April 12, 1997 (one day after last entry - the tension is mounting!)
I will be glad if I get to go to Liam’s party. My mom hasn’t R.S.V.P yet. I can’t R.S.V.P because Mom wants to get the inside scoop on the party. Why can’t she just trust me? It’s not like I’m going to smoke or drink and drive at the party! I’m hardly even a teenager!
Well, it’s 7:30 in the morning and I’m writing songs in my bed. I have a band called Fad. I’ve written most of the songs so far, which doesn’t bother me a bit. You know, I think I could talk my mother into letting me go to the party. Here is my schedule for the day:
Softball 9:30-10:45
Skating 10:45-11:55
Free Skating 11:55-12:50
Ballet 1:00-2:00
Goof Off 2:00-5:30
Liam’s Party 6:00-9:00
That is a pretty full schedule for the day! Yes! I am finally on the purple pages*. It has taken me 4 years of sporadically writing to get here! Anyway I’ll talk to you in my goof off time! Bye!
*The diary has pink pages, purple pages, and blue pages. In this particular diary, I never did make it to the blue pages.
April 13, 1997 (The day after Liam’s Party)
Sorry that I didn’t write to you yesterday. The party last night was a total bust! Liam had nothing planned so we sat around for a half an hour doing nothing! The boys started throwing food (the girls did too, I guess, including me). The boys were jumping on each other.
The other girls (everyone but me) separated themselves from the party, and a couple of them were upset about that. Then finally we all sat down and played Truth or Dare. We went around the room and when it got to Julian, his question was “Would you ever go out with Eli?” and he said, “No.” I was crushed. I’ve never really had hurt feelings before, but last time really had me going!
Mostly, Devin and I hung out and talked about how boring it was and how Colleen wasn’t there. But worst of all, last night I realized that I would have to find a new crush.
Kate F and Julian were fooling around and dancing. Julian really had no consideration for my feelings at all. It really hurt me to see them so together.
I guess what I wanted to happen was to have me be Kate.
I hope today will be a better day than yesterday!
