I've done a lot of personal work involving masking and interpreting.

I go to a Method school so internal work is the nature of the beast and if I can connect with anything, it's finding ways of making myself feel like I'm part of social class or structure my life in someway using common labels. It's just a terrible way of living life; trying to find peace and stability in something that is completely fabricated.
