Dear Diary,
My calligraphy instructor is extremely impressed at how nicely my handwriting has improved over the past year. She tells me that cursive writing is the way nearly all rulers write. In our dimension, and across all others.
Tom called on me today whilst I was studying in the library. He has been quite attentive lately. I am surprised at how much I am enjoying his attentions. To be honest, I have neglected my affections for the Earth boy nearly entirely. I have not thought about him up to this date, since I can last remember.
He took me out for a picnic today. It was only in the castle gardens, but it was lovely nonetheless. He once more professed his feelings for me, which I was quite alarmed to find were never repressed. I felt regretful, once again, that they were still not requited. He took the rejection in stride, which was quite a change from how he used to react.
