What are some good vocabulary words to pair with this picture of me?

I'm riding in the car, but I'm not driving, so technically I could be considered a ""passenger princess""… or just a passenger really, but I think I'm searching more for the vibe from the face or how the face is being lit up.

Even though the image is taken at night, I do not think “noctivagant” (“walking or wandering in the nighttime; night-wandering”) really works, since wandering mostly gives me a walking vibe, or maybe a motorcycle or horse.

Anything involving reflections works with almost any mirror selfie, I suppose.

adventitious - accidental; appearing casually
quixotic - not sensible about practical matters; idealistic and unrealistic
capricious - determined by chance or impulse or whim rather than by necessity or reason; impulsive; whimsical

Nothing intended by any of those, just the best remotely relevant things on my words lists.

This sort of post gives me r/CKTinder vibes with the people asking for self inserts. Which kind of give off an awkward vibe.

I don't know it, but expanding my lexical depth for describing faces and emotions is an interesting curiosity. So much information is communicated visually, far more than words. It is a major factor in doom scrolling media, if not the sole cause. Our colloquial lexicology is slow to keep up for something that has become such a primary form of communication.
