The way I see it, life is about roles.
It's all about acting your part, after all. In the morning, I'm the grown-up kid, helping my parents make breakfast for my younger siblings. Then when I work at the shop, I put on a big smile and greet all the customers at the construction store when they come in to buy nails and wood and stuff. And when I'm at school, I'm the teacher's eager student, asking questions and making sure all my assignments are organized.
I don't understand it, when my friends say they're only their "true self" when we're hanging out on a day off. I think all of these roles are part of our true selves, and combining everything makes the whole person. I think they each express different parts; people say it's like I'm a completely different person, and actually, I kinda like it that way. But it's always been easy for me to figure out how people should act in different situations, even in English class when we have to read the stories the teacher gives us.
There are people in the Capitol who do that kind of stuff for a living, pretend to be other people on TV in Dark Days stories we sometimes watch when the electricity's on. For me, though, I think I like Shopkeeper Herb the best out of all my different mes. I know, we don't really look like most of the blond-haired merchants, but our family has been running this store for decades, or so my father says, and when I grow up me and my siblings will own the store.
