Dear Mom :

It's around 4:15 in the morning. I'm writing this before dad wakes up. I would usually be sleeping around this time, but since the air conditioning broke, sleeping's been kind of a pain lately. I know whining isn't a trait admired by the Witwickys, but I think I'll use this moment to do it secretly.

Sorry, but out of all the kids in my school, it looks like I'm the only one that has to get up at 4:30 in the morning, scrub toilets and clean and mop floors, while everyone else is likely at the pool, or watching the new Ghostbusters movie. I'm playing the part of a 16-year-old, but even the youngest people here are probably like 20, and haven't spoken a word to me. Lots of the kids at school have both parents as well. And finally, lots of families probably will not have a few 'final notices' in their mailbox.

It's getting to the point where I'm even missing Buster 's annoying traits. And I have at least 8 more weeks of this type of life. Unless for some reason, while fishing in this place during a day off, I hook a winning lottery ticket from the ocean, or aliens swoop down and take me away from this type of boredom. I know, mom, I know dad's doing his best. And I'll put on my best face in 15 minutes. But I have to say, in terms of summer vacations, this one flat out sucks rocks.
