Carmen started it all, she was the one who bought the pants at the second hand store, these pants have brought us together on our summers apart, it started about 4 years ago, when Tibby found the pants in Carmen's closet. Eric and I are going steady, so are Tibby and Brian, Lena and Paul, and Carmen and Win, for all of us its sort of weird because we're in college, Tibby goes to film school at NYU, Carmen goes to Williams, Lena goes to RISD, and I go to Brown, I personally love college, partying all night long and socializing, but I miss my sisters (well they feel like sisters to me), maybe even my brother a little bit. But this summer is going to be fun; we're going to meet back in Washington, do the whole ritual thing at Gilda's and then go our separate ways. I'm going back to soccer camp this summer, Carmen's acting as a baby sitter for her new brother, Lena's going to art school (I don't know why she's amazing already, I mean she got a scholarship to RISD) and Tibby's getting a summer job, so is Lena, but that's beside the point.
I have a weird feeling about my relationship with Eric, I don't know, in some ways I feel like I'm still in love with Billy, and in others way, I don't know what to think. Well anyway this book is not my story it is our story, meaning Lena, Carmen, Tibby, and Me.
