Hey there you sweet green bean!
It's been an Oz-Century but I've finally written back to you. We're almost at the start of school term it's been that long between letters. I've been a bit distracted because:
Sugarcube threw me when I rode her and I broke my arm.
Momsie and Popsicle have been out of town attending the college debutant balls as board members on the high council
Ama Clutch passed away.
I guess we should start with the worst news first hey? Ama Clutch, as you last heard, was put into the hospital for tests. From there she went almost immediately into a mental health system but it went downhill pretty Oz darn fast from there. She started talking to the furniture and ignoring the nurses as if she had it all backwards. Then finally she screamed 'WHERE'S MY ORANGE JUICE' to the IV machine and collapsed into a coma. From there her body just gave out and…Oz Elphie, the funeral was last Thursday. Momsie and Popsicle came back from their holiday in the West to go to the funeral. I cried all day and night for days before finally remembering you and thinking talking about it with you might make me feel a bit better. It really does Elphie. I feel better confiding these thoughts to you :)
As I mentioned earlier, my Momsie and Popsicle were in the West. As members of the High Council of the College of the Arts, they attend the young Bells debutant balls. They take great pride in their roles in the balls so they were pleased to be attending again this year. This meant I was all alone in this big house for weeks…it was so much fun Elphie! I did all those things you're not allowed to do when the 'rents' are in the house. Shhh don't tell anyone.
Of course I broke my arm though and so reading became my biggest friend the last couple of weeks. It really REALLY hurt Elphie but I barely cried. Except when the doctor touched it. Oh and when he gave me a tetanus shot. Oh and when they put the X-Ray machine on my arm because I was scared and didn't know what it would do. Ooh of course when he actually bandaged it. And when I actually fell off Sugarcube. But that was it!
Bah Elphie! You only just convinced me to try reading and you're already trying to get me to do HOMEWORK! On hol's Elphie! I'll do it when I get there…Okay? Promise.
I tried your dream diary thingy and it really helped. I thought about MunchkinZone, that awesome, Oztastic funpark they have in Munchkin land and I dreamed about that more that Ama Clutch's funeral. But it's still hard to sleep. It's nice to know you'd be here helping me sleep though…I imagine that the most before I sleep.
I hope I don't have to move Elphie, I want to stay with you! Oh but I've already received word from Horrible Morrible that my room will now be in the 12 bedroom dorm in the main building. Not only will I be moving out of our room Elphie, but I'm moving out of our building! I'm so sad. I wish I could be with you. Momsie and Popsicle are fighting but I'm scared they're not going to win. Horrible Morrible can be evil at times.
OOOOOH I asked Momsie and she said she'd LOVE to meet you. And as for your green envy my darling Elphie…they took it as a surprise but are thrilled to meet you anyway. You're one of a kind :)
Love you Elphie!
Till we talk again
Toodle-oo

P.s. What was wrong with my Prince was that he wasn't all I imagined. Instead of feeling tingles and a mad beating of my heart I was bored. I wanted a boy with gorgeous black hair and dark chocolate eyes. My heart beats faster talking to you then reading about my 'prince'. How disappointing huh? Oh well. Who's your perfect prince? Xxxxx 3
