Mika
Identity for me is something that has to be played with and explored, and not become complacent about or uninterested in.
Mika
My real name is Mica, spelled with a C. My dad is called Michael. He wanted me to be called Michael but my mother said over her dead body. She wasn't into the whole junior thing.
