Life in plastic
I wish
by Iza Deleanu
I'm so tired of working hard. What is my reward for working and giving my one hundred and ten percent? Am I making more than the average Jo? Do I gain respect and credibility?
No way Jose, we are equal as pay but as work, it's another story! No more Cinderella for me! I want to be... Ms. Lopez. Yeah, Jennifer, you hear me. I WANT YOUR LIFE!
Your life now, not the one that looked like mine at the beginning. I know hard work pays, but hey, no time for that. I'm in my forties I want to enjoy some sunshine and have all the freebies because of my name, I mean her name.
They say if you repeat your wish in a loud voice before bed, it comes true. So, here goes nothing! I wish to wake up as Jennifer Lopez.
The next morning, as I was looking into the mirror I exclaimed:" Damn, what a booty! And look at this pretty face. Hello, Jennifer!
Wow, look at me I'm Jennifer. Let's see if I got the freebies too."
I started walking around. Yup, definitely not my own one-bedroom apartment. I got a mansion extra dimension! I think the kids are at the boarding school so I can enjoy myself having a day at the spa. I never had mani and pedi before, so I might as well try one of those before the offer expires.
Look at that, I don't even have to step out of the house, I have the whole shazam right here. All I have to do is ring a bell. Oye mi canto. I know I am Jennifer, but still Gloria Estefan by heart.
Okay, let's explore the house. Last floor, huge terrace and... Wow, an infinity pool! I love that! Forget the spa I will park here. " Conchita, un jugo d'arancea pour favor!"
Okay, as long as I don't have to write I can mumble some all-inclusive resort Spanish slang. I know my drinks: Margherita, Pinia Colada, Aqua Fresca, Aqua Minerale, Cerveza. And the food, whether it is cerdo, Pesca, and polio.
I am quite modest, I don't want to spend any money, so I am happy with what is in the fridge.
Wow, the fridge is a mini restaurant! All you want and all you can eat is there. Let's check the fashion section.
Ms. Lopez, I mean I have quite a wardrobe and look at my shoes. Mariah, I think I have more shoes than you. What do you expect I am still popular.
Poor Jenny, the only thing she got from this exchange is my poor white privilege. Alonzo Les enfabt ou
travail!
