Alternate Identity Proposals

I was contemplating my alternate identity proposals. There are so many possibilities. The hard thing about the project is if you can stick to your character and follow the regulations of the role that you choose. I think that aspect makes the project really interesting and fun.

1. I was thinking about becoming environmentally friendly in every way and becoming vegan. It would be an interesting project. I just don't know how I would be able to execute this well without much education on the protocol of being a vegan. I understand it vaguely. I would also want to modify the products I use to be environmentally friendly to make the projects. It would be a lot of research, which would be fun to do.

2. Be a frat boy. Since my boyfriend is in a frat, I have access to the house. I have actually talked this project out with them and they are very interested in showing what their lifestyle is really about. They say they study and do community service and work out and eat healthy. I would be interested in experiencing this for myself. I would video tape the project and live as a frat boy in the frat on someone's couch and do activities with different guys that embody their lifestyle and are examples of what they do on the daily.

3. Be silent for 48 hours and no text messages either. Monks do the vow of silence thing and the say they learn from it. I guess for this one I would write about my experiences and if any spiritual learning or self realizations resulted from this.
