Pidge Parson's Slightly Dramatic Existence

[Roonil Wazlib]

Dear Diary,
I suppose I should continue about yesterday. Anyways, there I was, sitting there when Eric came out of the school. I smiled halfheartedly. "Hey."
"HI!" he said a bit too loudly. Perhaps he thought I was closer. "What are you doing here?"
"Waiting for my mom. Though at this point, I'm not sure if she even remembered me." I paused. I hope that didn't sound too pessimistic.
He walked over and stood next to me, holding out his hand. I took it and stood up, dropping it as soon as I was standing. "Thanks." I said.
He brushed it off. "What do you mean? Didn't she know you had rehearsal today?"
"Oh yeah, but sometimes it takes her a while to get here. My sister's husband is here and she's a bit busy- he's kind of demanding."
"Oh." He looked at me for a second.
"I think I'll just walk home." I said. "I only live a few miles away." I picked up my backpack and swung it around my shoulders.
"I could give you a ride!" he said. "My car's right here, and if you're close it won't be too far out of my way."
I looked at the sky. It was already getting dark, and I didn't know how long it would take me to walk. "Umm...sure!" Why do I have to be so awkward?
"Come on, my car's over there." He jerked his head in the direction of a small, rather beat up blueish car. I nodded and followed him over in silence.
The inside of his car matched the outside- small and rather beat up. I climbed into the passenger seat and he started the car. It roared to life after a few tries. He smiled apologetically. "Sorry, she's a bit reluctant to start sometimes. But, I don't have the money to get a new one, and besides, she's rather grown on me." He patted the wheel fondly. Soon, we were driving down the road- perhaps a bit slowly, and maybe a bit bumpily, but at least we were going.
"Where's your house?" I explained where it was.
Even though I only lived ten minutes away from the high school, the time seemed to go by extra fast that night. We talked the whole time, about Oz, about school, about anything really. Too soon, he was pulling into my gravel driveway. I could see my mom's truck, still parked in front of the house. She hadn't even left yet!
"Thanks, Tin Man!" I said jokingly.
"No, thank you for giving me company! See you tomorrow, Glinda!" I saw his smile flash before he pulled out of the driveway and was gone. I didn't know how much I missed spending time with that boy. Well, another practice tomorrow! Hopefully Mom remembers to pick me up- or I at least remember to charge my cell phone.

Dear Diary,
Today we finally started blocking part of the show! If you don't know, blocking is when Marilyn tells us where we're going to be when we say a line, or where to go during a scene. It was rather dull, but at least I didn't have to sing. That's always a plus, especially with my less-than-stellar voice. Oh, and we also got our scripts today- they took a while to mail, and we didn't really need them until now. I actually have a lot of lines! Me and Louisa looked through the script today during practice, while they were blocking scenes we weren't in. I'm only in the beginning and the end, so I guess I'll be doing a lot of sitting around during the show. Oh well, that just gives me more time to practice my lines! I'm actually getting to know the people here, and I quite like them. Especially Abrielle and Jadyn, they're both very sweet. When Louisa's on stage and I'm not I like to sit and chat with them. Strangely enough, I haven't been seeing much of Eric. He's always off with Wendy and sometimes Robert. I don't bother him though, because I don't know Wendy and Robert that well. Oh, they're nice enough it's just...just a clique thing I guess. Like today when I went into the auditorium for rehearsal, Wendy and Eric were standing right next to the door, flirting. She kept fake punching him and petting his hair and stuff. And giggling and awful high pitched giggle. It grates on my nerves just thinking about it. Oh, Marilyn is calling me. I'll be right back.
I'm back! As if you couldn't tell. Marilyn told me that I'd also be dancing in the Jitterbug scene, because they don't have enough people. Great, I have to learn a dance now. And I was so looking forward to going home tomorrow. I have dancing rehearsal after school tomorrow now. Wendy's laughing. I wish she would just STOP it's really annoying. Oh look, she's laughing at Eric. What's new? Shouldn't they be paying attention while they're on stage? "Wendy!" said Marilyn harshly. "Focus! You too, Eric."
They stopped, looking sheepish. As they should be.
Huck leaned over the seat in front of me and said "You should see her on opening night. Now that's scary."
I looked at him curiously. "She seems nice though."
He smiled mysteriously. "Right now, when she's not stressed."
So apparently by opening night we'll be stuck with two overly angry and stressed adults. Mrs. King will be worse by then, I'm sure. I gotta go work on my English project, I promised Eric I would have half of it done by tomorrow. We're doing it together.

Thanks Snappy :)

I'm so sorry I don't have a new entry up, I just had it all typed out and ready to post and then it got deleted. So, I'll probably have one up tonight. Thanks for being patient!

((ha ha tonight I'm such a liar sorry guys. I had auditions for a musical and stuff so i didn't have time)
Dear Diary,
Oh my gosh. I am so mad at Eric right now. Guess what? He didn't have the English project today. And he forgot it at home. With MY half.
"Hey Eric! Did you do the project?" I said.
He put on a convincing 'I'm so sorry' face and said: "I'm so sorry, I forgot it! It's not even due until tomorrow so I was going to do it tonight."
I stared at him. "How come you didn't do it over the weekend?"
"Well, Wendy was over all day on Saturday and I had to do my lab report on Sunday, but it's not even due yet. I have plenty of time." Wendy again. And those are bad excuses, he didn't even turn in his lab report in Chemistry. Stupid idiot.
I took a deep breath and managed to conceal my annoyance. "Oh, okay, that's fine." I'M AN EVEN BIGGER IDIOT. I should have told him off then and there but I was too cowardly! And to top it all off, I have to dance with the idiot during the Jitterbug scene. Marilyn decided that I would play a jitterbug in that scene as well as Glinda, so I have to learn a dance. Of course it's a partner dance and I have to do it with Eric, of all people. I mean, he's a great friend and all but he never does his work.
Oh, and you know how Xavier broke up with Lily? Well, she's trying to get him back now so whenever I see Xavier, Lily's hovering a few feet away, glaring at me. Will she ever get that I didn't break them up? Really, do I seem like that type of person?
On a happier note, Mrs. Reinhold started to make the costumes for the show! She measured us a few weeks back, and today she showed me my half finished Glinda dress. It's completely gorgeous! It doesn't have sleeves yet (or an actual top) but the skirt is covered with glitter and all poofy, like Cinderella's dress. Except pink! And also, the set builders are starting to install the flying machine for us. Yes, the school actually managed to pull together some money so they could rent a flying machine! There's even a little bubble platform that I get to stand on. I can't wait!

:) Sorry I haven't updated, it's finals week and I've been busy. Hopefully I'll be able to get back to a more regular schedule soon. However, over the summer I won't have constant access to a laptop like I do now so I won't update as much but don't worry, I'll still try to write at least once a week. Thanks!

[Roonil Wazlib]

I'm so sorry I haven't updated yet! I totally meant to write some more this week but my laptop Internet isn't working. I'm using my iPod so it's a pain to type on here. Hopefully the laptop will be working soon. Thanks for sticking by!
