liked it very much. Lesley bought mum a purse. Mum said she
liked it, but I think she was only trying to be nice because she
already has lots of purses.
Nana Edith
didn’t come over today, but Lesley’s friends came over after lunch,
so that spoiled the day. Lesley and Orange were being noisy again
this afternoon, but mum has bought me some ear plugs. At first, I
didn’t like the idea of putting anything in my ears, but I watched
a video on YouTube which showed how to put them in without damaging
your ears. They feel strange, but are really good. I couldn’t hear
a sound from Lesley’s bedroom once I had them in. I might take them
with me to school, and put them in while I am in the cafeteria.
I managed to
get my history homework finished. It took me hours. I wrote five
sides.

Happy birthday
to me. My best present today was Edith not coming over. Seems that
it was my fault Jamie hadn’t bought me a present because I hadn’t
told him what I wanted. We go through this every birthday, and at
Christmas. Unless you specifically tell him what you would like,
you will get nothing. To be fair, he always makes sure he tells
everyone exactly what he wants for his birthday and Christmas. I
got a jumper and flowers from Andrew, and a purse from Lesley. I
did eventually get a card from Jamie. It looked as though he had
wiped the floor with it, but it’s the thought that counts.
I’m not looking
forward to tomorrow. If things don’t improve this week I am going
to make an appointment to see the headmaster.

I handed my
history homework in first thing this morning. We had to leave it in
the teacher’s pigeon hole. He said he will have it marked in time
for tomorrow’s lesson. I think I will get a good mark because I
spent hours on it, and have written everything I could find on the
Industrial Revolution.
After lunch,
Stephen Mason gave me a folded piece of paper. He told me Mr Avery
had said I had to take it to the reception desk. I had to run
because the next lesson started five minutes later. When I handed
it to the lady in reception, she read it, shook her head, and then
gave it back to me. On the paper it said ’I’m a Prat’. I was five
minutes late getting to my next lesson, so I was told off by the
French teacher. Stephen Mason was sitting at the back of the
classroom laughing.
The maths
teacher had a go at me again today because I didn’t show any
working out for the equations he had given us to do in class. I got
them all correct. After dinner tonight I looked on the Internet to
see what I could find out about solving equations. I found a number
of different methods which detailed the steps involved. I tried to
follow them, but I got totally lost. I don’t see why I should have
to change the way I work when my method is quicker.

Today was the
first day of the school run. The traffic was terrible, and it is
going to cost a small fortune in petrol. Andrew said I should make
Jamie go on the bus. He said it was stupid not to use the free bus
pass. Doesn’t he realise I know all of that. Does he think I am
doing this for the good of my health? I told him about the boys who
have been picking on Jamie on the bus. I told him about Jamie
walking home in the rain last Friday. Andrew shrugged it off, and
said I was making too much of it.
I offered to
take Lesley with us in the car, but she didn’t want to know. Jamie
didn't speak all the way to school. I tried to make conversation,
but he ignored me. I didn’t get so much as a grunt out of him not
even when I asked him about his model trams. There are lots of
parents dropping off kids at that time, so I was forced to park a
couple of streets away from the school gates. Instead of a thank
you, and a kiss goodbye, Jamie complained because I had parked so
far away.
I told Jamie I
would stand by the school gates after school. I didn’t want him to
panic if he
liked it, but I think she was only trying to be nice because she
already has lots of purses.
