On The Train!

Theo and I are on our way home! We got up around four this morning and hopped on the train. It's about six now and we'll be theren in fourty-five minutes!
I called Gina and Roz to tell them I'm coming home and they were SUPER excited! we've decided we're going to surprise Victor! It's going to be SO much fun!

Packing!

Right now I'm packing to go home/bouncing off the walls *Ramona slams into stone wall, ouch*. You know I might acctually miss this place, I mean, it's pretty cool (once you get used to the scary dungeons and stuff). But I am glad to be going home, back to fun, comfort and FRIENDS!
Of course I'm also looking forward to sitting around the kitchen with Victor and eating ramen noodles! I've been here almost a year and I haven't been allowed to have ice cream for breakfast once! But all that's going to change... :)

Yippy yippy ya-ness

Guess what!!!! I'm going home! I am SO excited! Theo is here and he told me he had finally convinced Gran to give Vic back his job! Can life get any better? I submit that it cannot!

Not so much *yawn

Theo's coming! Theo's coming! Theo's coming! Finally another real human being! Apparently Gran is sending him up here to convince me to marry Orville (Like Theo would ever do that). When I spoke to him (there's a phone in this castle1 Who knew?) Theo sounded like he had something up his sleeve. I just hope it's a good something. I can't wait!

*yawn*

This is going to be the WORST summer vacation ever!Yeah, ok, at least I get a break (I almost didn't pass French). But I am REALLY, REALLY bored and Lonely. Plus the sea is WAY too cold to swim in. I sure hope next summer is a little better.

Sorry

I am so sorry I haven't written in months but I've been trying to survive my wretched new school. Contrary to mother's (but confirming my own) predictions I have no friends. Is that a good enough excuse?
No, I haven't seen Victor or heard from him either.But that is probably due to the fact that Gran has been reading my mail for the past ever. I just hope she hasn't send Vic any awful responses (assuming he's written). Thanks to Theo I've heard that Victor's dad has a new job and the family is okay (thank goodness). I am dying to hear from him but It may be quite awhile especially since I've just refused Orville for the billionth time. *Sigh* Am I giving up on Vic? No way!

Depressed

Theo left today. I'd almost forgotten how awful this castle was while he was here. I've been reading and rereading Victor's letters;I miss him SO much! I've tried emailing him but Gran disabled my account. I can't write to him either because my mail gets read by every servant in this castle. I can't stand it!
I also got a letter from Orville today. He told me he still loves me (gag!), Misses me (puke!) and offers to marry me (faint!). I am embarrassed to tell you this but I almost accepted him! I am totally lonely and I would give almost anything to get out of this place. But I still won't marry Orville!

Getting better

Gran sent Theo here to lecture me. But of course he hasn't and we have been having fun.Yesterday we played about 49 games of chess (Theo: 42. Me: 7). Then we went exploring in the woods and found a bunch of exotic butterflies. After that we went down on to the teeny pebbley beach. Theo also brought me a bunch of letters from Victor.
I miss Victor so much and I an so upset that I'm the reason his father was fired. Apparently things haven't been going so well since he had to leave, his dad can't find a job and Victor has had to change schools! I am so angry at Gran!
Theo also told me that Stella had her baby! Her name is Ramona Isabella Theodora and she is so cute. I got to see all the pictures, it made me want to go home SO badly.

The Last Straw!

I am going to hurt someone! I just found out that Gran has been intercepting my mail! Apparently she's been reading all my letters from Victor! Also Gran has fired Vic's dad! I mean just because his son has a crush on me! This is totally unfair!

Castle Legends

Maybe this castle isn't too bad after all. I was exploring all the rooms today and found this picture in one of the galleries. It's the Princess who was banished here first. Apparently she ditched the guy she had been engaged to and fell for a pirate! One night they tried to elope but were caught and the pirate was hanged.Then the Princess died. I wonder if they'll put a picture of me up when I wither away for want of love. I doubt it.

Get Me Out of Here!

I HATE, LOATHE AND DESPISE THIS CASTLE! Everything here is moldy and gross. The servants are boring and surly and most of all I hate my new school!

Creepy Castle

This has got to be the creepiest castle in the whole country! Every single floor board creaks and the air smells moldy. I swear in the tower there is dried blood all over the floor! In the dungeons there are millions of rusty chains and even my bed has a chain next to it. This totally stinks!

New House

I'm here. This castle is pretty creepy; it was built for a Princess back in the 1600's. She fell in love with a peasant and tried to marry him but her father caught them and sent her to live in this creepy castle. Sounds vaguely familiar doesn't it?

Packing

I'm mostly packed. I can't believe anyone would tell Gran that I happened to find out the dishwasher liked me! I mean this is a little extreme. I'm getting send off to the middle of now where to attend an ALL GIRLS SCHOOL! How am I going to survive?

Great! Not.

Well, if this doesn't take the cake! I finally get a boyfriend and someone (Theo!)has to go and tell Gran. Who is now shipping me off to another castle! This means a new school, no horses, and no Victor!
I am so MAD!

Awkward!

Things are getting a little weird around here, especially since Victor and I "got together." Theo keeps dropping snide hints and Mother keeps looking at me funny. Roz and Gina are still in shock. This is going to be REALLY hard to keep secret.

Stuff

I was in the kitchen this morning watching Victor wash the dishes. I was looking at the necklace I got in the letter.
"I wonder if it's real diamonds." I said.
"It's just glass I could never afford diamonds." Said Victor.
I was totally stunned, All the romantic letters were from Victor?
"Vic," I said, "you sent all those letters?"
His ears turned purple, "Yeah." He mumbled.

I called Gina and Roz later. They were just as stunned as I was. Of Course all Theo said was, "Yeah, I know."
I told Stella and she was pretty excited. But I haven't and don't intend to tell Gran or my parents.

Is this exciting or what?

Theo's Post

Theo: (in his most annoying voice) I know who those letters are from!
Me: Look, just get out!
Theo: You'll never guess.
Me: (in same annoying sing-song voice) I don't really care.
Theo: Yes you do!
Me: Go away!
Theo: (Not in sing-song voice0 Fine, I'll take the secret to my grave.
Me: You do that.
Theo leaves.
Me: Stupid Brother.
Theo: (sticking his head in) I heard that.
I throw a pillow at him.
