Let's see... she taught me that It's better to remain silent and be considered stupid than opening your mouth and remove all doubt! 

But, actually, the six-pack sea animals killer was a new to me also. And she teached me how to remember things by memorizing them as a song. Especially if imagined it sung with her voice

I've never used 6-pack holders and I'm remaining silent in real life almost all the time, so that's not my learnings

But Lisa make me think about myself and my far-fetched problems, which is so silly in comparison with her life. I mean, now when I'm starting to worry, I can just think about I am almost adult, so maybe a bit more independent due to this, and I have no worries about college money for future, cause it's possible to study for free - so her life is harder, but she didn't give up, and it gives some hope
Also, I respect her possibility to go everywhere, and be active, when it comes to struggle for her rights or beliefs. I'll be glad to accept this strain from her, but I suppose, I need more time, although I understand, how it is great and useful to be brave :\

From her relations with Hugh and Nelson and from Marge I also understood, how stupid are tryings to change other person. If you can't accept person "as is", it's better to find someone else, or try to discuss it, but without pressure and making victims from yourself.

But anyway, sometimes all this learned lessons don't work. Only thing I kept from her - it's vegetarianism, other conclusions I accept theoretically, but can't always use practically, cause sometimes begin to act too childish :\

She has taught me that the exterior in not important, and that the most kind and nice person can be hidden under the yellow skin, bulged eyes and huge overbite. She also taught me to struggle hard against problems in my life, although I must admit that that lesson makes me suffer a lot sometimes. She taught me to like animals, and proved that being a vegetarian is something you don't have to be ashamed of. And as crazy as it sounds, she taught me to believe in angels in this world.

P.S. Beautiful topic.

I guess she taught me, being second best isnt always a bad thing. Calm's down the competetiveness in me.

 

I learned a great deal during my nine months living with a Lisa obsession...

I've changed a lot of my political views from right wing to left wing, and become a lot more concerned about the environment. I also have learned to care more about animals, respect their feelings and rights, etc. I'd say that these were the biggest changes in me... of course there were a lot of situations where I'd ask myself, "What would Lisa do?"
