Second of Spring

Here I am, writing in this all-too-hideous diary once again. I would've liked it better had it been blue, but that's just me. Purple reminds me of Romana's dress, which, may I add, I don't like.

Ah, and I have to say that Jack is the most ignorant and arrogant person in the history of this valley, next to Marlin, whom I seem to speaking of a lot lately. Apparently, this newly budding farmer seems to think he's got all of the stuff down and whenever he's approached with what he's grown so far, he claims that he's, "Working on it." OF COURSE he's working on it. I mean, there's no seeds planted when I walk by (due to his persistent requests) and his cow is ailing with something called LACK OF FOOD. He never has his cow out and none of his grass is cut down to make fodder. Plus, when he walks down the road, he has this really stupid look on his face that makes you think of someone that has a really low status in the community pretending to rise to royalty. I mean, really now, he can't even raise crops when he says he can, much less become a dictator.

Come to think of it, this valley has absolutely no leader. Not even a freaking MAYOR. That's saying a lot about the direction of this place. Everyone can do whatever they want, there aren't any laws or restrictions...but it's such a peaceful place, so I doubt anyone will do something completely outlandish. However, I'm still waiting for Jack to do so. The next thing I know, he'll be marching down the street in a clown suit and a parrot beak. Don't even bother asking why. Heck, I don't even know why I just wrote that myself.

This morning I ran into Rock on my way out of the Inn and he kept trying to ask me if his clothes were decent enough for him to turn into his very own clothing line. Does he make his own clothes or something? I could've sworn I've seen an outfit just like his on one of my visitations to different cities. It isn't that unusual to run into those kinds of things. At any rate, I told him, "No." and he walked off all disappointed into the kitchen. For some reason, I'm not quite sure I'd be too surprised if he was telling me off on Ruby. How long is she going to have to baby the guy? He's independent, but as immature as they get sometimes. I mean, he doesn't even know what an apple is...Can we say "Intelligence of a dead slug"?

Lumina seems a little depressed lately. Every day when I visit the mansion that belongs to Romana (How she became so prominent I'll never know. No one ever really speaks of her history.), Lumina often comes out after playing the piano and she'll look like she's just pulled herself out of a midlife crisis and her precious mind is still recovering. I ask her everyday what's wrong and she just says that she's going through a lot of stress because of the piano playing for her grandmother. Just this morning I told her to give it a rest and that she shouldn't let the pressure get to her in such a negative way. She just kind of nodded shyly and walked away. Lumina really is a sweet girl, but she's so quiet and never talks about her problems.

Muffy is seriously flirting with Jack now. He's only been here for two days and she's already ripping her wardrobe trying to catch fish for him and smearing her make-up picking flowers from the ground for him. It won't be long now before I point out that she's been pulling out dandelions to give to him, not actual flowers. Jack seems to be enjoying the attention, though, and I'm a bit jealous. I've been here for a while and respect for me has been lacking – actually, I can't tell if the majority respect me at all since they never socialize with me. Not them I'm extremely sociable, anyway. But back to the point. How come I don't have anyone flirting with me? I know, it isn't like me to seek romance, but all I have are a couple of close friends, but what I really want is a boyfriend...no one knows that, though, and I'd like to keep it that way. I couldn't imagine the looks on people's faces if they discovered that, "OMFG, NAMI WANTS A BOYFRIEND?" Ha ha, wouldn't that be enjoyable for the rest of the valley once my darkest secret has been revealed.

I take that back. If that desire was my "darkest secret", my soul must be pretty shallow. I might have to rethink that.

Later.
