All day Florence continued to ruin my life. When she was asked her name in art she replied by saying "mind your own business fat face." I had to try not to look shocked but how was I supposed to translate that? So I said "she said she is pleased to meet you."

"Well ok" miss North said confused, "but I asked her what her name was." I turned to Florence and said in Italian " tell her what your name is please! Stop being mean!!! Florence just laughed, took out some gum and chewed obnoxiously right in front of miss North. Miss North asked me to tell Florence to put her gum in the bin. So I did and I won't even tell you what Florence said. She is just a nasty piece of work. I don't know why she was put in our school if she hasn't a word of English.
