Okay, here's one.

If you could transform yourself into something else.. anything else.. what would you be and why?

For example, here's mine:

I would be a caterpillar.  I choose that because whenever I want, I can change myself into a butterfly and fly away.  I have always wanted to have that chance to be able to fly away.. and especially to be something as beautiful and graceful as a butterfly would be wonderful.

Okay, now it's your turn.  Let's have some fun with this one

subconsciously, i think i can eat so much to make my stomach hurt, instead of my heart.

What scares me about butterflies and opening up...is that butterflies don't live very long. LOL! Sorry..I don't mean to sound morbid.

I'd transform myself into a whisper so I could reach the ears of someone I love dearly right now.

Perhaps my icon could say it...but really:

a cat.

Absolutely 100% cat.

hmm.. this is a good question, there are so many things to choose from... I like the caterpillar idea, but me personally, I think I'd like to transform into the wind, so I could travel far and wide and experience the ultimate freedom.  

With the word, I am mighty, with the pen I am free..

Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing.

Kamie comes in and drags Acies and Dopey out of this thread - kicking and screaming...

The question is - to people who want to be a cat like myself - could you hack being a stray cat? Or do you have to be a housetrained pet...?

I'd want to be a virus.  Small, unknown, and a nice private life.  Furthermore I could still be famous, known worldwide, like some viruses out there.  Yes, I'd definitely be a virus.
