Dropping by at an art exhibit , i happened to see a cartoon artist. For a few dollars he’ll create your cartoon portrait.
Suddenly confusion, illusion or simply wild imagination made me think. If i will spend a few dollars, why would i need a sketch of my face? I have tons of photos on my facebook anyway. Besides, i can always look at the mirror and create a better portrait of myself, anytime for free , although sometimes looking at the mirror doesn’t lead to happy endings. π
So i rather spend that moment fulfilling a life long childhood dream……. to be one of those fairy tale divas.
Once again in my adult life i’m faced with a million dollar question:
If i could be a fairy tale character, who would i be?
Cinderella? Nope, i had a very happy childhood.
Sleeping Beauty? Hmm, true love kiss and a prince, almost , but my dad is not a wicked king. .
Okay, let’s try Snow White, but i don’t have a wicked stepmother.
Aha, since i consider myself beautiful, why not Belle in Beauty and The Beast?
Although i used to think that my past lovers are goodlooking, i soon discover they are really beasts, or is it just me turning into a witch after consulting my magical mirror discovering that my exe’s would rather have a young beautiful naive maiden than a power driven envious ambitious queen? No, still not me. I was never fascinated by a talking teapot anyway.
How about The Little Mermaid? I love the ocean but i can never be Ariel. I can’t sing and swim at the same time.
Definitely, i will never be Rapunzel. I refuse to believe that only a man can rescue me. I’ve got my wits and my long hair, i can be my own hero.
I almost give up, until i noticed a Dickies printed shirt worn by a passing stranger. Since the word “dick” always excites me, i think i’d rather go for Dick Tracy’s movie. What else but ‘Who framed Roger Rabbit.”
No way, i’m not gonna be Roger. Yes, I am Jessica Rabbit!
Although Jessica is such a cheater (i’m always faithful when i’m in love), the only reason i love her is her red va va voom dress, curvacious body (which i know i’ll never have) and that super mega red lipstick, that ever flashy red heels and her vivaciousness in making men salivate with her presence.
I’m not saying that women without curves aren’t sexy. Sexiness is a state of mind of course.
It’s just that, Jessica can hold a gun sometimes even better than a man can. Although, I admit that sometimes she acts like a narcissistic bitch (but who isn’t narcissistic in the current world of instagram kingdom?), still her fiery action filled comedy story reminds me that happy endings are not always about kisses.
Enough said, yes i am jessica rabbit , with or without that eight inch carrot stick.
Just curious, how about you, who would you be? Don’t worry i’m not judgmental. After all, it’s just fairy tale. π

It’s a pleasure my dear, Why Harry Potter? I too had together with my two older sisters also… let’s say difficult childhood! Stepmother…. Cindarella had it easy … compared with my sisters. I left home the day after my 18th birthday…. I would like to think that I could have lived in Hogwards … and had friends like he did .

I personally like being myself. But if I could choose a Diva it would totally be some kick butt personality. Actually for Halloween I’m going to be a blonde Wonder Woman. Is that too cliche’? Lol!

I love being myself – but if I were any fictional character, I’d either be Princess Ororo (Storm in the X-Men…the graphic novel, not the movie), or Koriand’r (Starfire in the New Teen Titans).
Great post! Love this.

Joel, that’s a very difficult question! I want Cinderella’s happy ending (in fact, I’m waiting for The One to bring back my shoe), but I can’t say I’m anything like her π
I think I should create my own heroine π

Although i really love lessica rabbit, i like cinderella, snow white, ariel and all the other lovely fairy tale characters too.
Its’s okay to be cinderella. Don’t take my ramblings seriously. Nothing personal.
Cinderella is a nice girl, it’s not her fault if she was in that circumstance. She is a very obedient stepdaughter and stepsister. A girl with a kind heart.
Oh yes, the glass shoe is fabulous. And definitely you can be your own hero.
