Day 11: you're so vain
After several attempts of doing a few other shots and nearly losing my marbles, I came up with this idea.
Mirrors. Always interesting things these are. I used to think mirrors were the window view to an opposite world. Hmm. Maybe inspired by Alice and the looking glass? Actually thinking about it, it would probably be down to the fact that I watched The Poltergeist as a young child, watching clips about the reflection of the little girl who was really scary....
I know several people who are scared to look at mirrors at night time in fear of seeing something they aren't meant to see, like some scary man standing in the corner or seeing not your face but your skull, or something sick like that.
But whenever I come across the mirrors at night it's usually when I'm half asleep and making a trip to the toilet, without my glasses, so I wouldn't be able to see the mirrors to freak myself out anyway!
But none the less, mirrors are such a good invention, whoever discovered or created them, still awesome. Back in the old days they just used metals or even a large tub of water just to see ones reflection. Interesting how today we MUST have mirrors. But back in medieval days people didn't even know what they looked like except for the faint outline upon the water's reflection etc.
I wouldn't say I was vain. But it is important to keep one's appearance acceptable. But I wouldn't go as far as carrying a mirror in my pocket. But one thing I do love seeing are smashed up mirrors, it's really cool how the reflections are then so messed up, well not that I've ever smashed up mirrors [not that I'm superstitious] But it's just cool to see the messed up patterns in the reflections.
To end I want to thank God for mirrors, I wouldn't know where I'd be without it. Well, I know if there weren't mirrors around eyebrows would grow bushy, how would I put on mascara? Lipstick? Squeeze my blemishes. Oh and not to mention hair styles, hair cuts. and most vitally, how would contact lens wearers pop in their contacts eh?
Oh how we take mirrors for granted.
