LIFE B4 TEXT

Child roommate

My cousin and I would share a room. Her side was already decorated. She had pink and orange and cream and blue pieces of cloth on the wall with magazine pinups on top of those. On the wall:

Jonathan Taylor Thomas x2 Alicia Silverstone Devon Sawa x3 Clueless (TV show) x2 Rider Strong Nate Richert Spice Girls First Wives Club "Somebody" Dreyfus from Seinfeld

There are dolls and horses and a few trophies. I only brought some picture postcards to put up. They're my most non-offensive decorative pieces, yet they say enough to keep me comfortable in my own room. The postcards:

Jack Kerouac & Neal Cassady Chief Joseph Audrey Hepburn Rosie the Rivetor Bob Marley Fred Rogers - actually not a postcard but looks sort of like one Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

So there's a bit of a contrast, but it's to be expected. She's 10. I'm 23.
