For myself I would be looking at a reflection, but I always wonder is the image accurate. Thinking about a dirty window, looking out it the images you can see look fine, but after cleaning the window the images may look very diffrent although its the same image. So is the reflection I see an acurate image of myslef. Cameras offer a better option to see yourself but again, its still a refelction.

Its true, my girlfriend broke her nose as a kid so now she has a big bump on it, other than that she is very pretty, if she looks straight, you cant even tell. But in every photo of her ,her nose as she would say looks awful. I feel bad for her because she thinks that's the way ever one else see's her all the time.

A woman with a long past, and a short future. But a woman who will always be fine with what ever life has to offer.

I see plain reality. I see a face that is lined with age and shows my past - both good and bad. I also see the lack of sleep from trying to get too many things done:)

When I see myself (in a mirror or so) I always look (see) at the appearance of my body (not myself, because I am not the body) and nothing else is seen with these eyes of mine.

Yeah... only reflections. My eye sight used to be 20/20, but its been getting worse, so without my glasses, I can't see the details of my face as much.
When I see myself, I focus on my eyes.

well, answering this from a Cartesian philosophy, when looking at myself in the mirror, i see a reflection of a body, that is, i am not looking at my self, but a body [machine]. in Marcel's philosophy, when looking at the mirror, i see myself, not the self for it is hidden, but 'my body' which embodies my self. therefore, what i see is the manifestation of my self, for the body manifests what my self thinks or feels.
but without philosophizing, i only see a girl stressed. . . =)

When I see myself, I am usually looking at the reflection in the toilet water.

You can't see yourself ,even a mirror reverses your image!

No, it is not a reelection.
it is you, good or bad, known or unknown traits.
you are looking at yourself, but there seem to some self denial here.
