Monday, 12th February Early morning, The Loft

WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO??? Ok, so we need to go soon, and we're going to pick up Lilly and her brother, Michael. Only the most gorgeous boy in the entire universe and what happens? My hair frizzes up. I have a huge spot on my nose. There is cat hair all over my uniform. My combat boot lace has snapped. My nail, (which isn't't even real) is broken and has now gone all jagged and gross.

Great.

Why does this kind of stuff always happen to me? I've put concealer on, but the spot is still threatening to erupt, my hair looks like it's about to snap the hairband and I have no time to file the nail. Why am I even bothering? It's not like Michael will even notice what I look like. I'm just his sister's best friend. Still I can't help feeling that maybe one day....... No. That's it. He's way older too, there is no way he's going to be interested in a freshman like me. So I'm not going to try. Oh God, we've got to go now. There's not even time to try. Maybe I should take some sellotape in the limo, I could try and take the cat hair off on the way there.... Later on Monday, Toilets I wished I'd tried a little harder this morning. So, we were on our way and I was frantically taking off the ginger cat hairs when we were suddenly there. And Michael got in. I was just sitting there looking like a human frizzball with a load of cat hair covered sellotape in my hand, when the guy I've had a crush on for ages gets in my limo. Plus, Lily didn't get in behind him. So I was all "Where's Lily?" And she was ill! Lily was ill! I was going to spend a whole limo ride alone with Michael. Then I panicked. I started drumming my nails nervously as the limo moved on. Then i remembered one was broken so I quickly hid them. I looked over at Michael and he just smiled at me. It was such a nice smile, that I practically melted and I smiled back. I even forgot and the spot on my nose would probably be made even bigger by me smiling. Then we talked and it was so weird. Somehow we just managed to find stuff to say. I've only ever been in a car with a guy before and that was with Josh Richter and then we had nothing to say, but with Michael it was different. We were actually having a good time. See, this is one of the reasons why Michael is my soul mate. I mean, he's so easy to talk to and he makes me laugh. And he laughs at my jokes too, instead of looking at me like I'm some moron with a severely warped sense of humour.

When we got to school, he was like, "See you in G and T, Mia." It was only when he got out that I realised how close we'd been sitting. All that must mean something, right? I mean, we can talk Ok, he sat real close and he wasn't desperate to get out the car at the end. From now on I'm going to get up earlier, I have to look my best. I'll begin a whole new skin regime. I'll wash my hai - Oh, there's the bell. Gotta go.
