side profile=ekkk!

Ok, let me just say that Grey's Anatomy has got to be one of the best medical shows ever created. I am completely addicted to the show. Now that I have all four seasons on DVD, it has become my little side project --reliving all the past moments. That's what my afternoon has consisted of.

This morning I went to pose for an art show. I've never attempted something as bold as this before; bearing all my flaws before a group of strangers to draw/sketch/paint. But what is life if you don't experience new things right??? I'll be the first to tell you that I am very insecure about my body. I absolutely hate being photographed from my left side, and I'm not crazy about my right side. I have a really awful side profile. This is a fact that I can accept. So to have people standing/sitting to my left & right while I posed was very intimidating at first. I even thought of pulling a "Mariah moment", and having everyone only view me from my 'good angle'. But you know what, I'm working on not being so insecure with my physical appearance, so I figured what the hell let's go for it. How can you get over an insecurity if you don't face it??? It was an interesting and fun experience once I loosened up. I was amazed to see some of the finished products. I am a huge fan of the arts --always have been, and now I have even more respect for artists. You have to have a real desire and passion to be a true artist, of any kind.
