That meme

[valis2]

Taken from nearly everyone, most recently 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.



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.

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.

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."

Very interesting! Very, very interesting.

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.
