Emmie the Driver

hey. its emmie, im ashley little sister. im 16 years old. for as long as i can remember, she has been my "older twin." people even ask us if we were twins, its fun. she should come for halloween and we should dress up as twins...it would SWEET!

today, for the first time, i drove with my sister, actually two of my sisters (and no parents! woohoo!). i only have my temps, but i could have my license (since i am 16 already). but i went to mexico this summer to help people with a catholic girls' group called challenge, so i haven't driven enough hours to get my license.

im not a big fan of high school but, hey, only two and a half more years. everyone just seems to be so superficial.

wanna hear a funny story about ashley? i remember when ashley and mike and one of my cousins was in the car as well. my cousin and i both were chanting "chinese fire drill." so finally, in the middle of a road, ashley and mike gave in. mike jumped out of the drivers seat and ashley switched and my cousin and i ran out of the car and switched each other in the backseat. then all of the sudden a police car passed us and did a U-turn and pulled us over and asked us if we were doing a chinese fire drill. believe it or not ashley lied to him and said "oh no, he (pointing to mike) is just not from around here. so i thought i'd drive" i dont know if he believed it or if he didnt feel like arguing but he let us go. it was fun. i plan on doing it again...col

adios amigos

  9. Well, apparently the gorgeousness runs in the family! Ashley, I love your little fib in the chinese fire drill story, and Emmie, good luck getting through high school. Believe me, it may not be the best time of your life, but when you look back on it, I bet you'll have lots of fond memories :)
