91. SERIOUS CONVERSATIONS

What an amazing day at class! Obviously Imogen was there, next to Alan, who couldn’t stop talking to him and teasing him. The guy was getting blushed and shy, and Archy and Esther were laughing about that, but of course not aloud. Anyway, in the end the teacher after 3 times warning her, kicked Imogen out, asking for her not to come back again. The unbelievable surprise is that Imogen went on the defensive and acted really rude, telling Esther to defend her, but she passed. When Esther was with her classmates at lunch, they asked her why she was friend of Imogen and to give a damn about her- “If she could…” Today it was one of Confirmation last course. Afterwards they all went to have a drink, which it’s been cool. Later Esther, Maureen and Ivy had a serious conversation about Imogen because nobody can stand her, she’s so mean, tiring, weird, and so many negative things…, but they don’t know how’s going to end. At least the rest of the night was ok, meeting lots of people and again having fun with Luke’s friends.

82. REMINDING THE SUMMER

When Imogen arrived to class and saw Alan, she totally fell in love, is not smart or anything the girl… ;-) The amazing thing is that she’s not in the same class as Esther, but she doesn’t care. Esther has even told her that she doesn’t want to play truants this course, because she’s focus on passing everything, and Imogen laughed at her. Besides, today at History class, the teacher has told her to leave, what an embarrassing moment! ‘Cause Imogen didn't want to leave, explaining that it’s her right to be there. Esther is beginning to think that she’s not going to meet anyone else. Lately she feels tied down, what a summer she’s had! So, saying all this to Wendy: 1st, Esther went to private tuitions to pass the subjects she failed last course, and there was Imogen, just like that! All the time talking, the teacher got on her nerves. 2nd, every time they were going out Imogen scared all the boys. 3rd, they met one Saturday Maureen’s boyfriend’s friends, especially one friend: Peter. He was good looking and both of them liked him, and when he had to pick one, chose Esther, and Imogen got mad for 3 weeks, so finally the couple couldn’t date anymore because he didn’t want to be in the middle. But before all this, Imogen used to leave impolite messages in her house’s answering machine, and obviously her family was freaking out. In the end with the excuse that he was going on holidays, they split up. Wendy was staggered with all this amazing information.

64. TEENAGERS

Lately Esther is having real fun at class, maybe too much, she talks to a lot of classmates, which is not that usual, compare to last year and primary school, where she couldn't have any kind of conversation but with 3 people, more or less. Today she's been joking with Hugh and Ralph, joining, of course, later Adam, unexplainable! They didn't realise how mad was the teacher 'til she expelled Esther, telling her she was on the wrong way to go the university, and that her mother was going to know about all that, not good news...”why is such a big deal?” During the break Hugh and his friend Teddy tried to cheer her up, and went together to the park to smoke. In their way back to school, to Head Teacher's room, the first time that Esther has to go there. What a big telling off from her mother, again..., this time with her sisters, and they have been also complaining “what the hell??? This is not of your business!”-thinks Esther. The next Friday she could go out at night, so everything forgotten, that's what really brings her life. As usual, she's been drinking a lot, in addition there was a party in the louts' premises, and Esther got involved with most of them. However that was not such a fun time to her.

63. NOTHING BUT JOKES

This last week has been awkward, evrybod explaining things to Esther, Stelle was disgusted for everything that happened with Franky (Esther still doesn't understand why they are together), what's more, her father found a condom in the premises, so he's forbidden her to use that place, so, the girls have to search another place to drink. At class the teacher has told her off, just like that, and finally she changed Esther of desk, at the end of the classroom. That was so unfair, it was Rud and Hugh's fault, all the time fooling around, joining Adam later, who was in the other side. Of course, all that is on her marks and folders. She went back home with Wendy, complaining about all those things, and she tries to calm Esther down, for a while, this means eating as most as possible, “ you feel so good afterwards” (chocolate doughnuts, snacks, sweets,...). When she felt better, she went home. She had an amazing dream that night: romantic and funny moments with Adam, which finished weirdly though, he had a green face!

61. STOP LECTURING

This year marks are really bad to Esther, her parents have given her a warning about that. She’s having such a crazy life lately…, and they don’t even know the half of the things she does. The truth is that she doesn’t give a damn what they think, and when she has been talking about this with Maureen, agrees with them. That’s all that Esther needed right now! It’s not like she’s in her 20s, when you’re growing up you have mistakes and learn, at least that’s what she thinks, and not to be so overprotective. At High School things are calm, today, for example, Adam and Rud have fooling around her too much, she didn’t expect it, what a funny couple! Afterwards Esther and Imogen have been talking about that and another gossips, saying to Esther to go to a party. While they were dancing, in the party disco, Esther just remembered that she’d met Maureen, what a telling off!!!Another one…

53 ENJOYING THE COURSE

Going to class today, Esther met Hugh, who just begun to tease her because of Saturday, so much make up...drunk...and that stuff. Look who’s talking, fooling around (she never liked that)but it was kind of funny and not mean. In the classroom the students have been changed of place, and Imogen is with Adam, Esther has to sit down next to Duncan, who can’t stop moving, talking, making sounds....anyway, buff!!what a tiring guy. At the end the teacher tell her off a couple of times, her??!!!?, advising her that she’s not very well known in regards to the studies and all that. The thing is, that apart from that day, in the last weeks this is usual, and the teachers decided to change the places because of her –“excuse me??you’re not serious, are you?”- Apparently her look said that she was not kidding at all. The rest of classmates have fun of that. Meanwhile Imogen is passing notes to her making weird faces, but what???! During the break all the time talking about Adam, but Esther is beginning to be kind of tired of that silly story, though Imogen insisted that they’re going to be together pretty soon, and then Wendy show up, she almost catch them! Thanks to God that Esther has begun to talk about another thing. Not knowing how happened but, suddenly they realise that Hugh had said to all the class about Esther’s fashion last Saturday, and asking her to make photos because they didn’t believe that. Jus Amazing. Later while they were having lunch, Esther has asked Stelle what happened on Saturday after the fight, with no answer. Suddenly she saw Rudd getting in the way, so Stelle annoyed, leaves, just like that. Going home, Wendy asks Esther to go together with another classmate, and that afternoon they’re going to meet to get out their chest, eating some snacks, so cool....

50. The day after the Betrayal

Well, someday had Maisie to show up at High School. The whole class was amazed because of what happened last weekend, how not!It wasn’t Imogen there, so, telling her with all the details. When Wendy arrived, on Wednesday, went forward Maisie, while she was apologizing and got away running, hahahaha, just the way she is. But Wendy felt really angry and nervous, so there, they were Esther and Co. calming her down. At Gym class somehow Esther has been talking with Adam, even though he was joking all the time, however Esther didn’t mind, and enjoyed that moment ‘til silly Rud got in the way, and Imogen later, who wanted the 2 girls to play basketball against the 2 boys. What??!Esther doesn’t like it at all!Anyway, anything to see Adam. And there she was, seemingly running and playing the game, at least she scored 1, what a face the guys had..... Esther went back home with Wendy, still disgusted, but she tried to cheer her up, saying that she could trust her for anything. They’ve had a lot of honest conversations, discussing several subjects of their personalities and that stuff. There’s no doubt that this was really cool, ‘cause Esther prejudged her for being popular, but they could have been good friends. This is the beginning of a serious friendhip.

47. Funny times at HIgh School

It seems that Esther is having more fun in this course's class, than hanging out with her friends, and see what could happen 'cause she's all the time staring at Adam, but she gets embarrased with the thing that he's Rud's friend, although they look at the girls too. Today, for example, at drawing class, Hank sit down near Esther and hasn't stopped doing silly things, asking for her all the time a pencil, a paper,....Behind them were Rud, Adam and Alvin, on the front was Hugh, who has been all the time taking Esther's tools, also Alvin asking her(setting constantly his finger on her back) . Imogen doesn't understand anything, and Rud was laughing with Adam, but that's no point to be rude with him. In the end, Esther has been telling off, just amazing to her, why her??? Thanks to God the bell rings, because they could have been thrown out. Imogen says to Esther to go to he park to talk about that weird situation, and they have met Maisie and Wendy, also playing truants, it's such a good weather! They have done a lot of stuff: talking, smoking, even attending a sèance, playing cards. They have been teasing Imogen a little, because sometimes is so easy..., but Esther has noticed that she's realised all that jokes, saying madly to Esther to go with her to her house, finally they've cleared things out.
