I think this is a really funny picture. It looks like you're ambushing someone in true paparazzi style (e.g. a star coming out of the bathroom) for getting an unexpected picture, but then in turn they shot you! :) Also, the mirror looks a bit like it's part of the door frame, so fortunately this doesn't take away from the above effect. Small point for improvement: you could have cropped the left and top a bit (and mirrored the image from left to right), so it wouldn't have shown at all that the picture was actually a self-portrait taken in a mirror.
