Meme.

This came from the empress. It's called The Truth Meme. (Sorry that the font came out so small. I don't know why that happens.)

35. Can you easily tell if someone's a fake? Probably not as well as I'd like to.

44. Do you think too much or too little? Waaaay too much.
    
45. Do you smile a lot? I think I smile a normal amount, but it probably doesn't look like I'm smiling to people around me because half my face is paralyzed. I actually only realized that this morning, that when I'm smiling, other people don't always know it.
