10 Things Self Portrait

Happy weekend friends. OK, I cheated a bit (I have 3, and not just one, Self Portraits...Warhol-ish though). Emily over at Follow the White Rabbit did this 10 things about me List and I really liked the idea. So here's mine. I recommend that YOU do a self portrait blog post too. It's a really cool idea. And Emily's blog (and art) is really sweet, check out her list over HERE also.

Ten Things About Me

10-I saw most of Tim Burton's films at the theatre before coming to the realization that he is my favorite director of all-time.

9-I have never taken an art class (besides high school & jr. high) in my life. I did take a couple art history classes though and really learned a lot about style, techniques, etc...

8-I like a lot of deceased people...musicians mainly. Well, I like learning about them and their lives. Ian Curtis, Kurt Cobain, and Syd Barrett are all people I would've loved to have met before they passed away (if time doesn't matter for Ian & Syd...a bit before my time).

7-A dream of mine has always been to travel and stay a while in London. I don't know what it is...something is calling me to go there.

6-I have terrible terrible TERRIBLE balance. I fell out of my front door before because my shoes were like an inch or two off the ground. It's ok to laugh...I know I looked crazy!

5-If I could only watch one film forever, it'd be Ghost World. Enid is a personal (though fictional) hero of mine.

4-I typically don't like going places where there's going to be a crowd. Uncomfortable.

3-Speaking of uncomfortable, I think I'm very socially awkward. Small talk is something I'm just not good at.

2-(Emily used this one, sorta) Most of my friends are water signs...as am I (a Pisces)...and overall we get along very well. Mike is a Cancer too.

1-Handsome or flat out ugly, if YOU (a guy) have a British accent, I will probably fall in love with you. Oooooh la la. ;) {ie. Syd Barrett of Pink Floyd, Ian Curtis, many British actors, and last but not least, my tour guide when I went to France in 1997...his name was David & he was from Manchester}
