My name's Tammy and I'm 15 years old.I've decided that this summer I am going to spend more time at the stables – sometimes I think the horses are the only ones who get what I'm all about. If only moody Martin wasn't always there, but I suppose I can put up with him. Just. He's not so bad really.My other resolution is to do something that is not a) embarrassing or b) boring!If Dad would let me have an actual, real LIFE instead of working in the shop, I just might surprise everyone. Even me.

'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...

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…
