Who do You Think You are?

Well I can honestly say this is one of the hardest questions to answer in my life. Being honest with one's self is one of life's enduring adventures. I think this quote is a avid representation of what my life is like and what other people are generally like as well "We are like the rose, ever unfolding becoming more nearly ourselves". I could say that I'm tall, I have brown hair, etc. etc. but to honestly know me it would take more than the words that I am writing here. I would say that I'm extremely shy. If I were to pick an animal to describe how shy I am, it would definitely be a hermit crab. But, also at times I am the social butterfly. I think its strange how I can have an outgoing and timid nature all at once. I'm definitely a walking, living, breathing paradox. I love art. I love the craftsmanship of the artist work, the emotions and feelings being conveyed, and the story behind the work. I like to create art. I sketch all the time. Sometimes when I'm on the train I take out my drawing pad and catch someone whose sleeping (all in the name of fun). I love to read and explore. I like getting lost and finding my way around the city. How any of this has to do with media, I would say the constant exposure to images of the way people should be have forced me to rebel against the norms. My way of getting back at the social stereotypes is to befriend people who are normally considered outcasts. I feel at ease with these people because they are "ising" they are just being and that's enough for them and that's something I strive for as well, to "be".
