Fantasy TL vs Reality TL...

Like the title says, not much going on today really. I had a counseling session today at 11 am. Which made me spent the last of my money. Now I'm totally out of money until I either find a job or I get lucky and win the lottery, or somebody gives me money, or my taxes come in.

I just got back from my friend's Chris's house after visiting him for a while. Where the true fun really came. He has a Xbox 360 and one of the games that he has is NBA 2K. My friend loves creating players and creating his own team in franchise mode. So, he already made himself as a player. He is the center for the Chicago Bulls. He is 7'6", 310 lbs, with mad skills. So, he decided he wanted to make me a player on the team as well. So, we created me to be on his team. I was going to be point guard that would be a lock down defender and great offensive minded player. So, at first we decided that we would create me being 4'6", 95 lbs player with mad skills. Well, we had a great laugh when we saw me play in the game. The best comparsion I can tell you how I looked vs the other players on the floor was funny. I was litterally a golf pencil size player as everybody else was a regular pencil size players on the game. It was funny. Then, we re-adjusted my height to be 6'9" point guard. Well, after playing a few games, he decided to simulate the season to see how we did. Well, my player led us to the NBA title leaving behind a mark that probably would never be achieved in basketball history. For the season, I average a triple double while my friend average a double double over the whole season. Not only that, I won the leave MVP, was top Defensive Player in the league, First team All Star player. Not to mention I was the Final MVP as well. And I did this all in my first year in the league. It was sic! And I wasn't a ball hog or anything either. I scored nearly 1400 points for the seaon, had 825 assists, and like 200 or so turnovers in the game. I was a swell individual team player!

But what really got me thinking is the comparsion of my fantasy self vs my reality self. It seems like whenever me or my friend Chris created me that my fantasy self like totally opposite of my reality self. So, if you created a fantasy self, how would your fantasy self differs from the real you?
