"Men always say that as the defining compliment, don’t they? She’s a cool girl. Being the Cool Girl means I am a hot, brilliant, funny woman who adores football, poker, dirty jokes, and burping, who plays video games, drinks cheap beer, loves threesomes and anal sex, and jams hot dogs and hamburgers into her mouth like she’s hosting the world’s biggest culinary gang bang while somehow maintaining a size 2, because Cool Girls are above all hot. Hot and understanding. Cool Girls never get angry; they only smile in a chagrined, loving manner and let their men do whatever they want. Go ahead, shit on me, I don’t mind, I’m the Cool Girl." olivia isla santi -- twenty-four -- director .................... .................... "I've flown under the radar my whole life, like a skinny, stray cat. We got into trouble, more trouble than it was worth, but what were we supposed to do when our parents weren't home and it was still fucking raining? It was just the two of us back then, our time mostly comprised of each other and a small peppering of Jane. Jane's great, honestly. I don't know why she wouldn't just go out with him. Maybe she's more complicated than I am, maybe she's not. But I don't think she ever had a good reason for denying him so long. Ollie's a good guy, but maybe other people find him annoying. But yeah, the two of us. I hate Orla's guts but I've never said anything. I played nice with Veronica because she was whatever and we all knew that wouldn't last even though we told him it would. I don't think he was particularly upset over their breakup, and it seems so irrelevant now because we were children and Jane is gone and shit actually hit the fan long after Veronica was even a thought. Seventeen seems so significant. But it's not. I'm talking in circles. This isn't about Veronica, or Jane. It's about us. He's my best friend? What more can I say? I've had a few boyfriends, lived with one for a while last year. Lost my virginity to one of Ollie's friends in the back of his car one night when we were all trying to get into a bar underage. I think Jane was there, but then again I'm not sure. She never liked to hang out with us. We were loud, obnoxious (and to be fair we still are), and picky. She was always so fucking poised and cool and I get why he couldn't put her down once he had picked her up. She was nicer than me too, I remember that about her. Our world is small. I like to keep it that way. .................... holly -- alexis ren -- resident
