I am Alicia and I live in Wisconsin where there is little to do but write. My entire life all my teacher's praised my reading and writing skills. It never did go to my head, but it did raise some self esteem issues. I am by no means a terrific writer. I am 24 years old and have never really applied myself at any schooling.

I want to make it very clear that I respect everyone's opinions as well as their beliefs. I hope they do the same for me. I like to ponder which is why I have a pretty cool imagination.

It wasn't until the 4th century that a monk had written down his list of "evil thoughts" that it had become popular. Since, there...
