Fights and Fireworks
4th November
Dear Nosey Parker ,
Awkward conversations with my mother: 1.
Magenta dresses cluttering up the wardrobe: 5( Mental note: if you want to get something out of your room, don't give it to a roomate).
Name of rat: Quentin.
New words I have learned from watching Beatrice and Mandy converse: 53.
New words I have learned from watching Beatrice and Mandy convers that I could use in polite conversation: 2.
Times I have heard the expression 'PMS' in the time I have been living in the dorms : 43(I still have no idea what it means. Karen thinks it means 'Pass me sweets' because every time someone says it, they get a bar of chocolate from someone.)
12pm
Pedro has asked me to go to a firework display with him in Old Bullworth tomorrow. I've agreed. For some reason , he's now wandering the school with a stange smile on his face. I hope he's not coming down with something.
12.12pm
Sheldon has just asked if Miss Danvers likes fireworks. Save Crabblesnitch, I'm not sure she likes anything.
5th November
Dear Nosey Parker,
4pm
Getting ready for firework display. Have used some of Mandy's spot cream. What she doesn't know, she can't hurt me for.
9pm
Just got back from the firework display. For some reason, Pedro kept grabbing my hand. Unfortunately, I was holding a sparkler at one of those times, so Nurse McRae has just finished bandaging him up.
9th November
Dear Nosey Parker,
8am
Beatrice looks really miserable. Apparently, if she doesn't get her notes back from Mandy then she'll be working in a book shop by the time she's thirty because all she'll have is a master's degree from a liberal arts college!
12pm
So glad to be out of Gym- all you can smell in the girl's changing room is stink bombs and vomit. I'd best go tell Mandy she's left her locker open .
4pm
Just got back to the dorm. Beatrice is acting strangely- she's just humming, smiling and scribbling down her chemistry notes. When I looked over her shoulder, I noticed the words "Beatrice and Jimmy" in the corner of the page, surrounded by a heart. Is no woman safe from that boy?
Mandy, on the other hand, looked ill when I saw her to let her know about her locker. I hope she's ok.
10th November
Dear Nosey Parker,
Phoned Mum. Asked why she didn't tell me what the tampons were for . She said she thought I'd figure it out on my own. How stupid can a person be? Would she let me drive the car without lessons because I'd pick it up eventually? I think not!

Dear Nosey Parker,
5pm
Beatrice is in a frighteningly good mood. She is also using tremendous amounts of spot treatments. I have a feeling Hopkins is at the bottom of this.
13th November
Dear Nosey Parker,
3.14pm
Just saw Jimmy kissing Eunice. I'm off to go scrub my eyes with some wire wool.
15th November
Money spent gambling: $5 Money won gambling: $10 Money lost gambling: $5 Note on gambling: Only gamble with Pedro - the other first years are good at it.
10am
Melody has informed me that there is a fight in the Hole today in a few hours. I will not attend as fighting is primitive and uncivilised.
3pm
At the Hole. Pedro bet me $10 that Hopkins would get knocked within 2 minutes. I bet Pedro $3 he wouldn't get knocked out within 5 minutes, but he wouldn't win (seemed a safe bet - have you seen Russell? He looks like a bald gorilla on steroids!). Sheldon bet me $5 that Hopkins would win. Ha!
3.02pm
I am the proud winner of $10!
3.15pm
Have just lost $5 to Sheldon. I don't want to talk about it .
3.17pm
Hopkins seems very hurt that Gary has turned on him. You'd think the scar would be a clue.
3.18pm
Hopkins has stated that he said nothing about Russell's mother. What was he meant to have said?
3.19pm
Asked Melody what Hopkins said about Russell's mother . She says it had something to do with barnyard animals ... I suddenly don't want to know.
3.20pm
Pedro has stated he wants to learn how to box. Realised he was serious just before I burst out laughing. I think I ought to get some first aid books from the library.
16th November
Dear Nosey Parker,
11pm
Me and Sheldon have just yanked Pedro out of a bin. He may need the boxing lessons. Karen tells me that the boys learn wrestling in 4th year , which is a mystery to me. Why can't they learn this in first year when they damn well need it ?
