V-Iest-P

Finally back from Seattle. That was exhausting. I’ll probably just stay home tomorrow and sleep the whole day. For real I’m just going to pretend I’m not back for a few more days just because a vacation away is just what I wanted.

A business vacation isn’t a real vacation anyway. We should go to the beach!

I'm cooler than you aaaare.

Oh I’m only teasing. Rights of an older sister and all that. Don’t be a Moody Mason. 

I have received all my college rejection letters. The last one came a couple days ago. I haven’t opened it yet, but I know it’s a rejection. They send out the thick packets when you get accepted. And I have received 0 thick envelopes. 12/12 rejections. I’m gonna start Googling “what to do after high school when you’re a loser.” Maybe I’ll donate my time to experiments or something. There’s got to be a sleep study I could join. Or if they’re planning on sending a chimp to Jupiter, maybe I could volunteer instead? Jupiter seems pretty fun. 

Finnegan...

My future job was the center of conversation yet again at the Anderson family dinner tonight. Is it time to graduate yet?

Sounds like our dinners with my brother. Me, however, doesn’t really matter what I do as long as I stay our of the way. 

And just like that, the stars are finally aligned.  Nothing could ruin my mood the rest of the weekend.

I’m... glad you had a good weekend, Quinn? Even if I missed stuff. 

Me too! Aw, really? That sounds cool though - what kind of music does he play?

Any kind I want! I just plug my iPhone into his bottom and the speakers are in his head! I got him for Christmas!

Well, if you’re gonna get famous, you’re totally on my list of people to make out with. 

...well, now I have that information!

I'm cooler than you aaaare.

I don’t really care that much, but I do enjoying being awesome, so...

Hmm, you never know right? Have you been sending in applications ahead of time?

I haven’t, no. Just trying to do everything I can to look like prime student material when the time rolls around. 

It’s so bad right now. I have too many. 

I  probably do too, but I honestly wear all of them! It’s not like I’m wasting clothes. I could probably stand to give some to charity though...

Not exactly, although I like that explanation a lot better, Mads.

Oh... then you’re welcome! I wish colleges liked me that much. 

Of course you can, Madison! I’m getting it this week!

Awesome! I love puppies! I don’t think Father would let me get a real  one, but I have a statue puppy that plays music! His name is Gus. 

Aww, thanks. I’m thinking about giving them to a charity organization. I have more in the to keep pile than the to give away pile though. Is that good or bad? 

Any bit of cleaning out helps. I’m horrible at giving up my clothes too! They’re all so cute, you know?
