Okay, I am going to get ready soon. I'm going to make a list of guesses on which my admirer is because I want to see if I am right. So I will begin with Christopher, James, This weird kid named Arnold, who keeps staring at me in potions, and Snape. If it is any of the last three I will want to die, slowly and painfully.
Aubrey, who is an angel of mercy, showed me many ways to do my new hair-do, and my favorite is the way she did it: like it is signifying the new me. I am now the new Lily Evans, and the world better get out of my way. Well, I am not feeling that cocky. Now if it is Christopher, I will need a shrinking potion for my head. I will get as big headed as nothing else before! Professor Dumbledore may have something to do with this. I do not know. I was talking to Sandra, I just told her about my admirer, and she said that if I don't like him she would gladly take him off my hands. I have been getting a bit closer to Sandra lately. She is warming up to the idea of being more social.
Sandra did the most amazing thing. We were doing our homework in the common room, and she walked right up to James and asked him if he wouldn't mind going to the ball.
"Aren't you doing things a bit backwards?" he asked, this made me grin when she seemed to realize what she did. But she recovered from this and put her head up high and looked him in the eye, "Well do you?" she asked.
Now I wanted to take a photograph or something because the look on James' face was hilarious. It screwed up and he tilted his head to the side, "Yeah, maybe. I'll get back to you." He turned, shook his head, and walked off as Sandra came back to the table shaking. Before she began her homework again she whispered, "Did I really do that?"
It was very funny. Well, James has not gotten back to her yet, but he keeps looking at her funny. I bet he'll get back any day now. I can't decide what to wear when I meet my admirer, but I know I want to look stunning. Maybe I'll wear that dress Kathleen outgrew. I am a size smaller than her anyway. I am going to ask. But not right away. I want to tell you the latest about Kathleen's quest for Sirius.
She will not give up. Only now she is going from a new angle, seeing as she has Jonathon to deal with. So instead of endless flirting with Sirius, it is endless kissing in public for her. She will randomly bend down and kiss the life out of poor Jon, but he loves it. Sirius is always busy off in his corner with Aubrey, which is not going well with Kathleen at all.
"It's like she's stealing my boyfriend!" said Kathleen one night while doing homework. "She has no right to steal him like that! He was on my list!" I rolled my eyes and she kept going. "Aubrey is so dead. I am going to get her for this."
"Right," I said, "you do that with Jon around. 'You! Stop corning in on my boyfriend you…'"
"That's enough," interrupted Sandra, knowing what was about to escape my lips. "Seriously Kathleen, she has dibs. He asked her not you. You can't blame it all on her, just the part where she said yes." Sandra smiled and continued doing her homework.
"And kissing him in the corridors! I mean he was on my list!" and it kept going. She was ranting the entire time I was writing an essay about the correct way to turn a mongoose into a candlestick. She annoyed me to no end.
This Ball is a sour/sweet type of thing. Sour meaning the whole "stealing my boyfriend" incident and sweet being my secret admirer finally telling me who he is! Oh my word! What if it is a girl? What if they are one of those girls who like other girls? Oh my word! And what if these letters were meant for another Lily? There is a Lily Moss in third year. What if it is for her and I am disappointed by some weird dorky boy who is thirteen years old, and who was mistakenly flattering me instead of the other "Lily Flower?" Oh no. Oh no, oh no, OH NO! I can't concentrate on anything right now! I am going to get ready. Oh no!

I decided that since I am having these worries I am not going all out with my clothes. If it is a disgusting person I won't feel nearly as idiotic, if it is someone completely awesome then I at least look okay. So instead of a pretty dress, I'm wearing a neat skirt and a nice shirt. That is it. So Soon I am going to get dressed and head down to the kitchens. No big. So I am going to tell you about how the rest of the school is.
Well it is no big secret about the huge "curse" on the school so we don't have to cover why Professor Robertson is such a horrible teacher. All new teachers are horrible. Seriously, I would rather have a student come up and teach. James, or even that boy Lupin, could teach this as well as any of our teachers could.
Why is it necessary to learn about this though? More curses to use in the halls against other students? There is this weird Slytherin. I don't remember his name, Uh, Mouthy, no, Mallboy, no, oh! Malfoy! This kid, Malfoy, is always complaining about how useless this class is and how we will never need this stuff in the "real world". Seriously, he complains a lot. Mostly in class, where the teacher can hear him, I almost feel sorry for her…almost.
I think Malfoy and Snape should be friends, but Snape seems to be alone most of the time. Mostly being weird and doing weird things. He is very disgusting. I wonder: does he EVER take a shower? His hair is all greasy and disgusting, why aren't bugs hovering around his head? Gross. I hope that James will throw a curse at him that will take care of that, but no! He decided that turning him upside down and displaying Snape's underwear for everyone to see was better. I doubt anyone ever needed to see those underpants besides Snape. James is so rude.
That is the main reason I will die if James is the admirer. But this all started with the diary, and James got me a locket. Why bother with two gifts? Oh well. It's almost 6: 30. (I write slowly) So I am going to get dressed and meet my admirer. Oh my heart is beating so fast now!

I have met him and I will tell you all about it later. I have to break up an argument that seems to have arisen between Kathleen and Aubrey while I was meeting the wonder-man. I heard part of the story so here is what I know. Kathleen whispered something in Jon's ear and walked up to Sirius. Then she kissed him (Sirius) smack dab on the lips. Aubrey jumped up and smacked Kath as hard as she could and you can imagine what they are screaming at each other!
I wish I had worn a million pound evening gown from Paris! Because my admirer was Christopher!
Lily
Da da dum! He he he! So I am leaving you off there. So review, please.
Oh, and thank you my new and wonderful beta skyhoofhearted.
