*~Ada Michellano~* Part Two

Hey, it's Ada again. Did you miss me? Of course you did.1

So, it’s Saturday, and I am being the world’s most socially hopeless human being yet again. I mean, it’s not like I haven’t got any friends. Back in Italy, where I come from (yeah, like you didn’t guess, because the name Michellano is so Australian) I have loads of friends, like Amelie (French, not Italian, but still my friend) who’s dad was some important French government person. She was my best friend. But then I moved here 2

(Italy was too hot for my mum, who’s English, but she really likes Australia). 3

But here, despite having gone to Rocky Hollow High for three months, the closest I’ve got to a friend was when in buddy class some little Year Three kid came up to me and gave me a hug. Yeah, I’m that desperate. Ellen Harper WAS my friend, then she went around and told everybody that I like Tim Cooper (yes, EVERYBODY, I’m not just being dramatic) and I’m all by myself now (I didn’t even get to ditch Ellen, she latched on to another new girl who had no idea how evil she is). So I basically sit on the grass at lunch by myself, except for the time that Year Three kid that hugged me that one time came up to me and sat next to me but I moved away from her and she started bawling. It’s not like I didn’t try talking to her, but all she could talk about was how awesome The Saddle Club is and how much she loves her new Barbie doll she got yesterday or something, two things I got over when I was about half her age. (I abandoned Barbie when I was four because I realized that her hair WASN’T actually never ending, it DID end, and I gave her to my dog to chew up and never touched a Barbie ever again. Not even the one with brown hair, who I thought was awesome cuz she looked so much like me. It’s a shame the way these things work out.4

Something weird happened last night on MSN. One of the popular group, or so called, since most of the people at our school don’t like them much, invited me to go to the beach with her and two of her friends who are also from the Dark Side. Two things could happen: one, I go, it’s awesome and I get to hang out with the popular girls and finally get some friends, or two, it’s a set up and when I get there (to the beach) they all dump seaweed all over me and run off, leaving me looking like an idiot and smelling like seaweed (and Australian seaweed is foul, believe me). 5

Life is weird when it throws stuff like this at you. It’s like some random giving you a hug in the park for no reason, you don’t know whether they did it for a totally innocent reason or if they stuck a ‘KICK ME’ sign to your butt, and all you can do is hope that they did it for the innocent reason as opposed to the other (and believe me, it’s happened to me before, and I walked all the way home with a ‘KICK ME’ sign stuck to my butt. Probably the most embarrassing day of my life.6

Sorry, I gotta scoot, I’m busy being a loner for the rest of the day answering prank calls that are meant for my sister then refusing to give her the phone. 7

See ya.8
