Sinister: Will i ever be windowdressing?
Congratulations, you have been selected to take part in an online quiz that could win you a lifetime supply of Green Jelly. Not only do you get the jelly, you also have it fed to you by a man protesting that he is the real Rod Hull. (Please take a moment to remember the precious children's entertainer) The quiz refers to my subject line. In Family Tree there is the line about "dummies in the window" and it has got me thinking. Being not the most asthetically pleasing person working in North London suburbia i realise just how many pretty people there are strolling around. They embody the "cool" i longed for in my not so distant school uniform days. I believed that i would be like them eventually, perusing fashion magazines and filling my head with false ideals. I refer to these people as mannequins now, because it makes me feel better. Therefore the winner of the quiz will be the individual who can answer my subject poser. Reading this back i sound wan and whistful and perhaps slightly listless. As i am still trying to be the me i think i am. Audrey Hepburn has replaced the trendies, posing an even greater challenge, asking me to be a lady and buy a nice lipstick. Though this time i love her for it. Choose your icons with care, as it is difficult to resent an image of someone you wanted to be. A charade. JoJo. ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
