Alter ego.

♫ Alessia Cara - "Outlaws"
"There are infinite yous out there, infinite pathways for infinite selves to live infinitely variable lives. Who would you be if you weren't this version of yourself?"
Boy, did that question make you wonder! I don't want this to end up sounding like I don't like who I am today because I swear on all the bananas in the whole world I love myself just enough to not want to be someone else. But this is different; and you know it is - because it makes you want to be more than what you're capable of and I love being inspired like that even if it's just for a few freaking precious minutes so let's do this, oopaloompas!

First of all I would definitely be a mothereffing queen of the jungle the ever so graceful Ain the Tigress because damn, why wouldn't I be one? Lol the truth is I always thought that I would have been a tiger if I weren't born as a human being in the first place. It's probably because of all the similar traits that I share with this particular species and yes I'm not going to dive into that because you get the picture.

Meanwhile in a totally different realm, I would be this crazy New Yorker hustling from home to work just enjoying the city with a couple of friends that I couldn't stand but love with all my heart anyway. Of course I watched too much series which were filmed in this most talked about place in the whole world (and the fact that I've been there doesn't help in toning down the imagination) so yes, it has always been a dream to live such life but at the same time, I'm super grateful that I am currently here and not there, despite knowing all the amazing opportunities that I might miss from not living there but oh well, I'm not complaining at all. This just means that this particular vision of mine somehow scares me.

Apart from that, I don't wonder much though. That seems like a sad thing, isn't it? I may sound like I lack imagination but no, it's just that I'm actually pretty happy that everything is the way it is. I know it's bullcrap to be talking about fate and destiny to end it all but there's just something about how this whole life works that amazes me in a way that I don't feel the need to be someone else.

Unless you can be Johnny Depp - yes please go and be him instead.
