So Sarah and Luke both gave me an awe-summ award! It basically means that I have to list 7 things about myself that are awesome. Thanks guys!
It's good timing I think, in trying to figure out who I really am under all the self-defence tactics that make up what is referred to as my personality, as well as having time on the rocks to think about it, and now having visitors so I've had a chance to observe my interactions with people, and I've decided to try and stop being all cynical and self-deprecating. Lets hope!
At the same time it's harder than it looks to write this, so I'm going to go right on ahead and pretend that nobody will read it so that I can toot my own horn as much as I want to!
- I think I'm becoming a good photographer * A few years ago I had a photography assignment that was one of the worst moments in my undergrad career, and it still makes me upset to think about it. now I feel like I can hold my own with a camera and, to make things better, I LOVE taking photos and I have the most awesome camera ever!
- I can find humour in just about anything. As much as my sense of humour can get me in trouble, I find pretty much any situation amusing, and thus I rarely get bored!
- I can handle being alone for long periods of time. My love of solitude confuses a lot of people but I love the quiet and the calm as long as I have enough going on to stop me getting bored. Think of all the uses for having this kind of personality: I could succeed as an explorer, an astronaut, the list should be endless but I can't think of anything else.
- I just lost horribly in a game of Scrabble and that's OK. Who knew that Scrabble was a strategy game? Anyway anyone who knows my runaway competitive tendencies would understand that not caring about being better than everyone else is a very big step!
- I can bake awesome fudge and brownies.
- I can talk at a speed understood only by animals and close friends. While this may seem like a drawback, it means I can watch movies at double speed and understand what's going on!
- I can read insanely fast.
Now I tag: Kath, Suvvygirl, Po, EEbEE, Taz, Tamara and Jeff!
You're AWESOME!
* Yes, I know, I know, I know! i will post photos as soon as my laptop agrees to recognise my camera and my connection allows photo uploads...

Scrabble is a major strategy game.
Oh no I really am not good at this. I cant' think of things that I like about myself. That is so so hard.
Wow. Apart from being good at photography - which I'm not and I"m dying to see you post some of yours on your site - we're pretty similar I think.
I also really love solitude. I'm a friendly and fairly outgoing person, but also crave a fair bit of 'alone' time, which makes working from home the ideal place for me - with the dog Milly and rabbit Skipper as my assistants of course.
I will get to your tag quick smart. :)
Oh and yeah, Scrabble and I don't get on too well either....
