Amy was only 16 and a half,but when she was a little girl she learned to always question authority,she always demanded the truth.

At the ripe old age of 4 she discovered there was no Santa clause, (of course in Finland there was) he was a made up character, and that there where no flying reindeer and he didn't come down the chimney. She discovered this fact because Satan sounded just like her father, who incidentally died that day, but still she knew. It disturbed her deeply that Christmas had nothing to do with Christ. Although Amy was only 4 going on five,she understood that if your own parents would lie to you, what's to stop the rest of the world? The last thought that crossed Amy’s mind as a group of people she was watching dispersed, was this; people don't really care if you deceive them,or if a conversation has no meaning, as long as they are entertained in the process,that’s all that matters.
