"Write the first sentence that comes to mind when you think of yourself."

Sigh, where to begin?

Maybe I'll describe myself:
I have blonde hair and blue eyes. I have lanky limbs and the biggest hitchhiker's thumb of anyone's i've seen. No.. everyone can see that.

Maybe I'll describe what runs through my mind:
I like to be with people one day. All day. But the next day I can't stand to talk to anyone. My bipolar social-ness is almost as bipolar as my confidence. I'm weird about becoming emotionally close with someone and there is one date, one event, that constantly flickers in the back of my thoughts and mind.
No.. maybe these things are too deep. That would be awkward if I wrote that.

Okay. I'm never over the top and I don't find myself to be anything special or very unique. Although I do play trombone. I guess that is a bit unique. Sigh..

Hi, I'm Clare and I find myself to be confusing.

This stream of consciousness was written for my Creative and Critical writing class in school. It's not the best written or anything but I like that it describes some of my insecurities and indecisiveness
