What if...
I tend to drift away from the mainstream. I discover on my own alternative rock bands and pretty songs that mean the world to me, but I feel sad when the radio stations play them over and over again, until the words don’t rhyme anymore, until the beat of the music becomes dull to our ears. I go on quests to the library and choose books that call to me, titles and authors I had never heard before. There's an adventurous feeling to that. I stay away from popular soccer teams. Barça lost last night and I’m thrilled that they didn’t win, and sometimes I wonder why I’m so anti-Barça, why I can’t stand their success and the constant cheers of their fans - because, let’s face it, they always win; where’s the excitement in that? - and I think I feel that way because I want to be different from everyone else. I'm scared that my wanting to be so different is making me exactly like everyone else.
