Taken from nearly everyone, most recently [livejournal.com profile] cruisedirector:

Take a picture of yourself, right now. Don't change your clothes, don't fix your hair, just take a picture. Post that picture with no editing and post these instructions with it.

Uh, I don't ever "fix" my hair, nor do I wear makeup, and I rarely dress up, so this whole concept of "the REAL you, for reals" is rather wasted on me, but here you go.

For reals

Snape, peering over my shoulder, is not amused.

ETA: Want to hear something weird? Certain members of my family are convinced I have blue eyes. Also, friends of mine have said the same thing. I mean good friends, too.

Looking at this photo, I can't imagine how. They're green, right? Looks that way to me.

I think, deep down, he is terribly amused. :)

Hee, I don't either! (And Snape is NEVER amused, except when I'm out of the room.)

The rare moments I wear makeup, I often feel like I look like a scary drag queen. On my wedding day, for example, I was a little frightened when they were done with the makeup...

And Snape is NEVER amused, except when I'm out of the room.

...and he's playing with his dolls.

Lily!doll: "Oh, Severus, you're so sexy!"

Voldie!doll: "You're a big jerk! I'm gonna hit you!"

Severus!doll: "Not so fast!" *smacks Voldie!doll*

Lily!doll: "That was so brave!" *Severus!doll and Lily!doll kiss*

(This was brought to you by memories of Spaceballs...)

This is how silly I am...I was all like, "OMG, Valis is going to show us a picture!!" *bounce**bounce*

Then as it was opening it dawned on me...I already know what you look like!

Yep, just like I remembered! So cute! Snape isn't the only one who doesn't look amused!

I can see if you were wearing the right clothes your eyes might look blue...

*snort* That's hilarious! Yeah, you already know what my crazy mug looks like...hee!!

Snape isn't the only one who doesn't look amused!

I took about ten shots, but the first one turned out to be the best. The last one looked really unamused, let me tell you!

I can see if you were wearing the right clothes your eyes might look blue...

aha! That must be it. Because it's really mystifying to me--in the bathroom mirror, they're always green! ;)

Your eyes are an interesting and unusual shade of green, as far as I can see.

I like the wry smile, too.

hee! Thank you! Of the ten pics, this was the first, and best. The last one wasn't really as much a wry smile as an annoyed look...*snort*

Yes indeed. I'm glad to have found out that one member of my flist (not you) does not, as I had imagined, look like a pleasant Dolores Umbridge. For that alone, it has been a huge success!

I've really enjoyed reading my f-list this morning. Not that I don't usually enjoy reading it, but seeing everyone has been great. *waves*

(Oh, and those are definitely green or grey-green eyes. Not blue at all.)

Love the smirk.

Your eyes, I'm afraid, do not look green to me. I'd say grey, though that might change depending on whether I'm using a good monitor or a cheap one what colors surround you (clothes, background, etc).

hee! Husband was amused, too.

And he insists that my eyes change color with clothing/surroundings as well. I've always thought that was a strange expression--I think it's more accurate to say they look like a different color--the color stays the same, it's only the perception that changes.

Hmm. Green, yeah, but so pale that I can kinda see how they'd be confused. :P

Okay, I do wear make-up - I'm so bloody pale that my features wash out - but otherwise, I'd say you and I have a family resemblance.

Your expression is priceless. Wry and amused and very, "Yes, your point is?"

My monitor insists that you have blue-grey eyes. But then, my monitor is color blind.

Such lovely pictures on my flist today! It really tickles me to see what people look like.

My sister is even paler. Hard to believe! And this is me with a semi-tan from my trip to Cape Cod, as well.

Your expression is priceless. Wry and amused and very, "Yes, your point is?"

hee! It was very much, "Are you really going to post this? Hmm? This is silly, to take a picture of yourself and not post it, Valis."

My monitor insists that you have blue-grey eyes. But then, my monitor is color blind.

Very interesting! Very, very interesting.

Such lovely pictures on my flist today! It really tickles me to see what people look like.

It definitely shapes perception quite a bit, doesn't it? And I'm always amused by how some people look nothing like what I expected.
