bothers me to resemble a man - I know that's ridiculous), and my nose is shaped like a pear, or a butternut squash.
I realize I'm okay with that, and quickly forget about everything I've just been thinking about.
I wash up for bed, and am sleeping before the clock hits eleven. I guess I just got bored with myself.
