I don't know what I expect to see, I just don't recognize myself. I hate myself in photos. Every now and then I do this thing where I try to look at photographs of other people as I would if it were of myself. It is funny how many flaws you find in otherwise attractive photos that way. It shows how overly critical, to the point of ridiculous, we get when looking at ourselves. Even in the mirror. I know the person I see in photos does not look like the person I see in the mirror. I really have A hard time seeing myself in mirrors objectively. I see how I feel and I usually feel fat and blah.
