Who Should Paint You: M.C. Escher
Open and raw, you would let your true self show for your portrait.
And even if your painting turned out a bit dark, it would be honest. What Artist Should Paint Your Portrait?I'm a wild child at heart and a good girl in my soul. I love to ponder all the mysteries and wonders of existence. I'm emotional and sensitive at times, cold and unyielding at others. I believe deeply in the balance of nature, my own as well as in the universe. I drink from the cup of life and I make no excuses for my enjoyment and indulgence in its pleasures. I make mistakes, and i hope to learn from them. In turn, I offer my experiences to others for reflection as I seek greater understanding through sharing others' exeriences. I love a good cocktail, a great book, an amazing film, the right company, and the perfect moment, which is what I strive for in every moment of my time here on this weird little planet!!!..

Books:


You're Les Miserables!
by Victor Hugo
One of the best known people in your community, you have become something of a phenomenon. People have sung about you, danced in your honor, created all manner of art in your name. And yet your story is one of failure and despair, with a few brief exceptions. A hopeless romantic, you'll never stop hoping that more good will come from your failings than is ever possible. Beware detectives and prison guards bearing vendettas.
Take the Book Quiz at the Blue Pyramid .

Poetry of Rumi, Keats and Laurence Ferlinghetti. Trainspotting, Alice in Wonderland, Lord of the Rings, Dr. Seuss, CS Lewis, Shakespeare, Liquor, Sherlock Holmes, Gulliver's Travels, Gravity's Rainbow, The Oddyssey.....

Stewie from Family Guy, Ghandi, Buddha, JC, Sappho, Galileo, Aristotle, Plato, Einstein, my grandfather, my grandmother, my cat, my family, Rosa Parks, anyone who has a physical disability, people who suffer mental illness, people who stack their own dirty plates at restaurants, those who speak their mind despite inevitable opposition, people who suspend first impressions in wait for the longer lasting ones...and all the other heroes, who walk about us daily, unnoticed, unrecognized, for their various acts of kindness, compassion, loyalty, love, and honor that go without mention and with little to no thanks....Where did all the heroes go?
You Are Somewhat Machiavellian
You're not going to mow over everyone to get ahead...
But you're also powerful enough to make things happen for yourself.
You understand how the world works, even when it's an ugly place.
You just don't get ugly yourself - unless you have to! How Machiavellian Are You?
