While I did feel that most of the story thus far is pretty unbelievable, there was really only one thing that I was really thinking to myself- that's REALLY rare.

If you can believe it (I'm rolling my eyes at myself) I'm most surprised that her friend Lyndsay (sp?) from high school is the ONLY other freshman girl on their collegiate cheerleading squad. Granted, if you come from a competitve HS squad you will probably go on to a competitive collegiate squad. But geeze, they only took 2 freshman from the entire US and they just HAPPENED to be from the same school, nonetheless best friends? Maybe this was a minute detail but I think it's pretty rare for something like that to happen.

And, adpiucf, I was going to mention the part about their mother being a former Miss America finalist but didn't want to in case it was true!

I have to go on record as wearing pantyhose in Texas during rush during the 80s. But that's just me - I don't recall what other girls did. I was just brought up to believe you always wore hose with heels, come hell or high water.

The length and detail is still so entertaining. I am going be ticked if she stops writing. And I have to say that as much as we jump all over PNM's warning them about being PC on here I was surprised by how rude some of the replies have been. Discussing it via PM is one thing but publicly making fun is rude.

It's entertaining to say the least, but I have to say it's a bit off putting how "perfect" everything is and how groomed from birth the OP and her sister were. I'm not saying it is made up, but it's reading like a book and the ostentatious manner in which the OP writes just makes me think that she's tooting her horn a bit loud... Seriously, we get it...

Keep on with the story, though...
Took the words right out of my mouth. It's an entertaining read, though.

Well sheesh - i understand the not stalking.....but at least ihr proved that portion of her story is not false....Besides, she gave enough specific information that people COULD verify it were true, if people started to have doubts.

I'm undecided. I'm enjoying the story, far fetched as it might seem. I really hope she finishes it.

Recruitment - as you'll learn on GC (if you're not a regular posting under an alias) you have to take what some people post with a grain of salt.

The person ihr posted about does have twins. A twin boy and girl. She's rather famous so her info is well-known.

ooooh.

eh, I never pay attention to beauty pagents. Not my cup of tea. I doubt I could even come up with a name of someone who had won anywhere ever.

Well, whatever. The story has been fun. It'd be nice if it were real, but also a little sickening to us "normal" folks.

if she doesnt reply we'll never know what "that thing" was.

I'm not sure anyone's publicly making fun so much as completely disbelieving. If this is really and truly someone's real story, the similarities to the Sweet Valley twins are more amazing than anything, but I also don't like what I perceive as rudeness from the poster. She made it clear she's been on GC for years, so she knows how the board is.

Regardless, this is posting someone's mother's name (if it's true) not just checking on the story itself. I'm touchy about it maybe, but just because you can google something, doesn't mean you should always post the results.

ETA: It didn't help that it came from a one poster.
