A Case of Identity: Side Quest

I chose to use my avatar on my snapchat account, my Bitmoji. My bitmoji and I are very similar in what I wear and what I look like. For example, it has red hair, glasses, and a similar outfit to what I wear. However, when I use it, it is usually displayed as very happy and energetic, and I’m definitely not always like that even though I’m a generally happy person. In general, however, I like to use avatars that resemble me in real life because I want to be as similar in game to myself as I can make myself be; I want to be portrayed in a realistic light during a game or on a social media account because I don’t like the idea of making myself seem different or better or worse on social media than I really am. When I am using my bitmoji, I only have a limited option of what I can make it do, so I usually just use it to portray emojis in a more specific sense. He can do things that I can’t do in real life in order to show an emotion that I might be feeling.
