Dear diary!

Right now it's break period, which is right after lunch. It means us students can all talk and goof around and stuff until next class. But we still kind of have to stay in the classroom though, until school lets us out. That's when he hang out outside the building and into our secret clubs and on the roof.

But I'm already happy, because I'm in Meiko's homeroom with my friends! Except for Luka... *sigh*. But that's because she's the co-teacher in Ms. Miriam's literature class. And yes, my Luka is even a teacher-in-training! Can't she just about do anything? It's amazing...

Oh, but anyway, I love the word "break"! As long as it's the lethargic resting kind of break, and not the broken or breaking king of break. Because the latter definition kind of makes me sad and stuff.

Oh, and lunch is also one of my favorite words. Except I don't really like it as much as "dinner", because "dinner" has more appetizing ring to it, in my opinion. Plus, "dinner" is starting to remind me of "Luka". And "Luka" is my all-time favorite word!

...Ah, b-but please don't tell anyone! It's a little em-bear-assing...

...Wait a second, who ARE you?! Who am I even writing to? But now that I even mention it, why do I always write everything as if some stranger is going to come by and read it?! I mean, I tell everything to my diary. But then, who the heck's my diary gonna tell this stuff TO!?

Well... if you're reading this, it means you're reading my diary, aren't you?! Whoever you are...

Aah, it's making me nervous all of a sudden! What if this mystery person is now reading every word I write? What if the words I wrote are entering this mystery person's brain right now and they're mouthing them and dragging their finger across them and everything!? Uwaah... maybe I should stop thinking about it now. After all, what's the chances of that happening anyway...?

Anyway, I miss Defoko-I mean, Uta. Come on, get over your cold already, Uta! That's her name, but I've been calling her Defoko as a nickname. It's catchy to me, but she doesn't really like it. It's "Defoko" from "default girl" (*defooruto onnanoko). People call her that since she's so plain and basically they see her as the default high school girl. I'm... I'm just not going to argue with that. She even runs to school with toast in her mouth when she's late! That's a REAL default high school girl right there! But you know what? Defoko-I mean Uta is an awesome friend! After all, I really miss her. I want to play with her more. Nyeeeh.

Ah. I guess now since I'm so bored, I'll just write down what's happening around the room now...

Len's tossing a Hello Kitty eraser back and forth across the room with Kaito while saying their annoying catchphrases. And I think that's Rin's Hello Kitty eraser they're tossing everywhere! Ugh, boys, right?

Rin and Gumi are... oh my gosh! They're doing each other's hair! They're putting stars and braids and little twintails... and Rin's giving Gumi her big yellow bow! Eep! It's so cute! Ah, sorry... I just think Rin and Gumi act kinda cute together.

Piko's in the back, as usual. He's reading a book again, it's probably about astronomy since most his books are. And SeeU's next to him, drawing (it's cats probably). SeeU's looking like she wants to talk to Piko, but Piko isn't putting the book down! I think Piko is really shy...

I think Miku and Neru are reading manga together. They keep arguing over whether shōjo manga or shōnen manga is the best. Of course Neru likes shōnen manga more since she's a tomboy. And Miku's practically addicted to shōjo manga lately. One thing I know is that it's really making her want a boyfriend. It looks like they're reading School Rumble. Well, it's something both of them can agree with! Neru probably likes it because it's funny and one of the characters is a delinquent. Miku probably likes the romance stuff in it.

Haku's on the left side of the room talking to Akaito. Haku just got her hair cut yesterday. Well of course, she didn't get it all cut off. Her mother only cut of the ends because they were beginning to look a little bit shaggy, so she barely even got a fraction of it cut. (After all, her hair is super long. And what do you know, it's still super long.)

She didn't even get that much cut, yet Haku still won't stop talking all sappy about how "liberated" she's feeling with "shorter hair". She keeps saying that her long hair was a symbol of her sadness and her lonely days and now it's gone because she let it all go. In fact, she's talking to Akaito right next to me and she's saying it again right now. Gee Haku, we kind of get it, you know.

Whoops, I accidentally just sounded a little bit like Len... s-sorry I guess!

You see, Len's always picking on Haku. Not exactly in a mean way though. I even think he could be flirting with her, heh! He likes watching Haku's shy reactions when he calls her a crybaby, or a marshmallow, or a little floof. He even keeps track of how many times Haku cries and then he uses the numbers to tease her! So actually, it's a little bit mean.

Sometimes I want to bite Len's head off for it, but I have to admit Haku is kind of cute when she's acting all sad. That's just because she doesn't know how great she is. Oh, and she kind of reminds me of a little kitten. She's all shy and fluffy like a little kitten. Haku also likes kittens a lot, she loves petting and taking care of animals like they're her babies. She's just really sweet.

But that's also probably why Len teases her in the first place, because he likes Haku! At least as a friend. I'm not surprised, Haku is a wonderful person. Even though she can be a little strange. (HEY, everyone says I'M a little strange, too!)

I also feel happy for Haku because she found friends this year! Miku, and Neru, and Akaito, me, Rin, even Len! And she keeps saying how wonderful it feels and how we all changed her life... it makes me feel so touched...

Wait, I'm getting off track! This entry was supposed to be all about why Haku's sudden haircut is UNCANNY. *dun dun dun*

...and do you know why it's uncanny!? Because of the alfredo I had last night!

What if Luka was actually cooking Haku's HAIR!? Remember when it said it reminded me of alfredo? I think I was eating Haku's hair- I mean, the alfredo, right after Haku got it cut, in which she donated it to Luka's pan, and added shrimp to it and had Luka cook it for dinner!

And not only that, I had a weird dream last night about Haku! It was a little scary. I dreamed that me, Luka and her were at an Italian restaurant together, and all three of us were about to order my favorite alfredo! And then... then the waiter said there was NO MORE ALFREDO when I tried to order! It was devastating!

And then it got even scarier! The water GRABBED Haku, took out a sharp knife, and dragged her into the kitchen by her ponytail while she kicked and screamed! Luka and I became terrified and jumped to Haku's rescue! We dashed right to the kitchen, and Luka yelled a heroic yell! She said "what do you think you're DOING to her, you bastard!?"

Then Luka pulled out a huge tuna out of her pocket, jumped to the ceiling, and hit the knife-wielding waiter right in his face! We freed Haku from his grasp, and his nose began to bleed red marinara sauce! But then, right before the best part (the part where I was going to transform into a chimera and use my dangerous drill hair), the waiter began to explain.

He pointed to Haku and said "Wait... no. I was only going to use this girl's hair as your dish. I-I noticed it was... made of alfredo. I was just going to use the knife to cut some off and prepare it for you."

But then I woke up. Why are dreams like this? It seems you always wake up right when things are getting really weird or really exciting.

Oh well. It seems like break time is almost over. Good, because this diary was the only thing I had to entertain me.

Well, I'll be back with more tomorrow!

P.S. Len accidentally just tossed the eraser into my face! Argh, he's gonna get it one day!
