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.
