I think Andy Deak likes me. He corrected a small movement that we all did the same in "June". I was doing the same as Leslie and Lauren, so why did he see only me? He also smiled, and spoke of last year when I showed him a rubber frog. I made eye contact with him 2 times in the graduation scene.
Preview night is Weds. and we still need to pull it together.
Andy didn't talk to Lauren once.
AUGUST 2nd 1994
Over the weekend we went to PA for our 2nd annual Kemock reunion. It was fun. Besides that it's been normal.
Maria and Holly accuse me of having JHS, Jenny Stone and I liven up our Olmsted Falls Summer Theatre rehearsals by playing in the water. We're doing OFST in the high school instead of the park (yeah!). And Bye Bye Birdie is the usual. On Fri at rehearsal, Dan Burke and I found something we have in common - the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Once in awhile he passes me when I'm leaving he'll say bye. Never to Holly. But I don't care.
SCHOOL GOALS:
1 Be mature
2 Make friends with Jason and Andy
3 Get the part of Marian
4 To be taken seriously
AUGUST 2nd 2003
I had laryngitis all weekend and I had to lip sync. I don't know how Britney does it - I hated it.
So on Thursday night Other Boy invited me out with him, EX-BOYFRIEND #3 and a guy named Big Ed. Of course, I went. EX-BOYFRIEND #3 was drunk and I almost got the feeling he was interested in me. But why? How much does he know about Other Boy and I? Maybe he's just being competitive. We went to Pacers in Lakewood and he and I sang "Paradise By the Dashboard Light" (smart move by me, being sick and all). EX-BOYFRIEND #3 gave me a piggyback ride to the car and Other Boy seemed a little miffed. Good news is, they're using me in their stage show, so I'm excited.
Comedy Fling just called me. Why is he doing this? Maybe he's just seeing how far he can let himself go before he feels guilty. It was good to hear his voice.

Lauren didn't even wake up. She was fine.
Yesterday we went swimming at Holly's.
Today we went swimming at Holly's, also, I got new outfits at (blech!) Value City.
Tomorrow, dress rehearsal for Carousel. Our preview nite (newspapers, reviewers, etc) is Wednesday. I don't feel ready. (I'm still shakey on the "June" dance.) Tuesday starts chaos week, when I go to cheerleading camp. I'm swamped and I love it.
28 days till school. 7 days till I have nothing to do.

Tonight I baby-sit Lauren (Uncle Sean and Aunt Laraine's daughter) from 7-12:30.

Went to Uncle Al's for pizza.
Today at Carousel, we sang with the orchestra. We have backdrops now, and another horse. Theresa Deak and I get the horses. She's my little friend now. She's 8. We also got our shirts. On "June is Bustin' Out All Over" I wore Andy's hat.

On Salute Your Shorts - Michael's back! The first episode where he first comes.
At Carousel, I saw Lauren talking to Phil and Andy. Then they all looked at me. She was probably lying to Phil saying I like him to get back at me. Billy has a death scene. While he was lying dead, there was a problem, so they waited. Then the technical director, Brady, ran up yelling, "I've always wanted to do this!" and drew a chalk outline around him. We all clapped and laughed.

On Weds, Sharon, Holly G and I went shopping for Matt, Katie and Amy's birthday. We got Katie a dream book, and Matt a Pamela Anderson poster. I got Amy some Pocahontas computer paper. Then, that night ma famille et moi went to Sandusky. We stayed overnight and on Thurs went to Cedar Point. When we came home I went out with Julie (who just got her license). We picked up a Mother Pop, put a ribbon on it and put it on Tom Kronholtz's doorstep. On Fri morning he called and thanked me for it. Then me and Sharon went swimming and planned the last aspects of Matt's surprise party at Chi-Chi's. (Katie couldn't come to it so it was only for Matt.) Turns out, Brandon brought Matt before we got there and ruined the surprise. Elicia, Julie, Sharon, Holly, Brandon, Justin, Drew and Marc were all there. (And Amy too). Matt liked his gift, Jeremy Lombardo was our busboy, and the staff brought out a cake and a sombrero for Matt. Then we all went swimming at Matt's. I think Drew likes Julie. He definitely doesn't like Elicia. I'm not so sure about me. I don't think he does. I think Julie likes him too. When we were leaving I saw Matt pull Drew aside and I caught the words "Just tell me - do you?" "Kinda" said Drew. Katie called today. She still talks about Greg!

I got a letter from Erica. They moved to Maryland. She asked me if I still like Andy. Do I? This morning I dreamt that the dog had a new chain. When I woke up, the dog's chain was broken. I also dreamed of Adam Koelher. It made me think he is kind of cute. I'm reading the 1st edition of my journal. It starts where Laurie dies. I have a normal life. I wouldn't be writing these words if it weren't for Laurie.
At Carousel, we ran Act 1. Andy wasn't there. The carousel has 2 horses, and the rest seats. Theresa Deak and I claimed the horses (we're the smallest). Their little rocking horses. Very dumb. There's a song that goes "Julie? Julie? Do you like him?" On our way out I passed the girl who played her, I said "Julie? Julie? What's your real name?" She laughed and said Jodie.

Yesterday during the same scene, Dan gave us a zerbit. But he also asked how old I was. I wonder why. I feel guilty that I'm not writing everyday. There's exactly 1 week till Bye Bye Birdie. I got the soundtrack for Music Man. I want to be the lead, Marian the Librarian, very badly, but I don't think Mr Rizer has all that much faith in me. I haven't heard from Kurt all summer. I really miss school. What a summer.

I got grounded from July 17-24 so I didn't do much. I did manage to see Chris almost every day. I ran on the track and worked out also. On the 25 he got his license. On the 26, I went to Grand Pacific Junction with my mom, grandpa and aunt. It was dull, so I walked home. On the way, I passed Sharon. She picked me up and we visited Paul and Tony. Tony's going into the army on the 29 of Aug. So me and Sharon said we'll strip for him. He also agreed to send us pictures of him in his uniform in exchange for nude pictures of us. Of course, none of this is going to happen.
On the 27, me and Chris watched the news live in the studio of Channel 5. His dad works there. Then, we were going to the drive-in, but his parents were 2 hours late, so we sat outside in the cold and his parents didn't even care. Today I don't know how much my parents will let me do. I promised Katie I'd do something with her today. We are possibly getting a new car (I'm hoping for a Geo Tracker) but I can't drive until I get another job (in addition to Chuck E. Cheese's). I got an interview at Lone Star Steakhouse. They told me everything about the job and said they'd check my references and call me, but that was last Tues. Oh well.
JULY 28th 2003
Just a thought about EX-BOYFRIEND #3 (because that's all I've been thinking about). He's the kind of guy who goes for what he wants with no looking back. Which means, if he wanted me, he'd have gone for me already. Remember, you're moving.
COMEDY FLING is visiting in about 2 weeks. I hope it all goes smoothly, and I hope when he has to leave I can handle it.

Got my character shoes today! They hurt my toes. 1 week until cheerleading camp. We got info from Ms. Dailey today.
On Salute Your Shorts - Ug's girlfriend Mona inspected the camp.
At Carousel rehearsal I didn't talk to Andy. He left early with his two sisters Theresa and Katie. Holly still can't walk very well. Lauren's mad cause I tease her about liking Andy (little does she know I'm covering up the fact that I like him). The carousel has 1 rocking horse and 7 booths. I hope they fix it. Jigger tapped my head as he raced passed. They changed my costume! No more two different colored purples! Now I have a nice blue dress, which is more like I had in mind. It laces up the back. They say I'm wearing it backwards, but the sleeves hurt when backwards. They let me wear it anyway. JR brought a newborn kitten hoping to find it a home. Theresa asked me if I liked Andy as a boyfriend. I said no. I lied. Bethany is fine.
JULY 27th 2003
I filmed another Last Call sketch. This time, Other Boy wasn't there until the last few hours, so I was free to stare at EX-BOYFRIEND #3 freely. I am very attracted to him, I almost can't stand it. There's really been nothing put out from either of us that either of us are interested in either of us. He's very confident and a little cocky, so I think if he wanted to make a move, he would. I'm set to film another skit sometime soon, and might even be in the stage show. I'll be attending that little function anyway, and hopefully the after party. I also invited them to my going away party. When I said I was moving, EX-BOYFRIEND #3 said, "I'm not like that idea too much." But just cause I'm the token girl. Other Boy's been hinting at me and him getting together again. How do I tell him I want his best friend?

At Carousel I actually talked to Andy. We were sitting on the porch set. He was reading about a racing car crash and telling me about it. The we talked about how he cried at Free Willy. I told him not to see Coneheads. Then Holly joined us and we talked about Robin Hood: Men in Tights. Later, the nice girl whole talked to me about the Jurassic Park book fell and hurt herself. I felt bad. Then Holly minutely hurt her ankle. Nothing serious. The Carousel set is small but fun. Peach showed me the inside of it.
JULY 26th 2002
He said to me, "I don't think we're gonna get back together." And that was that. It's absolutely over. I am devastated and disillusioned. My life is better because he was in it. I'm gonna move to LA in January. Nothing, absolutely NOTHING can stand in my way now. As tough as it is to not picture them together, I can move on now. A lot of things come to the foreground when the smoke is lifted. We moved too fast, too soon, and it faded. Unfortunately, I feel Tiffany is doomed to this same fate. But the only person I need to worry about is me. I am excited about the future and motivated like never before.

Last Weds, Mary and I went to the American Idols concert. Charles Grigsby (her ex) left us backstage passes and no tickets. So, I had to buy us tickets. Our seats were actually pretty good and the concert was OK. It made me jealous and depressed. ALL I wanted to do was meet Clay Aiken. So we went backstage and breezed past Julia DeMato, Carmen Rasmussen and Kimberley Caldwell to get to Kimberly Locke, Ricky Smith and finally Rueben himself. Rueben started hitting on Mary and apparently Clay had been and gone. I got some OK pictures. COMEDY FLING is coming to visit. Don't let me fall in love, ok?

Mrs. Hecker's husband Don came in 1st period with donuts.
3rd period I overheard Loni and Barb talking about whether Barb should say yes to YKW? No matter. I have back up. It's become a a habit to say good morning to Adam Koelher every day.
The game was OK. I sat by Michelle the whole time. YKW + Ryan walked by a few times, scanning the bleachers.
The dance was boring. I saw YKW and Barb dancing twice. I'm jealous. Even the ugly girls get dances. Even the stupid guys hate me.
SEPTEMBER 10th, 2000
OK, Hooters didn't call. I got called back to Nunsense and the lead in Emperor and got the ballerina role in Nunsense. I was very disappointed, so I asked if I could go to Emperor callbacks. Everyone said yes, but I didn't get it. Then Poopie tells me that Yifat screwed up my good intentions and now everyone thinks I'm a diva. Maggie deserved my ballerina part.
I'm thirsting for the real world. Bob is dating a Ryan Nowlin lookalike. I have been hanging out with Kevin, Amy, Anne, Sean, Matty and Martinez and I love it. Kurt is now in my theatre history class. He's been making eyes at me and asking me to do stuff and I've been aloof and even rude. He got the email I sent earlier this summer (where I apologized for Poopie and the way I treated him) right before he discovered I was in his class. He had called right after he'd read it. Anyway, this weekend I spent with Anne and Martinez and she said they saw him with another girl. So of course, now I want him. That's the way I work and it sucks. I pushed him away and he left and now I want him back.

In 1st period Jamie Michaels and I volunteered to be tenors. The only girls in a group of guys. I was snappy with Nick Neelis and I'm sorry I was.
In 4th period, Michelle told me how YKW and Barb "flirt" by talking, and Barb teasing him with papers, which made him mad. I miss YKW.
At lunch that guy came and called me Rebecca the slut. I was peeved. Michelle said he liked me. When we left, she wanted to go back because she LIKED how he called me RTS! What a gaywad.
Kristen Groffner is on crutches. I would have subbed for her but she'll be walking soon.
At practice, since Cindy's always at F-ball training, Mrs. Thompson got mad and appointed her alternate until (Cindy) she could prove herself.
Mr. Mercer said the play might be "The Good Doctor". ?

In 1st period, Michelle wanted us to have a note notebook. I said NO WAY! You know what that can lead to! I felt kind of guilty though. She bought the notebook and all.
3rd period Jessica Holland was nice to me, somewhat. She started to say something about YKW, but was interrupted. It sounded important.
In 4th period Michelle takes everything I own and examines it.
In lunch I sit at the semi popular table. I hate it. I'm turning into a real nerd. There was some older guy who knew Lisa Hoffman really well and came to sit by us. He was insulting but very funny. I still don't know who he is.
SEPTEMBER 8th, 1994
Katie and I are becoming friends. She's in 4 of my classes.
Katie Mordarski saw Jason yesterday. He has two black eyes, a swollen face and a shiny nose. Jenny Stiger is so excited.
Dan took my ID card and kept it. He also said he'll buy me a Rocky Horror Picture Show t-shirt for my birthday. From the way he acts, I think he likes me, but one can never be too sure.

"Hey Jessica."

"Yes!"
At my desk he patted me on the back.
"So how'd you do Jessica?"
"Fine," I said and peeled off the sticker he'd patted onto my back.

Tony called me on Tues. night. He told me I was pretty. I really want him to go to Wedel's on Fri. Chuck talks to him at Polaris. Chuck says Tony said he likes me. Chuck ALSO said he'll invite him over on Fri. (Tony's got his liscense).
Oh yeah. School. The Masquers meeting was yesterday. The fall play is a bunch of one acts, and the musical is Brigadoon. I'm seeing YKW a lot lately.
4th period Drew was shyly (or sadly) flirting w/me a little. Too late, Drew.

I'm making friends with Lindsay Phillips and Katie Carroll. And I'm making close friends with Dan in Publications. I wonder if anything'll come of it.
Jason Riberdy says Jason H. may come back with a bandage on his nose.
SEPTEMBER 7TH, 1995
Tony called me on Tues. night. He told me I was pretty. I really want him to go to Wedel's on Fri. Chuck talks to him at Polaris. Chuck says Tony said he likes me. Chuck ALSO said he'll invite him over on Fri. (Tony's got his liscense).
Oh yeah. School. The Masquers meeting was yesterday. The fall play is a bunch of one acts, and the musical is Brigadoon. I'm seeing YKW a lot lately.
4th period Drew was shyly (or sadly) flirting w/me a little. Too late, Drew.

SEPTEMBER 6TH, 1993
Today we went to Uncle Owen + Aunt Vicki's. I played Nintendo, and ate olives. I also played with Kaetlyn's Jurassic Park velociraptor that screams. We saw the Serrani's on the way home.
SEPTEMBER 6TH, 1994
Tara Donegan told me that Kirt is going into surgery this Thurs. then coming to school 2 wks after. She asked him if he was still going out with me; he said he heard I was using him so he didn't call me all summer. He did, though. I was never home and didn't return his calls. Oh well. In 7th period there's a frosh named Dan Burke. He's cute (And acts like Kirt)
SEPTEMBER 6TH, 2004
Well, it's exactly one year later and BOYFRIEND 4 and I broke up. Well, I dumped him. Over email, of course. For the past week we've been emailing our breakup. Well, I've been breaking up, he doesn't really say too much besides how he hates it and how awful he feels. I have yet to hear him say anything in his defense, or anything to stop me from going.
I dumped him because I never saw him, he won't call me his girlfriend, and I'm not a part of his life in any way. So I've joined the ranks of Melissa and Alisa and all the other girls who dumped him for not giving enough. And he's sad, just like he was with them. And I guess that's it.
I never thought I'd ever dump someone I love.

FEBRUARY 27th, 1994
I didn't go to the dance. I was only allowed on the phone for 15 mins. I accidentally stayed on for like, 17 or 20.
It's another boring day. Haley Smith slept over, today we're going to Uncle Nick's and Aunt Von's.
I miss Sandusky. I love it up there and I'm glad we're renting a beachouse for a week there in the summer. It's on Cedar Point Road, a lane full of houses on Lake Erie. We'll go to CP once that week and that's the day BOY can come up. But mom won't let him spend the night. It's prejudice. Just cause he's a boy. He's my best friend, and my boyfriend. It's not like he'll do anything.
FEBRUARY 27th, 1995
Amy said Beth hates me and makes fun of my singing. Another one dragged on to Heinrich's side.
In 7th period, Tony was in the Social Studies office flirting with Holly. I don't care.
This weekend, Suze will see Greg at States. It's not fair, but that's life. C'est la vie. Or something.
FEBRUARY 27th, 1996
NO SCHOOL!! What a great surprise! The water main broke! So I tagged along with Julie and Sharon when they went to find outfits for the Talent Show. Julie, Sharon, Sabrina, Andrea, Nikki Freska and Angie Dibiase are dancing in the background while Paul and Ben rap up front. Then I watched them all practice in Julie's basement. I even danced a little. I felt really in the way though. And when Paul and Ben came and said they were treating everyone to lunch, I left. Paul kinda ignored me. I was sort of disappointed. It could be cause he just got off the phone with his ex that he's obsessed with. Oh well.
I called BOY when I got home, but it was too late for us to do anything cause he had to stay home at 4:00 and work at 6:00. It was SOOOOO warm!! I even opened up my windows!!

FEBRUARY 23rd, 1993
SNOW DAY!! When we least expected it!
I went sledding with Holly G and Marion. Christina cryed because her parents wouldn't let her come. We went to the hill in Berea where I went years ago with Paulette, Holly S, Stacey and Christie Winners.
Guess who showed up just as we were leaving? YKW! He might have seen me go down the hill. What are the odds of him showing up?
FEBRUARY 23rd, 1994
It's before school. I only have a few minutes. We had Ski Club last night. The usual with Kirt but on the bus Greg Manning, Kirt and I were all talking:
"Everyone likes her." (Kirt)
"Jason Brown, Craig..." (me)
"Me." (Kirt)
"YKW still does." (Greg)
"What?" (me)
"He did last year, too." (Greg)
"Then why didn't he ask me out?" (me)
"He says he doesn't ask girls out, they ask him." (Greg)
What an ego. But the shocker was on the slopes:
"Hey Jess!" (YKW)
"Huh?"
"Do you have your Black?"
"No."
"Then you shouldn't be on these hills!"
He talked to me! He called me Jess, not Wilderbeast! Although, that nickname came up at other times. On the bus he said,
"Wilderbeast, I love it." Kirt said YKW loved me. And once, I looked back and he was staring at me. Then he quickly looked away.
Oh yeah. The day went OK. Tues night when BOY called I subtly confronted him about his ex-girlfriend. Then the next day I gave him a note where I spilled everything about how he was never serious, blah blah. He wrote back saying he likes me and thinks we're great together.
The usual. GIRL thinks I'm mad at her cause she ruined our Little Prince skit. I really just hate her. At practice, we did "All the Livelong Day" again.
Kath says Sharon Manuel is going to tryout for some choir thing with "On My Own". If it's the Pop Concert, I'll scream!!
BOY said YKW was really distracted today. He didn't insult him, and he forgot his gym clothes and just sat silently on the side. I wonder...
FEBRUARY 23rd, 1995
In 7th period I saw Holly and Tony walking. I walked with them. I just asked him if he cut his hair, (he did) but said "No, I just slicked it back." I said, "Hey!" They laughed and I stalked off into the bathroom jokingly. Then Tony didn't show up to rehearsal. Someone probably told him I like him and he went home to throw up. One of these days, god will have pity on me and give me a boyfriend.
FEBRUARY 23rd, 1996
I talked to BOY at lunch. I told him I was sorry for ignoring him and he said sorry for losing his temper. He said he'd lost 6 lbs in the two days I ignored him. He thought it was over (again). I told him I didn't want it to be completely over. So now we're back where we started. But I still feel allowed to see other people. And I did.
At play practice I flirted with Norris and Ben and Paul. I agreed to be Paul's date for the movies that night. I told Norris I might go out to the McDonald's with him and Jim before the movie. But I cancelled it and went with Julie and Paul to the mall for food, then picked up Ben and went to the movie. Norris made me promise to save him a seat. But him and Jim were late and me, Paul, Teper, Don, Ben, Julie, Carlos, Mike and some other guy took up a whole row. So he was kinda mad. Paul and I held hands during the movie "Happy Gilmore" (with Adam Sandler); it was kinda weird. After that we (Ben, Julie, Paul and me) were gonna go down to Huntington Beach, but a cop started following us. I feel asleep on Paul's lap. So Ben just took us back to his house to pick up Julie's car and go home. There, I gave Paul a kiss on the cheek and sat in Julie's car. But Ben and Julie were hugging so Paul opened my door so we wouldn't have to watch. I hugged him cause he said he was cold - and what do you know? It was the Paul Sems experience all over again. Except this Paul is a better kisser. And I started it too! I don't even know if I like Paul like that. Who'd of thunk it?
FEBRUARY 23rd, 1997
Last night Holly Stone, Julie, Christy and I went to Scott's beer party. His parents were out of town everybody from Westlake was there. I hung out with Phil, Chris Rybicki and Chad Ritchie. Chad and me and Julie bonded and he says we're popular now. Scott was all over me to show his friends how cool I am and Chad was like "No! You're supposed to be a good girl!" Later - Chad asked me to go show him where the pop is and then lead me to a back hallway where we made out for about 10 minutes until we heard Katie calling for me. Then I drove him and Julie home. That was really weird.
But - at work Sat, Justin finally talked to me! I wrote him a note on Fri and said I'm sorry. Yea! I still like him. I hope we can at least become friends again.

FEBRUARY 22nd, 1993
At 8:15 we (Marion and I) went in to work for Mrs. Henderson. She had me go to the boiler room to get a bulb changed. Then we organized the closet. I saw an old Health project of YKW's. It was a clay heart. I said I would break his heart.
In the hall, Crystal said "I know who you like! YKW!"
In 1st period I got Tom's mind off of "Andy Post" by calling attention to the fact that Jessi Heim and Bryan Schleigh were always together. He didn't mention Andy.
In 2nd period, "You Must Fly" went to the band room to practice. Tiffany said I wasn't singing loud enough. Michelle Gaspar said YKW walked past her house Sunday. Her little siblings were yelling for him to come over. He ignored them. Briget said she didn't expect him to be that tall.
In 3rd period, Mrs. Petrokowski was very "lively". She dumped a box of styrofoam all over the floor.
At lunch, I saw YKW eating a sandwich (white bread) with his mouth closed. What a gentlemen!
In 4th period we had to go to study hall all period instead of art aiding. I had to sit by Chris Rybicki (whom Christina says likes me) because my old seat was taken by Joe Casola.
In 5th period while we did a lab about optical illusions (tube; hole in the hand), Mrs. Thompson read our points. I'm getting an A by 1 point! Pete shook my hand. We talked some more about time-share with the high school.
In 6th period, Mrs. Dean, my favorite 7th grade science teacher, interrupted our class to talk to me. In the hall she asked about Michelle Lappa (last year we kept her turtle Izzy as a class pet. Mrs. Dean needed the lent aquarium back. I said I didn't know where she was. Last year, I designed a background for it with Becky Spears and painted it.) Back in class, when YKW got to be Supreme court judge, he passed me a couple times. He ignored me and I him. Melissa Hill was absent so Michelle Magnone moved into her seat for special seating.
In 7th period Jason Henzen knew I liked YKW. He wrote it all over his folder. Sigh. Tom T knows too.
Dying is such a big word for a kid as young as Laurie.
FEBRUARY 22nd, 1994
Play practice was OK. We worked with Andrew Blenderman on "All the Livelong Day."
FEBRUARY 22nd, 1995
Lauren Stamm and her dad are both in "The Secret Garden". I'm not. Well, let's see..how many failures is that just this year? Shall we recap?
1. Jason says no
2. Drew says nothing
3. Katie is Marion
4. No Biology field trip
5. No Secret Garden
Pretty bumming year. I hope next year will be better.
Today I practiced "Piano Lesson" by myself (no Katie). Suze and I kept bumping into Tony everywhere while we roamed the halls looking for her brother (our ride home). When I said hi, he stared at me and said, "Hi, Jessica." Then, when we saw him again I said "Stop following us!" He laughed. As we were heading out the door, he was there, I said bye. He was acting so strange. Maybe he knows.
FEBRUARY 22nd, 1996
Last night, BOY called. I hung up without even saying hello. He called back a few seconds later and my sister said "I'm sorry, she doesn't want to talk to you."
Today he ignored and avoided me and fawned over Jen Cook (why?). At play practice he stared at me all day while I flirted with Ben, Paul and Norris. Norris told me he liked me and Sabrina and he'd dump Jen in a second for me. I kinda do like him, but I still like BOY so much! And then there's Greg - AHHH!
Justin and I started fighting because he told Matt about the me and him and Julie thing and I told Paul and it's all messed up.
SIDEBAR: Justin just called. Me, him and Julie are going out tonight to talk about all this.
FEBRUARY 22nd, 1998
BOYFRIEND 2 scared me this weekend by saying he thought we spent too much time together and our relationship was too cutesy and high school. So I got sad and questioned everything he said. So finally he said he wanted to be my boyfriend and he loves me. He never really closed the subject. I still bring it up.
I competed at Forensics on Friday and Saturday with "Cat in the Hat" This time, the judges weren't so open-minded and I didn't place. When I got home, I got letters from Cedar Point (I'm an alternate, as always) and Trumpet in the Land (I'm chorus) and BOYFRIEND 2 in my bed. I've been skipping Antigone and Sweeney rehearsals every now and again (with excuses) because my parts are small and boring. Dad came up today and took BOYFRIEND 2 and I to lunch at Ranch. I bought a new camera at Wal-Mart. Last night, BOYFRIEND 2 and I watched Fear and Loathing at Heather's.

FEBRUARY 20th, 1993
Today was Pom-Pom. We have an exhibition dance tomorrow from 8:00 to 12:00.
Marion called and asked if I wanted to go to a movie (4:45). Dad said no.
~~~~~~~~~~
The dance was fun. Kath didn't go. She had the flu. I'll get it next.
We did our routine and danced till midnight. I wore my singer's uniform. Everyone liked it. I started the bunny hop and everyone on the floor joined in! We requested YMCA and Aladdin to Irene + the Irishman but the only pop song they could play was Achy-Breaky Heart by Billy Ray Cyrus - yick!
I like Pom-Pom. Can't wait till the parade!
FEBRUARY 20th, 1994
BOY called while Kath and Mom were at Baton. He invited me to Cedar Point tomorrow. I'm allowed. Kelly's sleeping over.
BOY called last night also. Today I teased him about Frances Ruffelle and Kirt. He's probably annoyed.
I'm talking to BOY right now. We're depressed. He's looking at his Les Miz book. When I said "I have 15, no wait, 16 - I got a new one - posters of Jonathan Brandis in my room!" he said: "Oh, I think I'm gonna cry!"
FEBRUARY 20th, 1995
We had no school, but a 5 hour long Music Man practice. Did I tell you what Heinrich said to Matt? "Well, Ribs was all ready to go out with Jess, but I changed his mind!" What a jerk! But today during 76 Trombones, I gave him my empty pop can. "What? You want me to hold this?" "No, set it down, please." He was so friendly and humorous. I hate him.
Matt said Tony likes my body (which is every guy's dream, but not with my personality). So what? He still flirts with Lauren.
Greg Paradis taught me to play "All Apologies" on Josh Jesty's guitar.
FEBRUARY 20th, 1996
Last night, during the phone conversation with BOY, he started crying. I felt so bad. He said he needs me.
Today I was very quiet and withdrawn. I ended up writing a note to BOY saying maybe we should cool it for awhile.
After school he waited for me and we talked about it. I totally went back and said I didn't want him to leave, I do, I'm so confused! He's hurt, but he understands (I hope) that I need some time to think it all out.
At play practice we ran through a few scenes and Ben took me, Paul and Tony home. I told them about the Justin thing. They loved it.
Today was Pom-Pom. We have an exhibition dance tomorrow from 8:00 to 12:00.

I'm talking to BOY right now. We're depressed. He's looking at his Les Miz book. When I said "I have 15, no wait, 16 - I got a new one - posters of Jonathan Brandis in my room!" he said: "Oh, I think I'm gonna cry!"

We had no school, but a 5 hour long Music Man practice. Did I tell you what Heinrich said to Matt? "Well, Ribs was all ready to go out with Jess, but I changed his mind!" What a jerk! But today during 76 Trombones, I gave him my empty pop can. "What? You want me to hold this?" "No, set it down, please." He was so friendly and humorous. I hate him.
Matt said Tony likes my body (which is every guy's dream, but not with my personality). So what? He still flirts with Lauren.
Greg Paradis taught me to play "All Apologies" on Josh Jesty's guitar.
FEBRUARY 20th, 1996
Last night, during the phone conversation with BOY, he started crying. I felt so bad. He said he needs me.
Today I was very quiet and withdrawn. I ended up writing a note to BOY saying maybe we should cool it for awhile.
After school he waited for me and we talked about it. I totally went back and said I didn't want him to leave, I do, I'm so confused! He's hurt, but he understands (I hope) that I need some time to think it all out.
At play practice we ran through a few scenes and Ben took me, Paul and Tony home. I told them about the Justin thing. They loved it.

FEBRUARY 8th, 1993
Today I went over Michelle Gaspar's house. We roller skated in her basement, read about peoples' embarrassing moments in YM magazine, listened to Aladdin and played Oregon Trail on the computer. It's been about 3 months since YKW knew I liked him. About 4 or 5 months until summer. 8 months until high school.
I am reading 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. So far I love it. It was one of my favorite rides at Disney World.
in 6th period we had Ms. Daily as a sub. We were coughing and saying "Erv!" at the same time. (as in Ervin Reed) I can't wait until Ski Club.
FEBRUARY 8th, 1994
Last night BOY called. We talked for an hour or so. I teased him saying he liked GIRL, and Amy and Megan O'Malley and Becky Angel, all of which he denied. He said I liked BOY, and Kirt and Jonathan Brandis.
Today we had the first cast meeting for Working. Despite GIRL being in it, it's an awesome musical!! Besides being John Rolfing, newsboy, I'm also the silent memory of the son in "Fathers + Sons" and in the women's chorus. I am so excited! I love my part! I have one long line and a long solo/song with backup "bushes".
FEBRUARY, 8th, 1995
Greg Paradis said he went up to Heinrich and said, "Hey there, Eric." (from The Crow) and Jason said, "You've been talking to Jess Kemock. She's the only one who calls me that." What? I do?
At rehearsal Tony flirted with Lauren Stamm (who flirts with everyone) and hit me. I hate this.
FEBRUARY 8th, 1996
After school Julie, Sharon and I went to Convenient before our 4:20 chorus rehearsal. I only saw BOY a few times. After rehearsal, Sharon and I ate dinner at Dr. Joe's Pizza.
FEBRUARY 8th, 1998
On Friday, I went to OTA auditions in Columbus with Molly, Kelly, Sarah, Christina, Megan, Bethany, and Chris. We stayed at the Red Roof Inn and visited with Bryan Patrick Foley and Mark Rhodes. At the auditions, I got called back to SEVEN companies! Emily Cawrse was there and we were inseprable until we left around 9pm. I was so happy to see her! We both got called back to this company we both really want to do. (the Barn Theatre in Michigan)
Then I had Sweeney rehearsal at 6:30 today. Heather and I are playing twins in one scene.
FEBRUARY 8th, 2003
Just got home from a fun night. BOY and his friend BOYFRIEND 4 came to see my show and then we hung out afterwards. BOY is totally obsessed with his ex-girlfriend. I'm really not sure what's going on, but it's big drama.
We all sat in the cabaret afterwards - BOYFRIEND 4 is hilarious and caught the eye of my castmate, Jill. BOYFRIEND immediately assumed the role of my big brother, although he seemed a little flirty too. I think that's his thing. We went to a bar called the Blind Pig where BOY had a weird, heated conversation with his ex-girlfriend and we all stood around awkwardly. BOY and BOYFRIEND 4 are so refreshing. They crack me up and they are pretty much the male versions of me. I really hope they sincerely like me too and we continue to hang out.
Wow. Laughter makes such a difference.

I had ACT tests from 8am to 11:30am. Borrrrinng!! I didn't get any of it. Then I went to Talent Show tryouts with Holly G. We just watched. Then we went to the mall. We played Ecco the Dolphin at Software, etc. It was the funnest game I've ever played! You can jump and porpoise and flip - EXACTLY like a real dolphin!! I really felt like I was a dolphin! I love it! Too bad it's for Sega. Holly says she wants it so I'll be able to play.
Tonight, Kelly might come over because of bowling. I can't go over to Michelle's or Holly's.
Jocelyn (the GREAT "natural dancer," she says) didn't try out like she told the whole school.
FEBRUARY 6th, 1994
I went to see "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective" with Holly today. She seems more mature than in the summer. Maybe it's just me. All I can think about is BOY. He called me last night. We talked about the usual. I like him so much I'm going insane!!
FEBRUARY 6th, 1995
Saturday was Drew's (I think 15th) birthday. I wonder what gift Sabrina gave him.
Today Tony told Holly S. that I gave him a picture of her at Forensics. (which I did. He thinks she's good luck. Whenever he's with her, he sees Mary) Apparently Holly thought it was a picture of us sitting on the toilet together (which we used to do when we were 3 YEARS OLD!!). So Tony came up to me and said he wanted a picture of us in the bathroom. Paul said the same thing later. It was hilarious.
Today was a TAP Day so I got to sleep in. (Tues, Weds, Thurs are also TAP Days)
Amy told me that when I sang the national anthem on Friday, Riberdy and Matt gave me a standing ovation. But wait...isn't everyone supposed to stand?

Ski Club was excellent! I think YKW likes me. He didn't say anything mean to me except:
We were in line for North Bowl. He was unlatching Greg's shoes and saying:
"She did it!" (pointing to me)
"YKW, you are very mean." (me)
"Shuddup." (him)
When I tried to unlatch Greg's shoes he said:
"No, try this one," he laughed, when he couldn't get it off. "Maybe that one!"
On the slopes:
"Don't keep making ten turns, you have to get up some speed." (him)
"Thanks." (me)
On the bus, Brent and Melissa were running around the bus (Chinese fire drill).
FEBRUARY 5th, 1994
Well, I got the Newsboy! BOY didn't get in. Tessa, Elicia and Emily Adams got small parts while me and Kim Hocevar got leads (she sings the Millworking song).
Forensics was awesome! I only had to perform twice. (So did everyone else) in 1 hour rounds, then 1 hour break while the other events performed. BOY was in a different group so I didn't really see him till the end. We had to wait for hours! We sat at a table (by ourselves) and drew pictures of Cookie. I brought my camera.
When BOY started getting wild, I got mad and ignored him, unless he was serious.
FEBRUARY 5th, 1995
Tony scared the Puppy away for good by having a seizure and biting open a pop can. I took him out in the hall and pretended to give him his medication. Greg, a cute guy who I WISH would follow me around like a puppy, came over and talked with us. And we played Ouija. Susan, Gail and Nicole are all going to States. Me and Amy Church got shafted but we have another chance next week.
FEBRUARY 5th, 1996
It was a Tap Day. I only saw BOY once or twice. I thought about Greg over a million times. I showed everyone his picture. I got mixed results. Most people agreed that he's hot. BOY wrote me a note saying how he figured out who I had a "fling" with. He didn't say who. I think he knows it's Justin.
Greg is occupying my every thought. Only 2 more tournaments! What if I mean nothing to him! What if I do mean something to him? I have to wait two more weeks till the next tournament. How will I survive?
FEBRUARY 5th, 2004
Last night I saw my first celebrities - Vince Vaughn and Mila Kunis - at Dublin's on Sunset. Big Ed and I went to the free Tuesday comedy show to see Dane Cook, but he wasn't there that night.
I think I'll be moving to Burbank in a week or so. Amy Kletecka's friend needs a roomie and I need to get out of Costa Mesa. It's too far. So that postpones me getting a job as well - unless I go up around there to look. I HATE not having a job. I just sit around watching TV like a slob. And Best Buy had my laptop for a good week, doing stuff they said would only take an hour, and now they lost my battery. But I need to focus on the good.
