The Unreal

Ok, so I'm Elli. And I really don't know what to write on a homepage...I'll write about me, I guess.

I love books. I could spend days in a bookstore if they let me. I also like to write. Well not the writing part of writing, typing is so much better but you get what I mean.

I despise getting my picture taken. I think that maybe in a past life I was one of those people who believe that when your picture is taken, you lose your soul.

I can understand how they believe this too. Have you ever taken a picture of a mirror so that you can yourself taking the picture? If you have the flash on then when the picture comes out you see the flash. It looks like a huge white light hovering and that's what many imagine when they think of the soul.

But I'm not saying all cameras should die. I love taking pictures. Not of people though. Places and landscapes are my thing. They're so much prettier. I try to find places that haven't been smoothed over with concrete and capture it on film. To remind everyone what builders destroy everyday.

And now we come to the reason I made this website in the first place. I write poems. I'm not sure if they are good or not but I like them. It's weird. You wouldn't think that I'd be a big poem writer but the words come to me (usually late at night which is partly why I can never sleep until it's techinally the next day) and I can't stop thinking about them until I write them down. Ok so "come to me" sounds really lame but I don't have another way to explain so you'll have to deal.

If you have any comments or anything click on the link at the bottom of my page to email me. I used to only check my mail once every year and I kept having to reactivate my account but I'm getting better at it so hopefully I'll read any mail you send me within the week.
