I was told to pick things. I found that more interesting than anything else, as if the task was to see if we would define ourselves by what we picked out. If given a chance a stack of free things, what would anyone take? A lot, a little, too much, not enough? Something practical? Something fancy? Something useful? Or just something funky looking?
Would anyone dare to redefine themselves with the options they found? Biker guy goes to posh businessman? Grunge girl turns prom queen? Anyone? Probably not. People are forever looking for a way to blend in, to not to be noticed and not voted off the island. That’s an actual strategy you know.
Still, I found the whole thing very intriguing. I found some things, then some more things, then eventually I had too many things, but I didn’t want to put them back. Because who knows when they might be useful. When they might be interesting. Or when one wants to wear a cocktail dress to a hike.
