JANUARY 7th, 1993
Today in 7th period English, Mrs. Gulden said in front of the class that my "Bambi Goes to the Psychiatrist" story was the best written material in the 8th grade. She then helped me with my Reflections. I also overheard Erin Lanigan interviewing Steve Olin:
STEVE OLIN
age - 14
pets - dog
home - Glenbrook
fav. color - black
sports - Basketball, Ftball, Baseball
rest. - Nam-Wah Express
Ski Club is cancelled again!
I get to be in the St. Patrick's Day parade - Pom-Pom. I would say I love school but the last time I said that I almost died of embarassment. See November 13.
JANUARY 7th, 1994
BOY wrote me a note that said "What's going out mean?" I wrote the answer at lunch. Holly S. came over, what the heck? I let her write something. Then Alison. Then Lisa. Then Julie. Then Tessa. Then Ryan Thomas. I thought it was funny at first and let Lisa give it to him 5th period. Then I thought about it, it wasn't very nice. I felt bad so I wrote an apology note. It said "I'm sorry. I like you. I don't know how you feel about me, but I guess it doesn't matter since you'll probably never speak to me again." or something. He wrote back saying he's not mad and he doesn't know how he feels. Him and GIRL are coming over tomorrow. Mrs. Hecker played the accompanyments WAY too slow! I'll get Mrs. Crandall to.
JANUARY 7th, 1995
He didn't tell us!! All day I was wondering why. He sent Mrs. Mercer down to tell me to keep my mind on Forensics. (Katie wasn't there) Well I got 3rd place and a trophy! I called Katie and we talked about everything. We talked about how the one who doesn't make it will probably be the understudy for the other. So we promised that who ever made it would miss one day so the other can kiss Jason.
JANUARY 7th, 1996
Oh yeah - Matt says BOY likes Sharon and because she doesn't like him he's crawling back to me. I knew that. He's liked her since September. I was just convieniently there. I've decided to just be friends with him. Also - BOY called just as I was leaving. He asked what happened. I said "I'm leaving - so I'll make this quick. I still like you, but I hate boys and I'm not ready to jump into another relationship. BOY really screwed me up. So don't worry, you're not forgotten - I'll call you."
Today I worked 1-6. I saw Scott. Warren sent me to relieve him at merchandise. He brightened when he saw me. And he playfully yelled at me. Then I got put into Kid Check, so I only saw him a few other times. The times I glanced at him - he seemed happy to see me. I don't know. He's cute.
JANUARY 7th, 1997
First day back at school. Nothing new there.
The BOY thing fell through. I waited till Fri. assuming he'd be free, but he spent his last night with his girlfriend, Jessi. But, he told me he's sick of girls tieing him down and he wants to be free to date with his girlfriend not minding. I told him that's what I want. He left on Sat. He's coming back for Easter. This isn't over.
BOY and I went to his grandma's and lunch on Sat. Then we went to Border's where he bought a Mystery Science Theater 3000 movie (our latest fad) and to Chuck E's. There, Scott promised me anything I wanted in exchange for me getting his hat from Katie (who kept it after Phil's party).
JANUARY 7th, 1998
Yesterday, Heather, my dad and I went to Cedar Point auditions. I gave it my all while singing "Take Back Your Mink" and "Hopelessly Devoted to You" (they asked for my second song which they hadn't been doing because of the time pressure) and gt called back to dance. Heather didn't get called back so she signed up to be a Berenstein Bear and basically got hired. The dancing was...whoa! REAL dancing. It was fun, but I could hardly follow. When we tried out in 3's, the two on either side of me lost it towards the end and since I kept going, I looked good. I'm not saying this looks promising. But I picked up a regular park application for the summer. If Heather's definitely working there and BOYFRIEND 2 was thinking about it, it could be cool.

JANUARY 6th, 1993
Today in art we had Gummou again (the whole week). Then in 2nd period we worked on our MPV's. I had to go in for Mrs. Petrykowski to check my homework (that I missed cause of the cruise) and she let me do a few problems with Jenny Warchola (who was in for help). Look:
11+14=25, 14+10=24, 24+24=48, 25+25=50, 50+48=98ft.
The perimeter of the garden and the pathway is 98ft! TA-DA!
In 4th period gym, the boys on our volleyball team yelled and jumped in front of us. I touched the ball a couple times, too because Cory (the one man game) Chapman wasn't there.
5th period science we "played" with genecons and circuits. I had to take two quizzes for Mrs. Thompson in morning homeroom.
In 6th period Social Studies, YKW wasn't there. He was in 1st period art though. I didn't see him in first lunch either. We did our "what if we lost" Revolutionary War presentations. I made a poster for our group (Dione Wolfe, Kristen Groffner, Cheryl Boscerello) which brings me to last night. (We got our cruise pictures, went to a book store and went home).
7th period English we did our pre-test in spelling. I got to read the words to the class and I made up new sentences. For pryed, I said "The squirrel pryed open the acorn, but then Jack shot him." Everyone laughed because Jack Holmes hunts animals like squirrels and cats. We did a prompt writing exercise. The topic was, I just ran out of _______? I put air and wrote about someone who died scuba diving.
There's my day. 5 more months until summer vacation.
JANUARY 6th, 1994
GIRL and I brought our cameras to school. I got pictures of Brian Motsay, Keith Soloman, Ryan Rinaldo, Nick Neelis, etc.
BOY lent me the Les Miz book I've wanted forever.
JANUARY 6th, 1995
I tried out today and did great. So did Jason. He's definitely the Music Man. Katie says it's either her, me or Kim for Marion. I think it's her. I doubt I'll be Marion. I really doubt it. I'll find out if I made callbacks tomorrow.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I made callbacks. Jason is definitely Harold and it's either me or Katie.
Katie and me and Jason were the last to go. Katie and him read, then me and him. I thought I did well. I changed energy levels well. Then Katie and I sang "Till There Was You" again.
JANUARY 6th, 1996
Last night - Elicia called just as my family ad I were going to Golden Corral (Tony, Paul and Ben's new workplace). She invited me to go to the wrestling match. I did. We met Julie there and all sat together. Then, we went to Parson's. Matt and Justin were all watching Dumb and Dumber. We borrowed Matt and Justin and went to Middleburg McDonald's then to Berea McDonald's (where we actually went in and ate). Then we all went back to Justin's and all laid on his bed and talked. Then we moved downstairs to watch Die Hard w/a Vengence. (Oh yeah, Sharon had since come over.) We were all having fun until...
Marc and BOY showed up. BOY sat by Sharon but slowly moved by me. Then, everyone but me and BOY went home. I felt nothing. I kept saying to myself - 'I don't want to date other people' and I do!
Today at Forensics, me and Suze went over by Greg (he was alone) and we talked about crossword puzzles. I saw his eyes keep flickering to me when Suze was talking. I kinda felt like he was mildly interested. Then I sat by him in my next round. We didn't talk. After that we went back over. We talked a little (he works at Rini-Rego's and is the fastest checker, he wants to be called 'Fast Greg' and he loves Nirvana). Then he and some guy left to find the capital of Fiji (a question in one of his puzzles) and he never came back. Me and Suze took this as a hint and left. We saw them at a table with a crowd of girls. Then during the Power Round (I didn't make it, but everyone could go watch) the only seat left was next to him. But he was engrossed in conversation with two pretty girls. After all that, as we were pulling out of Crestwood on our bus, I saw him and waved. He just smiled and nodded like a snob. Well, then!! I guess I'm not good enough for him!
Then tonight, me, Matt, Elicia, and Sharon cruised around. Elicia likes BOY (a little) and she said he said he'd meet us at Wedel's later. (with Drew, I think) Elicia said Drew was having trouble with Lauren, but I was only mildly interested. We went to McDonald's then to Wedel's. Justin came over and we all sat (well, I layed) on Matt's bed. I fell asleep.

JANUARY 5th, 1993
In 1st period art, I heard the boys at Y.K.W.'s table say (I think) Jessica K. I saw Y.K.W. looking at me for a long time, then shielding his face from me.
I remember I asked Laurie Patrick to ask Luke Swan out for me. I remember waiting for her after school. I remember meeting her for the first time in PSR.
JANUARY 5th, 1994
Mike K. asked BOY if he was going out with me. He said yes.
While I was waiting for the bus, BOY didn't come over to talk. But 4th period he personally handed me his note.
Ski Club was OK. I stayed with Kourtini and got my dark blue. Y.K.W. kept his distance. He got these awesome new skis. Greg was guarding them when Y.K.W. went to get a snack, I went over.
"Are those his skis?"
"Yep!"
"They're awesome, he doesn't deserve them," I mocked spit at them.
At 9:00 we (Michelle Magnone, Christine Miller, Kourtini and I) boarded the bus. A few minutes later YKW and Greg came on. I was taking pictures left and right. I got YKW's as he was walking passed my seat.
"What was that for?"
"America's Funniest Home Videos."
Upheals of laughter from the girls, but YKW just scoffed and moved on. He sat/stood in his seat with his back against the window, just staring into oblivion. Greg was behind him. I looked over.
"Jessica likes YKW!" Greg teased.
In unison, YKW and I gave him disgusted, annoyed stares that read "what?!"
On the way home I sat with Christine. We're becoming kind of friends. She's a pretty good skier for a beginner. Lindsay Phillips sat in the seat before YKW's. Katie Krakowiak sat with her. They talked to YKW and Greg all the way home. I was so jealous.
I think I still like YKW.
JANUARY 5th, 1996
BOY came in to Mrs. Bock's room before school while I was getting extra help to ask what work he missed. He smiled at me. After that he only smiled at me after band and kicked my foot while I was at my locker after 6th period. When I turned (a few seconds too late) to see who it was, he was turning around and missed me seeing him. He probably thinks I ignored him.
BOY flirted with me a little. That's cool. I guess. And BOY flirted with me a little in Golden Expressions. He kicked me, unzipped my bag and gave me pretty much his whole pop. I shoved him (gently) and he fell back on the risers. (I knew he would. That's the cool thing about risers. He wasn't hurt, though.)
I saw Drew a few times. He seemed kinda depressed. I know the feeling. I feel that I don't belong anywhere. The Homeys want Julie and Sharon, not me. I doubt the Homestead Drive gang wants me back. I don't fit in anywhere. Drew said (on the phone yesterday) that Dan Burke's coming over tonight. Maybe they'll call me. Other than that, I'm alone at home for the night.
JANUARY 5th, 2002
Not much new. I'm starting to make good money at Red Lobster. I still haven't gotten paid for my commercial, but my agent has kept in touch. Xmas with fam was fun. We had Xmas Eve + Xmas at our house. BOYFRIEND 3 and I are great. His birthday and our 5-month anniversary are coming up. He's been on break for three weeks, so we've both been just working, playing Nintendo and sleeping! No word from Cedar Point for either of us. I'm worried. No matter how I rationalize it, I'll be disappointed if I don't make it. I'm planning on working there too much.
JANUARY 5th, 2003
Yea!! I got cast in a Cedar Point-style cabaret show at an amazing club in downtown Cleveland called Pickwick and Frolic. Finally, I get to sing cool songs into a handheld mic, like Christina! I quit Red Lobster because Pickwick PAYS! I am officially a professional singer! And the two gay directors really like me (for some odd reason)!
Also, I've been emailing with a guy from a local TV show called "Last Call Cleveland" and he saw my webpage and said they'd be interested in working w/me. So I'm going to their show at Second City on the 13th. Too bad boys suck or I might be interested in him.
JANUARY 5TH, 2007
Money's really tight now. I seem to go in spurts of steady income, then no income. I'm frustrated because Lillie's buying a theatre, and has asked Sarah to manage and B.Unit to bartend. She hasn't asked me to do anything and that hurts doubly when I'm so poor. I really hope I can be involved. I need steady income so badly!
My agents haven't called in a long time, despite the Christmas break.
BOYFRIEND 4 is the same. I officially ended it over Christmas, but then kissed him a few days later. So not much has changed. Except that he's very aware of my crush on BOY and my intentions of pursuing it. I still secretly love BOYFRIEND 4, and always will, but I'm not waiting around. It's his move. Besides, nothing can even happen for years, so I want to see if maybe I could like someone else.

Today, school resumed. I gave Mrs. Thompson and Mr. Schellentrager their gifts.
I think Y.K.W. likes Jessi Prest. I thought I heard (in 1st period art) Scott Chrise say Jessica! He likes you! And Y.K.W. said I do not!! sigh.
Holly G. made me a Aladdin, Monty Python, and Steve Wright tape. I like it better than my old Ali tape.
In art (Mrs. Gummou subbed) we are making masks. I'm making a Hawwiian evil dolphin named Kiko who punishes my enemies.
JANUARY 4th, 1994
Holly Stone told me that BOY said we were kinda going out. Lisa Hoffmann said when she asked him, he said yes.
Marc said Mike Klamut might beat up BOY because he thinks his girlfriend Sarah might like BOY. BOY knows nothing about any of this.
He was absent yesterday because he was at a funeral, his Gramma.
JANUARY 4th, 1995
I watched auditions today. GIRL was terrible, but you never know. Katie was good. She'd make a good Mrs. Paroo, too, so maybe I will get Marion maybe.
Matt was talking to Heinrich (who was watching too) and asked him if he liked my hair short or long. He said he likes it better now. Maybe he doesn't hate me.
JANUARY 4th, 1996
Yesterday was a snow day so Sharon came over then we went to McDonald's and Walmart with Julie and took a tag off the new line of Richard Simmons clothes. It was fun. Then at home, I called Chris (I had a message that he called) and we talked for an hour or two.
Today was depressing and I can't pinpoint why. It may be that BOY obviously likes Julie, or that I can't figure out what to do about Chris, or the fact that I might not be able to do Brigadoon. We had a Masquers meeting today. We talked about Thespians (a new club we're joining (it's national)) and Brigadoon.
Well, I guess I'll go call Chris.
Oh yeah - Drew just called me and agreed to do the Talent Show with me (a band singing "What's Up?"
JANUARY 4th, 1999
My first day off since...a week ago? Work has been long, boring, and hard on my knees. I have taken to lying around watching TV and lifting weights in my free time.
Only four more days until I'm back in BG! I got my grades back and I'm in good shape. I have a 3.37 and am a junior now. I can't wait to go back. This week, I have my Cedar Point audition, then work on Thurs. and Sat., then leave Sat. night!
JANUARY 4th, 2004
Things just got a lot worse. Or a lot better. I don't know.
BOYFRIEND 4 has been so great these last few days. He came out with the fam and I to Pizza Hut and to see "Elf" again on Friday. He calls all the time. He's almost like a real boyfriend.
Then today. I went over BOY's and recorded a few songs for my demo. BOYFRIEND 4 joined us and we all went to Angelo's Pizza. I hinted that I should stop by his house for a minute before I went to work. So we got comfy on his bed for awhile. I gave him his late Xmas present, a Homestar Runner tee shirt.
He kept saying we have a problem. He was at fault for letting himself fall for me. But I totally wasn't expecting him to say this:
"I probably shouldn't say this right now. It's mean of me to say it before you leave. But I'm pretty sure I love you."
Holy shit. Of course I said I love you too. I can't believe he really said that. I almost didn't believe. He went on to say he hadn't said that to anyone in 2 years. I was completely shocked. He was pretty quiet.
I'm in denial. I have to move. We're not going to be together.
Today, school resumed. I gave Mrs. Thompson and Mr. Schellentrager their gifts.

Oh yeah - Drew just called me and agreed to do the Talent Show with me (a band singing "What's Up?"
JANUARY 4th, 1999
My first day off since...a week ago? Work has been long, boring, and hard on my knees. I have taken to lying around watching TV and lifting weights in my free time.
Only four more days until I'm back in BG! I got my grades back and I'm in good shape. I have a 3.37 and am a junior now. I can't wait to go back. This week, I have my Cedar Point audition, then work on Thurs. and Sat., then leave Sat. night!
JANUARY 4th, 2004
Things just got a lot worse. Or a lot better. I don't know.
BOYFRIEND 4 has been so great these last few days. He came out with the fam and I to Pizza Hut and to see "Elf" again on Friday. He calls all the time. He's almost like a real boyfriend.
Then today. I went over BOY's and recorded a few songs for my demo. BOYFRIEND 4 joined us and we all went to Angelo's Pizza. I hinted that I should stop by his house for a minute before I went to work. So we got comfy on his bed for awhile. I gave him his late Xmas present, a Homestar Runner tee shirt.
He kept saying we have a problem. He was at fault for letting himself fall for me. But I totally wasn't expecting him to say this:
"I probably shouldn't say this right now. It's mean of me to say it before you leave. But I'm pretty sure I love you."
Holy shit. Of course I said I love you too. I can't believe he really said that. I almost didn't believe. He went on to say he hadn't said that to anyone in 2 years. I was completely shocked. He was pretty quiet.
I'm in denial. I have to move. We're not going to be together.

JANUARY 3rd, 1994
School was OK, but BOY was absent. Ski Club starts this Weds.
I missed BOY.
I got Mrs. Hecker to make a tape of "On My Own" so I can tryout for the talent show. I need a real accompanyest if I make it.
JANUARY 3rd, 1995
Heinrich is trying out for the Music Man! And everyone says I'll be Marion. Wouldn't that be interesting if he was Harold and I was Marion...
Anyway. Tryouts are tomorrow and Thursday. I can't wait!
7th period I talked to Dan like old times.

JANUARY 2nd, 1993
Saturday. 1 more day till school. Sigh. Is it an A or B day? Sigh.
Today we MAY go see Aladdin with the movie money Aimee got us.
~~~~~~~~~~~
We saw Aladdin (me and Kath) and I liked it as much as the first time. Mom and Dad saw A Few Good Men and it ran late so Kath and I decided to play video games in the lobby. I spotted Lindsay Phillips. I looked at a plaque on the wall hoping she'd notice me first (this way if they don't notice (or don't want to) I don't notice them). She did and ran to me arms out wide exclaiming "Jess!" I didn't know if it was a joke so I stood still. She hugged me so I hugged back. She asked how Florida was and that she got my postcard. At the "arcade" we saw Carrie Anderson. Lindsay asked what movie I'd seen. I said Aladdin. She said me to, her 3rd time. I said my 2nd. Then they proceeded to tell me about last night (when Lindsay had slept over Carrie's), how Carrie's little brother had thrown a Sprite-filled cup the thought was empty in his own face. When I didn't laugh to hard, Lindsay asked what was wrong. I said nothing. Apparently she likes me better than I thought she did.
JANUARY 2nd, 1994
Took GIRL home and took Kath to Baton. Pom-Pom starts again soon. Next week, I think. Another year. Ski Club should start anyday now. I get to use my own (Aunt Vicki's) skis. School (stress) tomorrow. Sigh.
JANUARY 2nd, 1995
I spoke to Jason Ribs (kinda). He said "Is Tiffany Gates arrogant?" I said, "YES!" (Corey wasn't there.) "She's everything bad!" He was listening in on Amy Church and me. During Senior Choir, he slept at my feet (by Claire and Brian Hoke) and heard (I'm sure) me and Jenni talking. (We didn't say anything special.)
Today half the school was absent. (It's actually a holiday) I talked to Dan in 7th period, he seems back to normal. He promised to take me to Chicago in the year 2010.
Today I caught BOY's eye a few times. When Holly S. patted me on the arm, he said "Hey, don't touch her there!" I feel something weird with him. Maybe...YEAH RIGHT!
JANUARY 2nd, 1997
Holy changes in my life!
1) Me, Katie and Julie went to Phil Navratil's (of Chuck E. Cheese fame) party where there was lots of drinking. But Scott was there and his flirting gets more sincere every time I see him.
2) Chris and I have been thinking about taking a break and today we decided that when he leaves, we'll do so.
3) Me and Sharon spent New Year's Eve and Don Debiase's party. The weirdest thing happened. The second I walked in, I had BOY's undivided attention. And the flirting wasn't eased into, it was head first! He left for another party, but not before holding my hand firmly as he said good-bye to everyone. Then he squeezed it and left. I've spent the last few days wondering WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!
4) I got a second job - at Lone Star. Me and Sharon (who went as far as making out w/BOY) are hoping to go out with them on Friday because BOY leaves for the army on Saturday.
Saturday. 1 more day till school. Sigh. Is it an A or B day? Sigh.

JANUARY 1st 1993, 1994, 1995
JANUARY 1st, 1993
New Year's Day. Kelly, Cheryl, and Rick came over. We played Where in the world is Carmen Sandiago? and Super Mario World on GameBoy. I saw an ad on TV for a video game I REALLY want. Problem is it's for Sega. It's a dolphin game, to! The first in history had to be a Sega! It's called Ecco the Dolphin. Maybe Holly G.'ll by it. Then we went to Kathy Anns (mom's cousin) there were so many kids and so much smoke! I watched Beauty and the Beast downstairs (honestly, what do people see in that movie? It's boring! I like Aladdin) and upstairs I watched one of my favorites, Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead.
JANUARY 1st, 1994
Last night I talked w/GIRL till past midnight. When I got on, it was 1993, when I got off, it was 94.
We went to Cousin Kelly's. We played "Dream Phone" "Slumber Party" "Mall Madness" "Saved by the Bell" and "Ask Zandar".
GIRL is going to sleepover tonight. We have to talk to BOY. About the talent show. It's going to be hard, but I have to think of myself, to.
When we were over GIRL's, I was always trying to get BOY to hold little Kara. At first, he said no, she'll pee, and just joked. But later, when he saw how much I liked the baby, he started playing with her and talking baby talk. Before Kara's naptime, she gave us all little kisses. When she kissed BOY's cheek it was so cute. He was kinda embarassed.
When we watched my scene in The Good Doctor, GIRL sobbed over BOY while BOY threw cookies at me. So I jumped on his lap and stuffed one down his shirt. I hit his head accidentally. So when he complained of pain I knew wasn't there, I patted him and said, "Aww!"
I know he likes me, the next step is to get him to either A) ask me out B) kiss me C) both. Preferably C). Maybe I SHOULD make the first move like GIRL says. Like when he tells me how I don't like to be touched, I can just go and kiss him to prove him wrong. Sigh.
If BOY and I ever get our "relationship" off the ground, how long will it last? Ben said he went out with Lisa Sanford last year and they didn't do anything.
GIRL came over and we called BOY. He was disappointed about "In My Life" because we'd practiced a lot for it. It feels so much better.
GIRL was mad at BOY for throwing stuff out the window. We pretended I was out of the room and GIRL talked to BOY.
"So what do you want to know about Jessica?"
"What do you mean?"
"Her favorite color, that stuff."
"Why would I want to know anything?"
"Well if you like her - you do like her, don't you?"
"I don't think that's any of your business."
"OK."
What does it mean?! BOY asked if GIRL got me a Les Miz book yet. I decide if I hint enough, he'll get it for me. He also kept playing "And I can live inside my...head" over and over again on his CD. It's his favorite part from "On My Own." The music I got doesn't include it.
JANUARY 1, 1995
She did remember (Holly) but I'd already made plans so we planned it for today.
On Friday I saw Corey's play at Greenbriar "Meet Me in St. Louis". I heard about tryouts there for The Secret Garden.
By the way, Matt and Aunt Kathleen are gone and school is tomorrow. :(
