This is a question that I have been pondering about for a while. Please give me your opinion on this question.

When you tell your family that you don't like somebody, and you have almost completely deluded yourself into thinking that you don't, but you know deep down inside you do like them. Does that count as lying to yourself, and others?

    I guess it just depends on why you're saying you don't like them... :S Are they the kind of person you don't usually like? Do you just not want people to find out, because you want it to be a secret? (I had a lot of secret crushes that I would say I didn't like because maybe they weren't "cool" enough for my friends or something). I don't see it as a "lie", but maybe just a little white lie, and it's not one that's hurting anyone... That's kinda a toughie!

    It's not as if I'm saying mean things about this person.

    There is nothing wrong with pretending something doesn't exist. It's as I always say, "Ignorance is bliss!".

    Plus, lying is bad, but you aren't obligated to tell everyone everything you are thinking. Besides lying about liking someone doesn't even count as really lying.

    PS: Who is it? >:)

    Hmmm, that is a toughy. Are you meaning you don't "like" them...like "like like" or just in general? Because that would be soooo different. Clarify before I give my answer, I don't want to sound foolish haha!

    It sounds to me like you're talking about a boy. If that is the case, it makes sense to pretend you don't like him, because you might be feeling too embarrassed or shy to admit that you really DO like him! As for telling YOURSELF you don't like him when deep down inside you know you really do...well, maybe that is to protect yourself from possibly getting your feelings hurt. To me, those aren't REAL lies!

    Or I'm totally wrong about all that junk I just typed.

    If you're talking about something else, than I am totally and completely confused, because I'm foolish like that!

I Got Accepted to the Univeristy of Awesome!!

I got accepted to my dream school! Holla! This gif, explains my reaction perfectly! It was an amazing day! I had just gotten off of work, and I was in a bad mood. I grumpily walked into the house and there was my beautiful manila envelope that read "To: Lauren Cord--- From Sam Houston State University". I had already received an email from them informing me about being accepted. However, getting an actual physical notification was beautiful. After seeing the envelope I proceeded to run through the house, singing, dancing, and saying, "I got accepted, I got accepted, I got accepted. They want me. They really want me." I am just grateful that no one from my family slapped me, and they allowed me to celebrate for at least five minutes! Today is the first day I've posted since Thanksgiving....So I am planning on posting a couple posts to catch y'all up on my life! You know, if you care and stuff...

Yeah, Well I Got Tired Of Your Name So I Changed It And Stuff.....

Yesterday I got my sword!!! I can't believe I've advanced to Sword Forms already!!! I'm super excited to start, but I'm a little scared of cutting myself while learning! (Just like Cutter-Dude) One of the boys in Kung-Fu named his sword: Picklepimp after the sword that he fights with in his favorite video game. I love the name Picklepimp !! I want to name my sword Picklepimp . I don't think I can live without something named Picklepimp in my life. I think it's an extremely funny name, and I want to steal it from him..... I still haven't found the perfect name for my bo-staff, and I've had it for months! I have a really hard time choosing names, I always want to go back and change it..... What do you think I should name my sword? *I named the skeleton pen I got for Christmas "Killian", I really like that name and I haven't had the desire to change it yet! (That's a record or something!)*

Another crazy thing that came out of my crazy mouth!

Warning:This post contains an atrocious name, and mention of Hepatitis numerous times. A couple years ago our home school choir did a "Patriotic themed presentation". Everybody dressed accordingly, I wore my special patriotic visor that says " Princess Sunbum !" All the families were required to bring cookies. Needless to say there was a butt load of them. After the show was finished I went to go and snack with my friend Hannah Banana, and her friend Francisca. Alright, I don't remember the girls name. I guess I could have given her a better name but I'd rather not. As we were eating Francisca's brother ran up to us and told her,"This cookie is gross. I don't want it. Do you?" She took it, she took one bite, and made a nasty face. Then she turned to Hannah Banana and handing her the cookie. Hannah surprised me by taking a bite too! I couldn't contain my disgust and I said,"Hannah! By sharing food that other people have already bi
