Well, first is a mermaid because they're mysterious and dangerous yet they seem so innocent. Ha. But really they're not gonna do anything to you unless they're bad mermaids. They just have the potential. And mermaids are just about the most amazing things ever because they have cool hair and they're mermaid-colored. Meaning green, turquoise, or any other color that reminds me of mermaids.
The second one is a velociraptor. Mainly because I'm pro at running like a velociraptor, but also because they're seriously misunderstood. Yes, they're dangerous too, but they're usually just trying to protect something. And they're so dang smart! They're like genius dinosaurs who communicate through high screechy noises (sometimes I try to impersonate those sounds, but it doesn't sound anything like the noise and Jurassic Park III). So yeah. I'm the mysterious, dangerously clever girl who isn't really dangerous because I'm like not violent at all. Get it?
Oh, and Kelsey told me to write Alfredo the French Gangster. Haha! Memories!
I think the best part of this totem, in terms of representing you, is the way that you interpreted these concepts. (I assume this shows something about who you really are, though maybe not -- I don't know you very well at all) You see something generally pacific and harmless -- a mermaid -- as potentially dangerous, and something clearly extremely dangerous -- a velociraptor -- as essentially harmless. Now that's a good symbol. I wonder: does it say more about who you are, or about the way you perceive things? Are you really the harmless velociraptor, or are you the one who sees the velociraptor as harmless? Does that, then, make you the harmless velociraptor? Maybe it makes you the dangerous mermaid.
