^yep
that whole last part of the book can be hard to read sometimes

two recovering drug addicts get married? eecks. people deserve second chances but i doubt that was the best thing for her. on her wedding day she looked very happy though.

^Are you forgetting that he too married a drug addict? It wasn't just her...


I don't know how it could necessarily be bad though...they'd both understand the problems that come along with overcoming addiction; I'm not exactly sure why they even got married, I remember reading in "Edie: American Girl" that she kept pressuring Micheal Post to sleep with her even though he wanted to stay a virgin until he was 20 or something like that... and on the last night of her life she told him she was thinking about leaving him & how on the same night she made plans to meet some man the next day (I can't remember his name at the moment) and that she kept saying "Well, I need to ****" to work out her nerves or something like that...and that he had to tell her to go sleep with someone else before she met up with him.

Are you sure he was a recovering addict? I thought he was just mentally unstable. I don't have my book so i can't look it up.

Yeah, they both look SO happy! But the thing with Edie is... it's hard to know when she really was happy.

I'm almost positive. I remember him saying something like "I went to -name of the hospital- to kick my habit & I was laying in my room and she just walked in......"

well, imo, i think anyone with a drug problem that bad has to have some unlying issues. you dont just turn to drugs for nuttin. completely my opinion though. did i read somewhere on here how she asked her dad to bring her her makeup when she was in the hospital and she started painting big black circles around her eyes. no i saw an interview with her brother/cousin....can't remember.

 

[loonaka]

Does anyone know why she cut her hair?

her uncle minturn (?) brought her the makeup after her fire (did you read edie's bio? that's where it states that)

I can't remember why she cut her hair but I know she said that (later on) she was pissed that everyone assumed it was to look like andy and that she sprayed her hair silver and blonde because she had always liked the contrast between light hair and dark eyes

Me boing bored at school today

 

[Carrme]

[TheKiwi]

Nice drawing! I love the big eyes.

 

[fairy]

yes u really did a great job with the eyes!

 

[PonyShow]

wow. thats amazing.
well, i think most people cut their hair extremely short because they're either going through a new part of their life and want new hair, or they're pregnant. haha.

 

[eli marie]

well I don't know about the last part, haha, but I know I cut my hair just for a change...and because of edie
