It looks kind of thirsty, but the angle of the leaves on these can be deceiving that way. I'm sure you're in a much better position to gauge that. Plantladylin said about the same thing I would say. As it develops, you should be able to see what it "wants to do."

The less light it gets, the more inclined it might be to act vine-ish. If the light is slightly deficient, it won't grow as strongly, and in nature, it would crawl as quickly as possible through the low light on the forest floor until it found something to climb up, to get into more light, where it might change leaf shape or size upon finding sturdy support and more light. That's one of the things that makes these plants so tricky to ID. A same plant in its' juvenile state can look completely different from a mature specimen. Some potted plants never develop past the juvenile state even though they may be decades old.
The golden rule: Do to others only that which you would have done to you.

Try to be more valuable than a bad example.
