18th November 1984 (Sunday)

I did absolutely nothing today, which was stupid.  My school exams are coming up next week and I need to do a great deal of study if I plan to pass.  I'm also a long way behind with my Maths homework.

Karina rang me this morning at 9:15 and I was still asleep.  She rang to tell me she got a letter from Eric.  I'm happy for her because she likes Eric quite a lot.  She also asked my how my piano exam went.  I can't wait to get the results back even though I'm sure they'll disappoint me.  Grandma also rang to see how I got on.  So many people asked me how I went at the dance last night.  I was amazed!  They all knew because Mum told them about it when she tried to get me to play for them.  I can't wait to see Paul O'L tomorrow.  He went to the Jamberoo dance and was going to meet his cousin's best friend there.  He's partnering her for their school formal.  I hope she wasn't too nice.

I don't know when I'll see Brad again.  I hope it's soon.  I wish he was interested in me.  He likes Sandy Barry who is one or two years older than him  His birthday is the 26th May.  This year, on that day, I had a very strange feeling all day.  When I saw the date on the calendar it seemed to be a very special date for some reason.  I found out later that it's Brad's birth date.  I'm not sure if that's the 'special thing' or not.  It seemed to be something of the future, like my wedding day or something.

The only constructive thing I did today was mow the lawn (in my togs of course).  I need a tan desperately!
