You are the sunshine of my life

 Round 17: April 2028

Stephen Marlowe and Kaitlyn Brennan are 27.

Narrated by Stephen.

Kaitlyn is busier than ever with her fourth and last year of doctorate studies so we try to make the most of the little free time we actually get to spend together. One of our favourite things to do is walk to the park nearby and sit on the bench and talk.

For real

Round 16: February 2026

Kaitlyn Brennan and Stephen Marlowe are 25.

(Zach is 22.)

Narrated by Kaitlyn.

Stephen and I have been living together for a few months now and it's going really well - partly because we don't spend enough time together to fight a lot. I'm on my second year in my doctorate studies and the work load is pretty much insane. I was prepared for it and made a working schedule for myself so it's going alright. There are days when I wonder why I decided to put myself through this but I try to keep my focus on the big prize at the end.

I write sins not tragedies

Round 16: February 2025

Kaitlyn Brennan and Eve Midlock are 24.

(Stephen is 24, Zach is 21 and Lilly is 20.)

Narrated by Eve.

Our apartment building was renovated a few months ago. We didn't have to move out because they mainly did work on the common area and I just love how it is now. There's a sauna, a small gym and a pool table.

Round 15: November 2024

Stephen Marlowe is 23.

(Patrick is 77, Alexandra is 50 and Kaitlyn is 23.)

Narrated by Stephen Marlowe.

Things are going really well with Kaitlyn. We see each other more now that I live in Exmoor. I lived in Wellington for a while after graduation because I wanted to stay close to my family but in the end living in Exmoor is so much more convenient.

No cars go

Round 15: November 2023

Kaitlyn Brennan and Eve Midlock are 22.

(Anthony is 49, Jack is 40 and Stephen is 22.)

Narrated by Eve Midlock.

It still feels a bit weird to participate in all family gatherings but I do enjoy it. Just the other week we celebrated Father's Day and also dad's promotion to lieutenant.

Happy Birthday, January 2023

Brady Cooper will turn 4 this year and he's already anxious to start pre-school.

Venus doom

Round 14: Autumn 2022


Kaitlyn Brennan, Stephen Marlowe and Eve Midlock are 21 and Zach Whitfield is 18.
(Dawn is 18.)

Narrated by Zach Whitfield.

Mom and dad flipped out big time when they heard in the summer that I hadn't registered a major yet. I told them that I was going to do it anyway in the beginning of autumn semester but they seemed convinced that I was just slacking off. So I decided to prove them wrong and registered for Physics and Premedicine. I know I have to work my ass off to get into med school after graduation so I thought I'd better start already.

Times like these

Round 14: Spring 2022


Kaitlyn Brennan, Stephen Marlowe and Eve Midlock are 21 and Zach Whitfield is 18.
(Nicholas is 22.)

Narrated by Eve Midlock.

I've been talking Stephen and Kaitlyn's ears off about my so-called engagement to Nicholas. We're still engaged because I've been avoiding him as much as I can. I just don't know how to handle this.

Come as you are

Round 14: Autumn 2021


Kaitlyn Brennan, Stephen Marlowe and Eve Midlock are 20.
(Nicholas is 21.)

Narrated by Eve Midlock.

I can honestly say that I've gotten over my crush on Stephen. Now I just think that he and Kaitlyn make such a sweet couple. I think part of the reason I was so attracted to him is that he seems to be a really great boyfriend.

Diving for hearts

Round 14: Spring 2021


Stephen Marlowe, Eve Midlock and Kaitlyn Brennan are 20.

Narrated by Eve Midlock.

Last year was a real rollercoaster for me. My mom revealed information about my father just before she died so I came to Wellington looking for him. I was surprised and relieved how well Anthony took the news of a 19-year-old daughter. I've been seeing him and his family quite a lot lately.

Wake up exhausted

Round 13: Spring 2020


Stephen Marlowe is 19.
(Zach is 16.)

Narrated by Stephen Marlowe.

There's this new girl Eve who moved in to the dorm this year. She's a Sophomore like me and she may seem like a tough chick with her all piercings but it turned out she's really nice. We play chess quite often together.

Round 13: Spring 2019


Stephen Marlowe is 18.
(Patrick is 72, Vicki is 68 and Kaitlyn is 18.)

After long consideration, Stephen has chosen to major in Psychology. His other option was History but in the end he's more interested in the human mind and especially a criminal one. He wishes to become a profiler for the SCIA someday. In the mean time he enjoys spending time at the faculty building for Behavioural Sciences. He can always find someone to play chess with.

Round 13: Spring 2019


Liv Harris is 21.
(Niall is 24.)

Narrated by Liv Harris

I travel to Wellington almost every weekend and I usually stay at Niall's apartment. We had a big conversation about our relationship some time ago. I've wanted us to be exclusive for some time but I've been too chicken to ask him what he thinks. Then I finally built up the courage and said that I don't want us to see other people. He said that it's fine by him. So I guess it means that we've taken one little step toward a real commitment.
