Dork Diaries: Tales from a Not-so-clear Confusion

3 - Happy Times for All

Thursday, March 4

Squeeee!!!(!!!!) I'm doing the Snoopy dance in my room because there's even more good news! Well, today was a good bad day... Or should i say bad good day? My day ended on a bad note but since the beginning of the day was good, i just might let it override all the bad things today!

The morning started out weirdly with me getting up waaay earlier than anyone else and before my alarm clock, which is very very VERY unusual.  So I decided to head to the kitchen first to see if I could snatch a bite before everybody else.  However, I heard a thump outside, and I glanced out the window.  The newspaper boy had tossed the paper to the porch.  I headed outside - like the good child I was - to go grab the newspaper for my dad.

"Thanks," I called out to the guy who biked away.  Bending down to pick up the newspaper at the front of our lawn, I turned back to see that the door had closed.  That was weird.  I pulled on the door handle.

...

Locked?!  No way!!!  That's impossible!  I was the first one up!  And-And...  I tried to jiggle the door handle, but it still didn't work.  I kept pulling the door handle and knocking like crazy.  "H-Hey, Brianna, Mom, Dad... Open the door!" I hissed, knocking.  "MOOM!  DAAAD!  BRIAAANA!"

Neighbors were coming out, and I was getting a bit worried.  After all, I was still in my pajamas.  Out in the open.  On the lawn.  In front of the whole neighborhood.

"HEYYY!!!  MOM, DAD, BRIANNA, OPEN THE DOOR!" I finally stepped back a bit and ran into the door.

And fell through the open doorway.  "What was that?!" I couldn't help but splutter as that bratty little sister of mine looked down at me with an angelic smile.  "Seriously?!  You horrible little-  AHHHH!" I chased after her, so ready to smack her with the rolled up newspaper in my hand.

"And that's how my horrid day began," I sighed, recalling my morning to my dear friends Zoe and Chloe as we headed to our first period.

"Man, that's harsh," Zoe noted, reaching into her locker to grab her new One Direction notebook.  "Hey, at least after school today, you have time to work on your class booth, right?  With," she winked, nudging Chloe and me.

"Ooh, yeah~" Chloe giggled, glancing at her perfectly manicured nails.  "I can't wait for our class, too!  We're working on the Spain part today.~"

"Ohayo, minna-san," a cheerful voice called out to us, and we turned to look at who it was.  "What were you guys up to?  Oh, that's...uh, One...One...Path?"

"Jadyn, good morning," Zoe grinned.  "And, haha, it's actually One Direction, the British boy band that is just simply amaaazing!!!" she gushed, fangirling.

"All right, we've got to head over to class first," Chloe waved goodbye as she and Zoe walked away.

"Where are you heading, Jadyn?" I asked her as I began to leave.

"Ah, well, I'm actually meeting up with my tour guide since he's getting me into the yearbook temporarily to do the exchange students page," she smiled, giving a peace sign as she jogged off.  "I'll see you later!"

"Yeah, see ya-"

Oh wait...isn't her tour guide...B-B-Brandon?!

SO UNCOOL!!!  ARGGHHH!!!

At least I paid attention to most of my classes.  Since we had a biology lab to do today, I, along with my partner - BRANDON~~~ - had to look under the microscope together at plant cells.  Not the most romantic date, but at least we were close enough to each other...
