Pretty as a Peacock Wreath
Anyone who watched me closely as a child (and even into young adulthood. Who am I kidding, sometimes even nowadays) will know that I often chose to like things based on the level of uniqueness I would acquire by saying I liked it. I really wanted to be the person to discover something. I wanted to belong to an exclusive one-woman fan club of obscure, peculiar, interesting things.
In other words, I was a hipster. Not in a strictly stereotypical sense (though I did have wide rimmed glasses and some potentially "ironic" fashion choices), but none the less - the fewer people who liked a thing, the better!
If you asked me what was my favorite color, I was certainly not saying blue. Too pedestrian.
What did I want to be when I grew up? An audiologist (but certainly not just a "doctor")
If I was an animal what would I be?
A peacock.
So I really had a thing for peacocks. They're so unique! So different!
I remember the first time I saw a peacock in the flesh. It was during a roadtrip weekend in Montreal with my roommates from university, at the Biodome, and I was absurdly in awe. Needless to say, there is still a small hipster living somewhere inside me, and she really wanted to make this wreath!
