I think you nailed it with the "becomes someone different" part, but "splitting yourself in half" sort of muddles the water.
It's not really splitting yourself in half at all, not any more than having a child, or more accurately an identical twins. You will not feel any consciousness of the clone; it will have it's own consciousness totally separate from your own.
