Fairy-tale.

Jaime stood up. “Well this isn’t helping. Nellie, report?” Nellie stood up. The spying was doing so well! Now all she needed to do was pass on this false information and they’d let her go. Her heart sank. The rebels would never let her go. She’d have to spy forever. She stood up and gave the report. This little idea came in the wee smalls of morning. Don’t you just hate it when that happens? A perfectly good 3 am to sleep through, and I go and have an idea and wake up. It’s enough to make you cry. There I go, without an intro. My name is Elspeth and I am addicted to sarcasm. Hi Elspeth. With a name like that, you’d reckon my parents were bad spellers, or I did, anyway. In fact, they are fantasy nuts, and it is from a book called Obernewtyn, Isobelle Carmody. The last in the series just came out in fact. I haven’t read it yet. I go through books like toilet paper, which isn’t the most formal of similes, but there you go. Today at school, I had random trouble again. This is what I call people I don’t know coming up and irritating me. This is apparently because I am famous, but I don’t know why. Today it was some yr 12 asking if I was making drugs in the toilets, and whether I’d give her a deal. How she knew my name, and why the question I’ll never know. My sister Serenity is in one of her moods. She just flairs up and niggles until I want to bite or kill her. I just want to scream and scream until she stops!! Sorry about the rant, but I needed it. She just… I don’t know. The swimming carnival is coming up. I’m not fast, but I’ll still enter all the races I can. Last year I went so slow in the 200m that the houses stopped yelling for the houses and start yelling for me. My mission now is to find out who started it and why. Also, to find my spare glasses. Amnesty meeting today, but it was only letter writing and I’m banned from that as my handwriting is so terrible. That’s why I’m writing this via computer. I also managed to spill 25ml of cordial down my side. I love to write, but it seems so much good has already been written that I can’t match it. I love quotes, such as: “He could think in italics. Such people need watching.” -Terry Prattchet. I am officially crazy, and odd, but at least I’m me, and not mean because I think I have to be. I know people (some who were originally Randoms) who feel this way. It sucks. This Diary now officially has a moral. Look out world, Elspeth is here AND SHE HAS A MORAL!! Sorry, I put a moral in it. I hate this on TV, but never that moral. It’s too important. I’m gone for today, Serenity wants the computer and is prepared to fight for it, and I would like to go through life with my hearing and eyesight intact. Til tomorrow.
