But the person I will never, ever forgive is myself, for getting into this situation in the first place. I totally should have known better. I should have told Sebastiano, No photos, please. Only I was so carried away, looking at myself in all those beautiful dresses, that I forgot that being a princess is more than just wearing pretty dresses: It’s being an example to a lot of people . . . people you don’t even know and may not ever even meet.

Which is why if I don’t pass this Algebra test, I am dead.

Oddly, after wading through all of this, when I got to my locker, I found something that seemed extremely out of place: a single yellow rose, sticking out of the door.

What can this mean? Can there be someone in this school who does not despise me?

Apparently so. But when I looked around, wondering who my one supporter could be, I saw only Justin Baxendale, being stalked (as usual) by a horde of worshipful girls.

I suppose my anonymous rose-leaver must be Kenny, trying to cheer me up. He will not a

dmit it, but who else could it be?

It is Reading Day today, which means we are supposed to spend the whole day—except for lunch—sitting in Homeroom, studying for our finals, which begin tomorrow. This is fine by me, since at least this way, there’s no chance I’ll run into Lana. Her homeroom is on a whole other floor.

The only problem is that Kenny’s in this class. We have to sit alphabetically, so he’s way up at the front of this row, but he keeps passing notes back to me. Notes that say things like, Keep on smilin’! and Hang in there, Sunshine!

He won’t fess up to the rose thing, though.

By the way, want to know the total number of comments made to me so far today by Michael Moscovitz? 1

And it wasn’t even really a comment. He told me in the hallway that my combat boot had come untied.

And it had.

My life is so over.

Four days until the Nondenominational Winter Dance, and still no date.

Distance formula: d – 10xrt

r = 10

t = 2

d = 10 + (10)(2)

= 10 + 20 = 30
