Even me.
  • Hazel Wood Girl

    Judy May

    (O'Brien Press, Sept. 14, 2007)
    'DAY ONE I have NO friends. None. Count them. It's OFFICIAL since last night, and I can't even feel angry any more these days. I don't feel anything now, it's like having pins-and-needles in the places where I used to feel happy or sad. I mean, God, you'd think that I could make one person like me after six months here. I can't believe people are still annoyed that I had lunch with Danny from Chemistry when I didn't even know he was that girl's boyfriend for the last million years. I think they just like having someone easy to hate.' Ever since her family moved to the country to live on a farm, Poppy's been miserable. She has a new life and a new school but unfortunately no new friends. Luckily, that's all about to change...

    Welcome to Lemony’s summer: Lights, camera, action!My name’s Lemony, I’m nearly 15, and this is my journal. Things I like: my best friend Ro, Nick Collins, chinchillas, reading and hanging out with friends. Things I DON’T like: my glasses, the way I talk too fast around boys … I’m too tall and too geeky, and I spend FAR too much time sitting around dreaming my life away.But with a movie being filmed in town, it looks like real life might be getting just as exciting as daydreams – even if they only hire me to make cups of tea while my cool friends get to swan around in front of the camera.Anyway, Ro, my brother Paul and I are going to have fun on the film set – as long as boring Stephen Brown doesn’t try to hang out with us…
