and I don't believe you"
The Fever by The Academy Is...
Today I learned that I've been living a lie!
My name is not legally Ebony Zoë Jaroch-Pépin. Infact, I've been known as that for the past 15.9 years of my life, but I was looking through some documents because I'm getting my Czech citizenship, and I am not what I've been known as. So, according to the government, I am just plain Ebony Jaroch-Pépin. This kind of depresses me.. All this time thinking, and being told that my name is that, but it never went through? I feel like I've been a liar, and I rarely lie! I guess it could always be worse, but still, I find it a bit heart breaking. It's like, a piece of me has been ripped away. I s'pose I could still use it, but it just.. seems weird now...
On another note, earlier today I found this, and I thought it was rather interesting :D I don't have the webstie I got it from, but I have who wrote it. ENJOY
LIFE.
1. You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it's yours to keep for the entire period.
2. You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called, "life."
3. There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial, error, and experimentation. The "failed" experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiments that ultimately "work."
4. Lessons are repeated until they are learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, you can go on to the next lesson.
5. Learning lessons does not end. There's no part of life that doesn't contain its lessons. If you're alive, that means there are still lessons to be learned.
6. "There" is no better a place than "here." When your "there" has become a "here", you will simply obtain another "there" that will again look better than "here."
7. Other people are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate about yourself.
8. What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need. What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.
9. Your answers lie within you. The answers to life's questions lie within you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.
10. You will forget all this.

"Just be pretty but naive,
anything you hear is what you believe.
Let the rhyme get stuck in your head,
wish you had undressed me in your bed."
