Dear Diary,

The A9 party was a success (I guess, I didn’t notice Robert didn’t come to school). Angel was my partner (the rat). At 3:05 on the dot he left, when did we start the dancing? 3:05. Boy! I was burnt. I gitter buged with Richard Samboa, he’s very nice. The play was very good especially the love sceans. Oh god! why didn’t Andy ask me to dance??? Manuel???? went over Dorothy & Jimmies. Elaine & Henry were there we had a good time–all 4 of them are wonderful!!!!!

P.S. Everyone looked good!!!!! me too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. I danced with Joe, Manuel, Richard, Armando?

Dear Diary,

We had joint homeroom today & we got our A9 pins. We had co-ed dancing today in the Cafe. I found what Nefarious & Myopsis mean. Arthur Hernandez invited us girls to his party Friday. I have a chance to baby-sit with Ilene or go to the Little Theater. Packed some things.
