     13. It is not unusual to wish that our lives were more like the lives of the character in stories. How would you change your own life to be more like the world of your story?

          I usually like to read fantasy and not realistic fiction. Then I realized realistic fiction is just as good because I can most times relate it to myself and my daily life experiences.
          I don't usually get to run around the store and make a big mess, causing any trouble unless I wanted to be in trouble. If I could without me being in trouble I totally would! I can't bring a dog home and say were keeping it. I can't do a lot of things, but when I read this i felt like my life was just plain and simple with absolutely no problems to solve or anything like that. 
          If I could have Opals life I don't think I would want it. I wouldn't trade my life for Oplas. I did enjoy the book and reading about her life. I have a lot of responsibilities I have to do and if I had to live in Opals life I wouldn't want to start that over.
