BIOGRAPHY 

BACKGROUND INFO Nancy and Richard had been married for only a year when Carolyn made her appearance into this world. On a cold day, for Texas, Carolyn Rebecca Lindstrom was born on October 10th, 1994. The first and only daughter to the couple, Carrie was showered with everything a baby could ever have. She was put in the best baby classes, from head start to ballet. Head start is where she met her first and only best friend. Connie Dylan. The two girls seemed to just gravitate to each other and soon they couldn't be separated for the life of them. The new friendship didn't only evolve for the two girls, but their families seemed to became friends too. Carrie's mother became Connie's mother's best friend and tried helping her deal with the death of her husband before Connie had been born. Growing up the two families seemed to work perfectly. If Carrie's parents needed something, it was Connie and her mother who helped them and vice versa. It was a routine that the families had perfected over the years. It was in her last year of middle school that Carrie started hanging out with older kids that were already in high school. They introduced her to a new way of thinking and fashion. Soon she found herself not wanting to wear designer jeans or brand name clothing. All of that seemed so trivial to her all of a sudden. Her parents saw the change and didn't welcome it. She stared wearing different clothes and by the time she started high school she was smoking cigarettes and dying her hair black and blue. Connie of course followed in her best friends footsteps and embraced the different style of living. The change seemed to suit the two girls well and despite the bad influences of older kids they seemed to adjust. But living in Texas and being different didn't always have it's perks. Soon names were being thrown Connie and Carrie's way. Freaks, retards, and lesbos. But no matter what, they had each other's back. The high school was filled with 'fake baked, big boobed, beauty queen rejects' has Carrie would so lovely call them. So the two girls would stick to themselves and find friends outside of school and hang with them instead of being sucked into the cliquiness. Of course this didn't settle well with Carrie's parents. They had hoped that she'd grow up and become a cheerleader, homecoming queen, prom queen and then perhaps a Senator or Lawyer one day. But Carrie had other plans for herself, she didn't know what they are yet. A very tense home life started for Carrie, and although her parents tried to be the best parents they could be, they kept trying to push her to hang out with the 'fake baked, big boobed, beauty queen rejects'. Carrie wasn't having it. When Connie finally got around to telling Carrie about the diagnosis of developing cancer, Carrie became Connie's back bone. When Carrie started missing school, Connie was there to be a tutor and study with her when she was bed bound. Carrie became the only thing to make Connie smile on bad days. Even though Connie was in for treatments what felt like every other day, nothing seemed to be working. And Carrie helped her through the decision of telling her mother to stop the treatments. Connie wasn't living the life she wanted, she had become sick all the time and Carrie made a promise to make Connie live her life to the fullest before her time ended. Although, Carrie was busy helping Connie put her world together, Carrie didn't realize her own world was coming down around her. Junior year started out with an argument with her mother. It was something trivial and small, but then her father got involved and the argument turned from Carrie and her mother, to her mother and her father. Quietly, Carrie just left the room, leaving the two to scream at each other. Carrie didn't realize how bad it had gotten until Connie broke the news about finding her mother in bed with her father. Carrie was furious and soon found herself in her father's face. He didn't deny or fight back and when Carrie's mother came into the house to see Carrie in his face she could only imagine. That night, Richard packed a bag and never came home. To Carrie's surprise, Nancy didn't seem that heart broken, it was Carrie whose heart was broken when Connie's mother announced that her and Connie would be moving to LA. Carrie knew it was because of her father and the fact that she didn't want the girls to hang out anymore. But there was nothing Carrie could do about it. So she watched as her best friend was taken away. Returning to school was hell, the two girls had always been each other's back bones and now with Connie gone, Carrie turned into a target. Those 'fake baked, big boobed, beauty queen rejects' got the upper hand and out numbered Carrie. The more Carrie seemed to fight back the worst it got. Until one day when Carrie couldn't take it anymore. The captain of the Cheerleading squad was over heard by Carrie talking about how she wished that Connie would just die already. And how she was glad that Connie had gotten cancer. That just set Carrie off. She jumped the girl and couldn't stop herself before breaking the girl's nose, giving her a black eye and causing major bruising on the face. The last thing Carrie really remembers is being pulled off of the girl, kicking and screaming and calling the girl names. After that, Carrie was expelled from school. Because of her violent behavior it became hard to enroll Carrie into any public schools. No one cared about the situation, but Carrie didn't regret any of it. It only took her a few months to save enough money and take off to LA to find Connie. Carrie ended up taking the car her parents gave her for her 16th birthday and stealing her father's credit card to drive cross country to the address that Connie had given her, intent to surprise her best friend with her presence. The only downfall, Carrie hasn't really figured out the whole living situation. And the fact that her and Lauren can't be in the same room together without killing each other causes a slight problem with staying with Connie. So instead of giving Connie a pity party, Carrie plans on not telling Connie about her lack of plans. Living in her car seems like the best choice for the meantime. Or so she thought at the time, but once she reached LA she soon realized that living in her car wasn't the greatest plan she could have thought up of. She had lasted only a couple of days before she found herself being taken in by Jayde. A woman she had met on an online forum that Connie had gotten her to join. She had seen a few pictures that Connie had posted and had offered her a job, along with a place to live. Being a little stand offish and stubborn, Carrie refused to live with the small, dysfunctional family. But it didn't take long for her to be talked into it by Jayde's boyfriend, Micah. Still skeptic of living with complete strangers, she kept to herself mostly and formed a small bond with Jayde who was currently pregnant. Carrie would have never admitted it out loud but a small crush formed on the older woman and she was finding it hard that saying no to her was nearly impossible. Things were going great, Carrie had a job, a place to live and was even starting to trust her new found friends. Connie was doing good in school and all the things that Carrie was keeping from her best friend didn't seem to matter anymore. She still hadn't told the girl about why she came to LA and the fact that she was wanted in Texas for stealing her father's credit card. That thought alone hadn't crossed her mind until she was picked up one day by the police. Carrie had formed a rather liking to drugs, weed and pills more or less. And her job of being a photographer for the local radio station, kept her in close contact with all sorts of people who had the right things. After leaving a popular drug dealer's establishment, she was pulled over for expired plates. Thinking nothing of it until the police officer didn't come back as quickly has she would have liked. Instead another car pulled up with his lights on and both approached her car with caution. Getting Carrie into the back of the squad car was difficult and had left bruises on her arms from the police officers trying to detain her. Of course getting her out of the back seat proved even more difficult. She had kicked on of the officers in the chest, adding to her already long list of charges. After a tearful phone call to Jayde that only resulted in leaving a goodbye message on her voicemail, Carrie was placed in the back of another squad car and transported back to Texas where her father and new step mother waited for her. The reunion wasn't a pretty one since her father had been pushed into pressing charges against her for the stolen credit card by his new bride. A woman that Carrie quickly learned to hate with every ounce of her being. She was looking towards a few years in prison and being labeled as a felony for the rest of her life. Along with the drugs charges and resisting arrest and assault of an officer. Carrie was looking at a long time of being away from LA. It took her father 3 days for him to show his face at the jail was was being kept at. Him and his lawyer had entered the conference room with a plan in mind. At first Carrie wasn't willing to listen. She sat silently on the other side of the table and stared blankly at the window that was too high to see anything. He laid down the offer in front of her and waited. It was either jail time and being slapped with that label for the rest of her life or spend time in a local rehab program to get her life back in order. She was demanded to get her high school degree since she had dropped out before leaving for LA and keep away from drugs, if she took the latter, all charges would be dropped and her name would be cleared. It was a father, worried about his only daughter deal. And Carrie took it. The months she spent in the rehab facility was pure and total hell for Carrie. She hadn't heard a single thing from Connie or Jayde. And her thoughts often turned to them at night. Wondering how pissed they were that she had just up and left. She hadn't mean to throw everything in their faces and turn her back on them. They had become her family in the small time she had gotten to know them. Rehab came and went, along with the blue hair she had once sported when they brought her in. Back to her natural brown color, she was given back everything that she had came in with. Her clothes, her shoes, the change in her pocket, and the camera they had found in her car the day she had been arrested. Jayde's camera. A camera she had been given to borrow while she worked. Cursing to herself, she kept her thoughts to herself and signed the papers she need to sign. Taking her things and leaving that hell hole behind. Her father had been waiting outside for her when she got out. But instead of embracing him that he wished for her to do, spitting in his face came natural to her. She turned her back once again and with Jayde's camera as her only luggage made her way back to LA to rejoin her little family, that is if they would take her back.
