—Coco Chanel Monday, March 10, 7:22 a.m.At the kitchen tableEating funnel cakes(For breakfast)A bad sign I have a bad feeling about this morning, and it’s all because Dad made funnel cakes for breakfast. May reminded him it’s what we ate when we went to the circus last year, which made me think, (a) Who serves circus food to their children for what is widely considered to be the most important meal of the day? And (b) When everyone at school finds out I’m going out with Matt, will I be talked about like some freaky Big Top attraction? One thing’s for sure: I’m not ready to face the crowds. 8:52 p.m. No one said anything. All day, during school, I kept waiting for it. I was sure that one minute, everything would be totally normal, kids going about their day, and in the next, there would be an information explosion. I pictured students at Faraway Middle examining bits and pieces of my story like shrapnel, and adding their own opinions to the mix. As weird as that sounds, I think part of me might have preferred it like that.
What do You think about Love Or Something Like It?
