Edwards - Day One 02/18/2008
 Left to Right:  Alyssa: So I guess I'm supposed to tell you about my life. I can pretty much sum it up in two words. IT SUCKS.  Alyssa: It didn't use to suck. Mom owned a successful beauty parlor, and we lived in a big, fancy house. Jacob and I had tons of friends at school, and I had the sweetest boyfriend. Not anymore. Why? Because Mom and Dad decided that we needed an "adventure." So we packed up all our things and moved out to nowheresville- AKA Crystalline Valley. It wouldn't have been so bad, but then the moving truck with all our stuff was hit by a lightning bolt. The driver escaped; our stuff didn't.  Alyssa: In addition, when we arrived at our new "house" we discovered that it hadn't even been built yet. The construction workers we had hired were on strike. Who has ever heard of a construction worker strike? Not me. So we're stuck sleeping in three tents with nothing but the clothes on our backs. Dad rented a port-a-potty and one of those showers you use at the beach to rinse off salt-water after swimming in the ocean, but other than that we have NOTHING.  Alyssa: Nice adventure. Way to go, Dad.  Alyssa: Dad. We don't even have a fridge. Jacob had to order in.  Alyssa: Mom mangaed to find a salon chair- don't ask me how- and didn't waste any time starting up her old buisness.  Alyssa: Of course I have to do all the work. I love giving make-overs, and working for Mom beats getting a job at a fast food place, but shaving some old guy's facial hair? Ew!  Michael: Sorry to interrupt, but you might need to get a second job. You see, your mom and I invested all our money into this new house.

She looks like a little kid throwing a temper tantrum xD Mon, 18 Feb 2008 10:33:50 Brandi- Don't worry, there will be more about the boys in rounds to come. :] Thu, 28 Feb 2008 09:03:32 The tents are too funny!! No fridge, living in a tent, doing make-overs outside, I can kind of sympathize with Alyssa lol Leave a Reply |
