Many people do not seem to grasp the one, basic, all-encompassing fact of life. That fact is very simple: Life is not fair. No matter how you try to make it so, it will just never happen. Some people find gobs of cash laying about – or win the lottery. Life isn't fair. Some people miss all the red lights. Life isn't fair. Some people become movie stars with no appreciable talent whatsoever. Life isn't fair.
Some high school students score a prom date with Miss Universe Australia.
At his formal end of year dance sixteen-year old Avramides will be walking in with the undisputed belle of the ball on his arm — Miss Universe Australia 2006, Erin McNaught.
The ambitious young Trinity Grammar student initially invited Australia's 2004 Miss Universe winner Jennifer Hawkins, but she said she couldn't make it because she had filming commitments.
Hearing of his plight, Australia's Daily Telegraph helped get him the date, Avramides said.
The paper reported Wednesday he was "totally stoked" that the beauty had agreed to partner him.
"She's cute," he said of 24-year-old McNaught, nicknamed McNaughty for appearing in a topless photo shoot.
"Dad's pretty happy too," Avramides said, adding that his father insisted on driving them to the ball. (Ed note: $5 says Dad tries to ditch the kid!)
Life REALLY, REALLY isn't fair. Not one bit. Gee, I hope my wife doesn't read this.
That would really be unfair.
