A/N: Okay, I am inspired to write a semi-sequel to Lizzie Speaks What?!
Same characters, different format. Since I just went to England, it will
take place in England. Also, it isn't a school-sponsored event, and it
takes place the summer between tenth and eleventh grade. The year is off,
but its two years after the other story, which takes place in 2002.
This, like Lizzie Speaks What? Contains things that are based on things that happened to me in real life.
Disclaimer: I do not own Lizzie McGuire.

Hey! Okay, so, you will never believe what happened today! I mean, yeah, I know I haven't written to a diary in like two years, but I figure its about time I start a new one, so here I am, two years older, and two years wiser.
Okay, so a quick update is in order for the past two years. First of all, Anna moved yet again last year to England. Umm, Kate, Miranda, Sarah, and I are still pretty close. Anna was our fifth member of our group, but since she moved away, we don't hear much from her.
Other than that, uh, oh yeah, long story, but Gordo and I broke up this past March. It was mutual-our relationship wasn't really going anywhere because we didn't really see each other. So, we got in a huge argument, and believe it or not, the break up was my idea. Gordo and I are trying really hard to be friends, but it is hard, considering our past.
Okay, fine, I will give you details. It just got weird, okay? I mean, dating a friend? I mean, I know I was so in love with him at some point, and I still am in love with him. (Although I don't think anyone would believe that) Off record, I think things just got scary, because we were pretty serious, and I guess that scared me. So, in truth, I broke up with him to figure things out, and when I do figure out what I want, I will pursue it. I think I know ultimately in my heart that I will end up with Gordo, but that is what this time is for. Gordo doesn't know all of this; he only knows that I didn't want a relationship right now. I know I upset and confused him, and I know he still likes me. We are trying very hard to be friends, but that is sometimes hard.
Um, Miranda and Brian are now history, but are still really good friends. Sarah is actually back with David, and he has matured. Kate, Ethan, and Larry are now single.
There, I think I covered the basics. I survived the first two years of high school, though! I am no longer a lower classman, and I can drive to school next year! Yeah, I know, isn't it cool? I mean, me, dizzy Lizzie, DRIVING. I mean seriously, it's a weird thought. I feel like Clarissa from Clarissa Explains it All the way I talk about driving though! Although, thank goodness I don't have a best friend who comes in my room from my ladder.
Anyway, all of that isn't what inspired me to start a new diary. Actually, e-mail from Anna inspired me. Yeah, she sent Me, Miranda, Kate, Sarah, Gordo, David, and Brian e-mail inviting us to stay with her for a week or two during the summer. She sent it a few days ago, and our parents have contacted each other and Anna's parents, and it looks like all of us can go. We are going in mid-July. The only person who thinks she might not be able to go is Kate, because of some familial obligations. Yeah, so instead of the Extraordinary Eight, it's going to be the Magnificent Seven exploring England for what it is. She doesn't live in London; actually she lives about an hour away in Hampshire.
Anyway, so in two months, I will be in another country again, with another stamp on my passport. I will update as soon as I know more!

4 June 2004
School is out! I can finally focus on my trip to England. This is so exciting. This will be totally cool! Anna says that her parents are pretty cool, and there won't be constant supervision or anything.
Unfortunately, Kate can't come. She has to go to Hawaii instead. Yes, she HAS to go. She talks about it as if Hawaii was the equivalent hell. I wouldn't complain if I was she, but I think I would rather go to England. Its really weird how much everything and everyone changes in the course of two years. High school is flying by fast, and it is half over. . .or half begun, I don't know.
I mean, high school seems so much less stressful than middle school. Socially, that is. I mean, I don't care nearly as much as I used to about trivial things, and everyone just seems happier because they are one step closer to getting out of school for good.
On the flipside, there are downsides. I mean, academically, there are definitely more pressures, especially now we are entering our junior year. Also, there is more peer pressure and different opportunities to drink and smoke and do stuff you never thought you would do in middle school. I mean, yes, this is adolescence, and yes, things are getting more or less complicated (depends on which day/mood I am in) but I feel a true sense of knowing who I am in high school, whereas in middle school, I never really knew who I was. I mean, I knew I was Lizzie McGuire, but my morals and my views on certain aspects of life were unknown, but now they are clearing up. I am still working in the boy department, but other than that, its all good.
Sigh. I still don't know. I think this trip will help me through the questions I have in life. Time to myself.
You see, a little known fact about Anna is that her family has a lot of money, and her house is supposedly huge. She says there will be more than enough room, because her father designed the house, and made the bedrooms larger than the average English home.
Anyway, before I go, I have to work for about four weeks for some spending cash, and also do a lot of other stuff. Anna seems like she is having a blast in England. She seems really happy. She says she has really great friends, and that when we get there, we are going have a party in our honor, and we will meet all of her friends.
Okay, well, next Monday, I start a new job at the mall. Wish me luck!
Toodles!
Lizzie

A/N: What do you think so far? R/R Oh, and don't give up on L/G in this story, because that is still open to a relationship. Anyway, tell me what you think, and I will update ASAP.
