Periods Three and Four
World Civ: Easy. I mean, Grandmère has told me enough stories about post–World War II Europe for me to pass any test. I probably know more about it than the teacher. And PE? How can you give a final in PE? We already had the Presidential Fitness Test (I did okay on everything but the V-sit reach).

Periods Five, Six, and Seven
Gifted and Talented? No exam there. They don’t give finals in classes that are basically study hall. That will be a snap. I have French sixth period. I do okay in oral, not so great in written. Fortunately Tina’s in the same class. Maybe we can study together.
But I have Bio seventh period. That won’t be so easy. The only reason I’m not flunking Bio is because of Kenny. He slips me most of the answers.
And if I break up with him, that will be the end of that.

Nondenominational Winter Carnival and Dance
The Winter Carnival should be fun. All the different school clubs and groups are going to have booths, with traditional winter fare, like hot cider. This will be followed in the evening by the dance I am supposed to go to with Kenny. If he ever asks me to it, I mean.
Unless, of course, I do the right thing and break up with him.
In which case, I won’t be able to go at all, because you can’t go without a date.
I wish Sebastiano would just hurry up and off me already.
Monday, December 8, Algebra
WHY???? WHY can’t I ever remember my Algebra notebook?????
FIRST—Evaluate exponents
SECOND—Multiply and divide in order, left to right
THIRD—Perform addition and subtraction in order, left to right
EXAMPLE: 2 x 3 – 15 ÷ 5 = 6 – 3 = 3
Oh, God. Lana Weinberger just tossed me a note.
What now? This can’t be good. Lana’s had it out for me forever. Don’t ask me why. I mean, I could kind of understand her resenting me for when Josh Richter asked me to the Cultural Diversity Dance instead of her. But he only asked me because of the princess thing—and they got back together right after. Besides, Lana hated me long before that.
So I open the note. Here’s what it says:
I heard what happened to you at the skating rink this weekend. Guess the BF is going to have to wait a little longer if he wants to see any tongue action, huh?
Oh, my God. Does everyone in the entire school know that Kenny and I have not yet French kissed?
It is all Kenny’s fault, of course.
What next? The cover of the Post?
I’m telling you, if our parents knew what actually goes on every day in the typical American high school, they would totally opt for homeschooling.

It’s clear what I have to do.
