I Am / I Could / I Should

This is a visual study of how this metaphor applies to my thesis; http://from-both-sides.org . I can change my personality and appearance with ease, morphing into a seemingly different character just like a chameleon. I present who "I Am", the regular me. In this case, I'm wearing a pink shirt with my everyday hair and makeup. I also portray the roles of two polar opposites — who "I Should" and who "I Could" be; two characters I do not consider "me" but who non-chameleons would expect me to be. Hispanics usually see me as American, but Americans would tend to see me as Hispanic. I have exaggerated these expected roles for various reasons.

Sweet! I liked your choice of songs, and you really conveyed going from chonga/chola to very neutral to a Marilyn/Cyndi/cute but artificial american.
