Wants

Terence is a dissatisfied young adult who is jealous of everyone, wants everything that people have and wants it better than everyone. He wants brains and biceps (and abs and pecs); he wants to be street-smart and academically-proficient; he wants to be a good teacher in class and a good dancer in clubs; he wants to be good at sports and remember song lyrics.

He wants to impress. He wants to be what everyone is being. He doesn't want people to stereotype him, so he wants to be everything. Perhaps he wants people to steoreotype him as the person who is everything.

Terence wants.
