I have been known to excel in my academics right from the day I stepped foot in school. That’s the projected self I show to the world. But, not many people know about my alter egos. You know they say, “Hell hath no fury like the woman scorned.” Like any other human being, toppers/chubby girls go through heart breaks as well. And mind you, if they are broken repeatedly for no fault of theirs, they can come back and bite you real hard. I have learned to let go a lot of these things, especially when I realize there was no bad breath behind it and it was purely a figment of my imagination.
There is a difference between having a split personality and an alter ego. In split personality, the two personalities have distinctive memories. That just means that the two personalities are not aware of each other’s existence. Alter ego is attained in full consciousness. It’s just a way of expressing yourself or projecting yourself in comparison to your otherwise normal self. A good example would be Marshall Mathers who also goes by the name Eminem and Slim Shady. Over a couple of days, I figured out I have an alter-ego. What I project myself to the world is a girl who knows her shit, excels in academics, works and pays her bills on time. My real self, the artist inside me is always trying to come up with new ways to make my life interesting, I paint, I write, I make videos and try to make new friends. I read about spirituality and try to link everything with the planetary positions. In the hoard of making my life interesting, the badass inside me turns into a mad dog. I do things which people would not expect from someone like me. But that’s the fun part about it. You can do whatever you want keeping a straight face and no one knows. It’s fun to watch people lie when you know every bit of the truth.
