Top Ten Reasons To Live

(if I can even think of that many!)1

1. My novel: That’s five years of my life right there, so if I die, it’d better be published first! It's my baby, and I want to be around to watch it grow up, so to speak. Plus, my whiny emo character is NOT outliving me, and I don't care what anyone else says!2

2. My family. We’re super-close, so I WOULD actually miss them! And no, I'm not saying that to be cheesy... I mean every word.3

3. My boyfriend. The afterlife would suck without his hugs and kisses, and I want to have his babies one day, even if he doesn't want them. If anyone's gonna be poking holes in the rubbers, it's gonna be me!4

4. I’m pretty sure they don’t play goth-metal in cemeteries, which would suck, since Amy Lee's voice is to die for... Well, you get the point!…5

5. And what would happen to my stationery-collection? I've put such store in it over the years, and if anyone ever altered it, I'd die! If I weren't already dead... Yeah, I made a funny 6

6. There are plenty of whiny emo kids to dispose of… There's nothing trendy or cute about being a fake-cutter/scratcher/attention-whore, and if I can help it, there's no way in HELL that such a stupid fad will outlive me!7

7. I haven’t beaten Through The Fire and Flames on Hard yet, and I probably never will in this lifetime. But hey, I just upped my chances a hundred percent by not dying!8

8. Necrophilia is disgusting, and there's no way in hell I'm letting my boyfriend/fiance/husband pack me on ice. 9

9. I REALLY want to outlive my Sim! Where's the Elixir of life or the Anti-Aging cheat-codes in real-life? If only such things existed, then I'd have even more reasons to live...10

And finally…11

10. I may be a freak, but… I kinda like it, sometimes 12

    I liked some of your reasons but I'd love more detail.
    I asked for it to be at least 250 words... if you read it.

      Actually, I'm not quite done yet... I just wanted to make sure the reasons were there, since the site now deletes all my stuff about six lines in. No idea why, but I just wanted to make sure that these were in there to save my spot before it all got erased anyway
