Princess' Diaries

You will not even believe what just happened. I was putting my Algebra book away in my locker . . . 

Friday, G & T

Okay, so I don’t know who Lilly Moscovitz thinks she is. First she stops talking to me.

Friday Night

Abbreviated lesson with Grandmère today because of my spending the night at Tina’s.

Saturday, October 18

When I got home, the first thing I did was check to make sure Josh hadn’t called to cancel.

More Saturday

Well, I’m sitting here in my new dress, my new shoes, my new nails, and my new panty hose . . . 

Saturday Night,

Ladies’ Room, Tavern on the Green

Okay, so I lied. I brought this book anyway. I made Lars carry it.

Later Saturday Night,

Girls’ Room, Albert Einstein High School

Why?

Why??

Sunday, October 19

I just woke up from the strangest dream.In my dream, Lilly and I weren’t fighting anymore . . . 

Sunday Night

Sometimes it seems like all I ever do is lie.

My mom thinks I’m repressing my feelings about this. I say to her, "No, Mom, I’m not. I think it’s really neat. As long as you’re happy, I’m happy."

Mom says, "I don’t think you’re being honest with me."

Then she hands me this book. She tells me she wants me to write down my feelings in this book, since, she says, I obviously don’t feel I can talk about them with her.

She wants me to write down my feelings? Okay, I’ll write down my feelings:

I CAN’T BELIEVE SHE’S DOING THIS TO ME!

Like everybody doesn’talready think I’m a freak. I’m practically the biggest freak in the entire school. I mean, let’s face it: I’m five foot nine, flat-chested, and a freshman. How muchmore of a freak could I be?

If people at school find out about this, I’m dead. That’s it. Dead.

Oh, God, if you really do exist, please don’t let them find out about this.

There are four million people in Manhattan, right? That makes about two million of them guys. So out of TWO MILLION guys, she has to go out with Mr. Gianini. She can’t go out with some guy I don’t know. She can’t go out with some guy she met at D’Agostinos or wherever. Oh, no.

She has to go out with my Algebra teacher.

Thanks, Mom. Thanks a whole lot.

Lilly’s like, "Mr. Gianini’s cool."

Yeah, right. He’s cool if you’re Lilly Moscovitz. He’s cool if you’re good at Algebra, like Lilly Moscovitz. He’s not so cool if you’re flunking Algebra, like me.
