When I turned 18 I couldn't wait to be 21 so I went out and got an ID from GUAM. Yeah--isn't that pathetic? It worked a lot and not once did I get turned down nor did it ever get confiscated.

A year later we heard that a lot of clubs and bars were cracking down on GUAM ids because I guess businesses knew that fake GUAM ids were easy to make as those IDs didn't have a hologram at that time (they do now).

But then my cousin introduced me to her friend, and I swear she could've been my twin. She had black hair and I had my hair highlighted, but other than that we look so much alike. She even offered to go down to the DMV and get a duplicate license for me so I could use it. So, for two years I was Candace Fujimoto.

Looking back I can't believe I went through all of that just to pay a reduced cover so I could wear a 21+ wristband.
