- My Super-Pet

Delphoedog. The animal would be a cross between a dolphin, a phoenix, and a dog. It could fly, would have healing powers, be able to swim long distances, and be a great companion, like any dog is. Its wings would double as fins, and its legs would fold up to his body to make him more aerodynamic.

- How I Feel About Swear Words, Goshdarnit
-
Does it matter? No. Will I tell? Yes.
I have no problem with swear words, unless you are using them to hurt other people. Maybe it's because they are a normal part of life from me. Either I've heard people my age, my parents and their friends, and random strangers use them so much that they don't bother me. Now, I have a few friends who looks aghast every time someone swears.
For some people, it's a religious thing, but I'm not religious.
People looked shocked any time I swear, but It's just a natural part of my language, even when I was really little. If I drop something heavy on my foot, or am running late for class, suddenly I swear every few words. It's a habit. And I'm okay with that.

- If I Could Be a Character From a Book, I'd Be...
-
This might be cliche, and I might be a girl, but just hear me out?
Harry James Potter. He has a life that is the complete opposite of mine, and is something I would love to experience. He is famous, and I am far from it. His first memories are from a time when he was alone, unloved. I have always had family and friends and felt like I was a part of something. He has a name to live up to, and I have always had a create-your-own-adventure type of future. My life is sheltered. Harry, his whole life, is finding adventure and trouble - exciting. He has real, tangible magic in his life. I'm going to have to find that for myself. His life is pure mystery, and mine is purely predictable. He comes from a different place entirely, and I would love to experience it.

- One Thing I Learned Recently
-
I learned recently that you can't help someone if they don't want your help. My friend told me he's abused by his parents, and I spent weeks trying to get him to tell someone. When I told him I'd tell the school guidance counselor, he threatened to kill himself. My parents told the guidance counselor. When she talked to him, he must have denied it. So, if he was telling the truth, he just didn't want help, right? Then why did he tell me? Stubborn idiot. :)
It took a long time, and a lot of headaches to understand that I couldn't help him, because he wouldn't accept the my attempt. I learn the same thing from little kids. If they don't want me to help them button their jackets or clothe their dolls, then I can't do anything about that. Until, that is, they decide they would like assistance.
When people are acting stubborn, you can't do much about it. It's a hard lesson, but I learned it. And I learned it the hard way.

- People Make Me Roll My Eyes
-
First, I roll my eyes a lot. It's a habit, and I've been doing it since I was little. I am the eye-rolling princess (I think my mom is the queen).
Second, there are times that I don't mean to roll my eyes, but I do. Usually, this occurs when people are being stupid, and I'm forgetting to be polite. When I am being "respectful", I wait until they turn away before I show the signs of disrespect.
Third, I tend to not like people. I like my friends and many people I know, but people are generally annoying and pretty ignorant. This doesn't mean I'm not a nice person, just that I have a low tolerance for uninformed people. I am nice, though. Get to know me.
It's funny; all of my best friends hate people, and so do I. A salesperson recently told my mom and I that there are 52 states in the U.S. Cue the eye roll. Someone typed "your" instead of "you're". Grr! Text talk (OMG, LOL, TY, U, Ur, etc.) makes me crazy. Just spell it out. It isn't hard. People who tell me that global warming is going to come and kill us all. Yeah, and libertarians are the same thing as liberals. Do your homework before you start your preaching. That reckless driver pulls out in front of me when I'm ridiculously close to him, and my eyes start to roll. If my math teacher tries to tell me that circles have zero sides, then I roll my eyes, and if that language arts teacher tells a stupid joke or is grading too unfairly, I will absolutely roll my eyes. My classmates can tell when I'm going to roll my eyes, sense it, and watch me with smiles on their faces. Politicians trying to avoid that last question, because they don't have an answer or they realize they were wrong, cause my eyes to roll. People who think Universal Healthcare will solve everything wrong with the U.S. drive me insane.
Plain and simple: people are stupid, and I will roll my eyes at them all I want. Even if it is behind their backs.
