WHO KNEW DRAMA COULD BE SO FUN. I had a good time tonight at practice. I think I'm starting to really warm up to the people there and get into the whole thing, which is really cool considering that I don't fit in too well with people and I can be pretty standoffish at times...I really got to stop doing that and start putting more effort into making new friends.

I've been thinking a lot about how I've been spending my time and how I'm managing my relationships with the people around me and it struck me that sometimes we do things because it'd be better for everyone who's involved. It's not so much about whether it is the right thing to do or not anymore. Sometimes we don't tell the truth because it might get us what we want, and sometimes we don't tell the truth just to keep someone from getting hurt. So is lying still an issue if it's only to avoid conflicts?
