Hi, I'm Lauren, and I love my glamorous lifestyle with great gifts, clothes and holidays! I just wish my parents spent more time at home - I'm fed up being lonely. My five great new friends think my life is fantastic, so I can't go to them with my problems. Perhaps an unlikely new best friend is just what I need...
