Hey Internet, it’s Pixie Stardust McQueen, the boldest fairy of the web !
I have a lot of magical powers and among those I have one that I use very often: morphing. Thanks to this ability, I can turn into anybody at any time ! And as I am pretty practical, I use it to turn into a series/movie/book character to use his capacities and handle any situation ! So here are my 9 favourite transformations and the situations they’re so useful for me :
1/ When I have an oral exam or any onstage performance : Rachel Berry (Glee)
Rachel Berry is determination, fighting spirit and the will to believe in your dream, whatever happens embodied in a cutie yet overachieving young lady. What I take her for an oral exam or a singing contest (fairies like me love to sing!) is this presence, this charisma and this amazing voice that make her a star at the very time when she’s on stage. I love when puts aside her prude-daddy’s-little-girl and that she becomes sassy right away. With her Oops, I did It Again performance (originally sung by Britney Spears), she became a really sexy and confident performer when she only was a simple nice student a few episodes ago. And that’s what makes her character so interesting, that dedication she has to always push her limits further and come closer and closer to her dream no matter what it takes. That’s exactly what I need in a stressful moment like an exam or a performance when you’re in front of an audience ready to judge you on everything : a total dedication and a lot of focus to give everything during my performance!
2/ When I fight with somebody : Hit Girl/Mindy Macready (Kick-Ass)
Did you say badass ?
Without exagerating, I think Chloë Grace Moretz is just one of my biggest lesbian crushes besides being an amazing actress, she has a good presence and is so beautiful ! Anyways, I would be (one of ?) her character(s) because if we had Sassiness Oscars, she would win so easily! And when you fight with Mindy Macready/Hit Girl, it’s serious! Actually, depending on the intensity of the conflict I would choose between those two. For a ‘soft’ fight, Mindy’s sarcasm and biting wit would be enough. Imagine yourself fighting with your brother:
BROTHER: “Have you lost your mind ?”
YOU ( being Mindy Macready) : “Nah Mom and Dad already gave ya all the flaws they had !”
BROTHER : “No matter what, you’re unimportant!!”
YOU (being Mindy Macready) : “Dude, the day I will be less important than an idiot sat all the day long drinking and watching nude girls, I will go to ‘Farmer wants a wife’ to meet a rich old farmer so I’ll live with cows that will look like your girlfriend and I’ll feel less alone ! And even that way, I’ll be more useful than you!”
BROTHER : “Pfff… I’m out !”
(No, just kidding, don’t be that harsh with your brothers and sisters, they can be cool sometimes ! ^^)
But if I find myself in a fight with fists or if I get assaulted, I’d rather be Hit Girl: no mercy !
3/ When I’m ill: Gregory House (Dr House)
House is possibly one of the best doctors that have ever existed… Probably because he has never ever existed! Anyway, when I’m ill, a part of me wants to heal as quickly as possible and another wants to stay in her bed and being taken care of as well as attract compassion of people around her forever. As a result, turning myself into Gregory House is perfect: I heal myself in a completly anarchic way (he tests an enormous amount of products with unpronoceable names in every episode) to chill at home for a quite long time, I don’t worry about my illness because I’m so cynical that I couldn’t care less (or, at least, I pretend) andI finally find a remedy when I’m sick of being stuck at home !
4/ When I want to be the hottest girl at a party: Serena Van Der Woodsen (Gossip Girl)
Who wouldn’t dream of being beautiful, charming and charismatic effortelessly, just for a night ?
Well, I would! Even if I truly believe in the wole ‘be yourself blah blah blah thing’, it would be so cool to have her shine and do whatever the hell I want without caring or being fearful ! But the problem with Serena is that everything gets out of hand with her : drama in front of everybody with Blair, drugs, alcohol, sex-tapes, guys she spent the night with that she forgets next morning, other girl’s jealousy, stupids that never leave you alone… Actually Serena is nice for the beginning of the party to have fun but I prefer to be myself later in the night.
5/ When I absolutely want to be right: Sheldon Cooper (The Big Bang Theory)
He is ALWAYS right.
Sheldon Cooper. Sheldon Lee Cooper. Nobody can contradict me when I become Sheldon Cooper because I always have a scientific argument to prove my point. I just have to avoid trips to Texas at his mother’s or we’ll argue about theory of evolution !Plus, with Sheldon everything is always nice and neat, my house will never look like a moroccan suq after a week of sales. Being Dr Cooper, I’m sure I will get along with very well with Adrian Monk…
There are finger marks on your screen! Did you eat BBQ crisps in front of your computer again ?
6/ When I want to be comfortable in an awkward situation: Chandler Bing (Friends)
Yep. That’s right.
We all live awkward situations everyday, except me because I’m perfect (no, not at all)! When you say hello to wrong person, when drop sauce on your clothes at the restaurant, when you stumble and fall in public an so on… The best you can do in these regualar situations is to be funny to stay in control even in an embarrassing situation. And Chandler Bing (from Friends) mastered in I-make-jokes-no-to-be-too-awkward-even-if-I-actually-am (Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious cannot handle the length of this expression I’ve just invented ^^)! I don’t know why but most of people I know aren’t really keen on his humour but I am, and he’s my favourite character of the series ! He always has something funny to say, I almost had a heart attack while watching episode 11 from season 1 when his mother, an erotic writer (what if she wrote 50 Shades of Grey ? Oh my God, they can’t even make her wear decent panties in the trailer to make you want to watch it !) That’s what I like about him : the way he’s awkward and sarcastic at the same time makes him perfect for this kind of situations !
7/ When I have a decision to make: Miley Stewart/Hannah Montana
Hi. I’m schizophrenic.
Another reference to Hannah Montana? It’s not my fault if I grew up with that (and Kim Possible, too, which is better !) I often have a hard time making decisions and I always try to make compromises, but Miley Stewart has taken it to the next level: her WHOLE LIFE is a compromise! How do you call it, again when you have multiple personalities ? Oh yeah, schizophrenia ! You don’t know if you want to buy a book or a magazine ? Buy both of them ! You don’t know if you want to buy a chocolate cake or a strawberry pie ? Take them all, mix them together and make a smoothie ! That’s what I do when I have to make an important choice, when I become Miley/Hannah. But, it’s finally not that efficient because you can’t always make compromises…
8/ When I want to look like beauty standards: Betty Suarez (Ugly Betty)
Looks like Betty has dandruff…
“Why choose a girl considered as ‘ugly’ to look like beauty standards when the Hollywood industry is full of hot girls?” you must ask, young padawan. Well, because I just wanna break the rules! Waddup musical reference! I’m one of those hippie-like people, I must admit it, who wants to live her life like nobody was watching (Waddup musical reference #2!) But let’s be real, I bet that, from the bottom of your heart, you do too, am I wrong ?
Waddup musical reference ? =P
9/ When I want to be super powerful: Merlin (Merlin)
When we talk about power, we often think about characters with a great physical stregth like Thor or very influent and rich people like Christian Grey CEOs that run big international companies. But I think Melin is way more powerful than he seems. Even if he’s the Prince (WARNING SPOILER: then King) Arthur, he’s one of the only druids of Camelot that hasn’t been caught (magic is forbidden in Camelot and if you use it, you get killed). When you’re a little discreet servant who has a near-monopoly on magic in a city without anyone knowing it, in my opinion you’re more powerful than any of the richest moguls of the planet ! I know I already have magical powers, but I’m a fairy: I’m flamboyant, while Merlin is more discreet !
In the end, all of those transformations are tiring and despite certain sides of me I want to improve, I wouldn’t be anyone else in the world because I’m unique like everybody else and I can only make this world better if I am completly myslef !
So, I hope you liked this article (despite the cheesy-ish ending, haha) and if you have characters you would be in any daily situation, feel free to tell me in the comment section below !
Looks like Pixie is blasting off again ! (Check out this Pokémon subtle reference!)
