Not making any sense, am I?
Haven't you ever got up in the morning and felt sharply aware of your own inadequacy?
Actually, inadequacy might not be the most accurate word. Not for me, at least. I'm not that inadequate. Well, actually I am, but it doesn't show. Soon enough I'll undergo a terribly harsh change. I think it'll be tough at the beginning, and then it'll be very cool.
Cool and tough might seem like different things, but they usually come together, and they escalate. Works like a charm: fear and awe, side by side. Allow me to illustrate with an example: Batista and Dexter from the TV show. Batista, on one hand, is a chubby and friendly spanish-speaking cop, who has a bad marriage and ends up in trouble whenever he tries to get laid. He's a character that the audience can understand easily. Dexter, on the other hand, is a blood-spatter analyst that kills murderers in his free time. He's familiar, because he tries to blend in with everyone; but he's a serial killer, he's a lab rat, he doesn't have feelings, but he tries to fake them all the time.
That's what I think I'll be like. I'll be a stranger trying to fake interactions I don't really understand.
