Diary of Lois Elaine Jelin: Entry One Hundred Twenty-Three

Entry One Hundred Twenty-Three

Monday Sat., June 2                        Weather marked as Clear.

Dear Diary,

Went to Beauty Salon & got my hair cut & etc.

Senior Prom. It was fine except—first of all I looked real cute. The other girl was Elaine (the girl Bob took to Lynns party) she’s real nice. We had a nice time at the Prom we left after 11:00 and when to a naughty 90 show which was naughty & to the Flamingo. Art (going home) infact all night he wouldn’t let up kissing that is. Then after we took Elaine home I pretended I was sleeping & Art petted. It was frightening & yet soothing. I’m all mixed up. I should have said something but I couldn’t. He started to un-zipper my dress so I pretend to wake-up. If possible—I’ll never go out with Art again—I’m afraid.

Dear Diary,

Went Horseback riding with T.T. after wards we ate & sang around a fire. Audreys father took us to Temple. He looks much different than I thought. I’m very sore from the idiotic horse I was riding it was ready for the glue factory. It was an experience I hope never to forget. My horse’s name was Teddy.

Went miniature golf with kids—Erwin and etc got home at 1:20. Decorated for G.A.A. Spread.
