A Thinking Woman's Post

What if we could be born, and then somehow decide for ourselves who and how we'll turn out? I know that in a way we do determine how we turn out based on the decisions we make over the course of our lives, but aside from that, what if we could go to some sort of vault, and press buttons giving us characteristics that we think we would want? Once you choose, there is no turning back. You have to live with that decision.

Pensive:
I never think a lot about the things I do. I just do them and face the consequences. What if I actually started thinking about things? Scary mama. hee hee.

Considerate:
I'm really a brat. I talk about people and make jokes, and wish to say mean things to people. I will tell others that I was thinking mean things, but I hardly ever say them (but I'm good at doing it in a joking manner if I do say mean stuff). Today I would chose to be considerate. I'll think about someone else's feelings for a moment.

Slutty:
I've never been the slutty girl (um..no comment. I thought I might explain, but I won't). I wonder what it would be like if people talked about me all the time because of my slutty ways. HA!!HA!! A lot of slutty girls always have some sort of insecurities inside, so I don't want that portion of the bargain, but I would just be slutty and not have the emotional baggage.

Fashionable:
That's not me either. I don't know if that comes from your mother or what, but fashion was never my forte. My mom is fashionable, so I guess I take after my dad. I think it's because of my body type. I think I've mentioned this before, but in 7th grade, when I did my growing, I had to choose to between wearing a belt or wearing highwaters. I chose the highwaters because belts suck. Now I can find pants that are long enough, but I have to wear a stupid belt and I really hate it. Don't even tell me about capris. I was raised on capris, only they called them highwaters. NEVER AGAIN will I wear pants that aren't long enough. I'm scarred, scarred. But, back to being fashionable-how cool would it be if everyone was like 'Peachy always wears such nice outfits. I don't know where she gets them.'

Those are the top four characteristics that I would choose from the vault today. What would you choose?
