Is This Real Life?

A 13-year-old Orange girl missing since Sunday has been found safe in an abandoned farmstand about three miles from her house.  Isabella Oleschuck, a 7th grade student at Amity Middle School, disappeared on Sunday morning and hundreds of emergency officials and volunteers had been searching for her since. After being found, she told her parents she was stressed about the Connecticut Mastery Tests being given at school, according to her father, Roman Oleschuck.  "Hearing those words that your child is safe and out of harms way, and is healthy and unharmed, that's all that matters to any parent that cares," Oleschuck said. Hidden away in what appears to be a garage in the northern part of town, with no heat, Isabella had no idea that such a big search was underway.  On Wednesday morning, someone driving the farm stand on Indian River and Prindle Hill roads thought she saw someone's head from a hole in the building. She drove by a couple times and called police at 10:46 a.m., 14 minutes before Orange police and Isabella's family were to hold a news conference to provide updates on the teen. Sure enough, it was Isabella.   Officer Jude Fedorchuck went to the stand and found a blonde girl wearing a bandana. he asked what her name was and she said "Isabella." The shed kept her from the elements as snow and rain fell over the state. Inside, it was cold, but she was bundled up in a coat and a blanket,police said. She had brought Pop-Tarts and granola bars to eat and juice to drink, but the food supply was starting to run out.

Let me get this straight just so we're all on the same page. A 13 year old girl goes missing for 3 days, you search the entire town with tons of help and nobody chirps up and asks about the old, abandoned garage? Seriously? Does anybody watch TV anymore? Doesn't matter if you're looking for the girl when she's alive or dead, the abandoned garage in town seems like one of the top 10 spots I'd check out just to be safe. I mean what do you have to lose, right? Worst case scenario is you come out of there with a corpse. Nothing a few beers can't shake off. Case closed, let's go the donut shop.  But I don't want this missing girl to come out of this thing clean either. She ran away from home because she was stressed about CMT's? Really? Listen, I get it. Those things are a motherfucker but you gotta take that test no matter what and you gotta pass it. You can't hide in a shed, munch on pop-tarts, finger yourself and think your problems will just fade away. What the fuck did she think would happen? Is she gonna walk into school and order up the chicken patty like it's a Tuesday and expect everything to be cool? That's selfish. She's drinking her juice and listening to My Jeans by Jenna Rose while her parents are having images of her rotting body and it's all over a fucking test that everybody has to take. I'd hate to see her in 4 years when she has to take the SATs.
