Confessions of a Liar ( satire)

I am a liar. I am also a cheat, an atheist, a bigot and a chauvinist. I was that way since birth. When I was four I lied about being sick so that I could stay at home. I heated the mercury thermometer on the water heater. When I was seven I was the nastiest student and I lied about my homework. Also I let other students to copy my homework. I plagiarized the citations and also invented the quotes by Marx and Lenin when I wrote reports on them. I stole food from the school cafeteria for the stray dog. In the tender age of 12 I sabotaged the ceremony of becoming a young pioneer and soiled my tie. When I was in a young pioneer camp we cut down the electric wires and when I was interrogated I refused to tell on my friends. We also drank and smoked. I helped my friends (boys and girls) to socialize. I socialized too. Did many nasty things with girls. When one girl was accused by the school authorities of too much thinking about sex I revealed to the school students what our teachers talked about between themselves in their teachers room. I prompted to other students on the exams and also wrote the exam papers for the girls I liked. I wandered on the streets and tried to burn down my High School. I was once nearly excluded from the High School for 'coercing another student to drinking'. When in college I drank excessively, cheated on the quizzes and disrupted schedules. I let go a drunken bum from the police detain because I felt like that. I spent a lot of other people's money. During the graduate study I befriended a bunch of illegals and never reported them. I NEVER REPORTED ANYONE! When as a refugee in Italy I foraged in the abandoned houses and found there a refrigerator and a TV. I picked and ate abandoned oranges on the Termini market in Rome. I watched porno and lecherous shows. I started drinking wine when I was 14. I would lie in a moment if I consider that worth it. I have an irresistable urge to meet Jack the Ripper. I am sure he was a Russian like me.

Ok, fine. There is not much to add. Except that I am in my 50s, PhD, P.E, and a writer. I was awarded special awards in my High School for excellence on all the subjects, graduated Magna Cum Laude in Thermal Engineering, became a PhD in Physical Chemistry, worked in Chemical Industry, became a PE in this country, had been working here as an engineer since 1989, have multiple engineering praises, graduated from the course in a writing school, write stories in English. I brought all my family to the US; they all are alive, even the 86years- old grandmother, all well. My son is an adult and married. He wanted to become a wiccan and I bought him a broom. We celebrated the 25th anniversary with my wife who earns more money than me, God bless her. I have read thousands of books and saved the whole bunch of those from burning. I helped numerous people to get to a safe place when I was a refugee. I loved and I hated and I made mistakes and I had passion. Still have.

When my time comes I hope I would be able to say about myself what what curved on the ancient Egyptian tomb:

I did not steal

I did not kill

I did not stop the running water.

 

With that adjourn. I am back to the filthy French book full of sexual innuendo. BTW I HATE BUSH! HE US UGLY AS HELL.
