Everyone, my friends, co-workers, and aquantences believe that I have an identical twin who still lives in Greece (where I was born).
My parents divorced when I was a child-True
They couldn’t decide who got custody of their daughters-True (I have an older sister, remember?)
They each chose from a set of identical twins which one they wanted-False
One of us came to the states and the other stayed in Greece-False
I must be a damn good actress because I have convinced people that all of the above are true.
One time I even went to school with a heavy Greek accent pretending to be my twin and people believed me.
None of my ‘friends’ even know me for what I really am-a liar, a manipulator, a sociopath.
I even used a work computer in my office to Photoshop two images of me together!
Sometimes I feel bad about my lies.
Then I realize that people are gullible and that’s their fault, not mine.
Why should my fun and humor suffer because of someone else’s ignorance?
In return, I trust no one and I doubt everyone.

update your blog...i like reading it.
I'm confused. Why is it other people's ignorance that's the problem? They're not being ignorant; they have no reason NOT to believe you (i mean it's not a super implusable story, although admittedly a little parent-trap-esque). if you don't have anyone close enough to you that they would know something like that's a lie, then that's your problem.
Chieu, I have updated. Enjoy.
