It's all Lies

So, today I've learned a valuable lesson.

Lying

It's not a good thing, why do it? Even in joking it could result in an unpleasant thing. In my case, today, I just feel bad.

On my myspace I said that I live in Forks, Washington, rather than the place that I actually live. I just love Twilight so much and I want to be Bella so bad...I said that I lived there. Well, this afternoon when I went on, I saw that I had a message from someone I didn't even know. She told me that she had a friend in Forks and she is searching for her. And asked for any information on her.

Crap. What on earth do I tell her? Do I ignore it? Tell her the truth?

This is why you don't lie. Not even in the funnies.

So. I better get back to doing my homework...I'm not lying, I swear. ;D

Christmas '07

Thought of the day:

"It takes 64 muscles of the face to make a frown, and only 13 to make a smile. Why work overtime??" - "Gems of Thought", Improvement Era, June 1923

This year's Christmas was an especially good one. Besides the fact that I had the mood swings of a pregnant woman. But because I got to spend more time with mi familia, not that I don't already...but it was a stress free holiday (If I forgot about my online class). There were no sorrows for the most part, no recent deaths. Everything just happened to fall into place as the Christmas holiday crept around the corner. I am thankful for that.

Also, I realized how my family will always be there for me. Friends last, but only for a period of time. Families last for...eternity! 'Families are eternal' duh. This sudden realization was the best gift I could ever get this year. Even though I did get new Ipod ear buds that work amazingly.

Change=Good

Thought of the Day:

On Wednesday night I was at mutual, as always, talking to a good friend of mine. She was explaining to me how I have changed over the last couple years.

A couple of years ago, I was the cool, funny, wanted to be her/be with her Brittany. At this I was starting to get a little worried. But then she continued on saying that now I actually have things to say. So now I'm the cool, funny, wanted to be her/be with her, and the Brittany that has things to say. She likes talking to me and having good conversations.

Now, I'm not saying this to brag about myself in anyway. This past year I have been noticing my change, and thought it was for the worst. But its not, and for that I am relived.

On Friday night I was with my adoptive friends ( who happen to be Mimi's friends), They were pointing out to me that I was real mature for my age. It made me real happy.
