Rules.

Growing up, there were a few things our in house that were simply not tolerated:

- the words "shut up"
- hitting
- locking my little brother in the basement
- lying

As I got older, this list grew to:

- boys in my room
- skipping school
- lying

Somehow along my journey from a sweet, wide-eyed child to the young woman I am today, I learned to lie better than probably anyone I know.

Now, I'm not saying I'm some huge liar, because I'm not. It's impossible for me to lie to my sisters, to my best friend.

But if you are someone who is standing in front of me and expects me to tell you how I feel, don't expect an honest answer.
I couldn't give you one if I wanted to.



But if there is one thing I know about rules, it's how to play by them.
