Onions, ogres, and parfaits.

I started a project today. It reminded me how many layers there are to complete one picture.

Lots of "How well do you know_____" quizzes on Facebook nowadays, and it's obviously hard to get a good score for anyone. This started because people want trick others into thinking they know them well. And people take the quiz to try and prove themselves as good friends. Everyone wants to know how deep their friendships really are, and it's pretty impossible to prove anything of the sort. Especially by a 10 question quiz.

I think even shallow people have many layers. They obviously do because they cover themselves by superficiality. I can't decide whether making friends and figuring them out makes things interesting or irksome. Or if it is even necessary.

I sometimes question how well people know me, and I know its always "not very well." But I don't mind too much. I don't like talking about myself very much, and people never really ask anyway. I don't know how I can help that.
