When she isn’t depressed about her situation Leslie is an easy going person. She’s ambitious, hard
working, and can party with the best of them. But when things aren’t going right, Leslie can be cynical,

sass and she loves to party and drink…a LOT. Holly currently lives at home with her parents. Instead
of joining the work force after graduating with Leslie and Camilla, she stayed in school for several
years and has earned enough degrees (and debt) to start her own university. To shut her parents up,
Holly takes up teaching but isn’t taking to it very well. Holly says she wants to move out from under her
parents but her actions say otherwise – LEAD (3 days)
