Jan 18 - Wednesday
Exams in English and Lit, Religion were not so bad but History horrible! Angela Vincenzi saw Fabian last night. Lucky her and he wrote a little autograph for me as well as the Fabulous Four. I don’t know why but I want to meet Fabian so much. I didn’t care about the other singers who came here but Fabian is so special. Of course, these are just my wild imaginations again but again...I wish! I found that Inger left me a lovely picture of hers in my wallet. She’s just very very...Talked with Mercy over the phone this evening. This whole world is full of such wonderful people. Talked with Fr. Reuter today. He blessed my St. Anthony medal. I love everybody!
Jan. 19 - Thursday
It was simply freezing this morning! In fact these past few days have been COLD. Everybody goes around in sweaters. The temperature this morning was least 58 degrees something. I got my report card today its much better than I expected phew! At least I passed in geometry. I still hope to see Fabian. I hope, hope, hope. Gosh wouldn’t it be simply wonderful! I would like to talk to him not just see him, but, oh well, I’ll keep hoping. I went to eat dinner at D’Mark’s this evening with Mom and Dad. They were playing"Are You Lonesome Tonight" by Elvis Presley on the radio. Simply dreamy.
Jan. 20 - Friday
Today we gave our J-S Prom invitations to the Seniors. The invitations were all very nice and original. I’m so very mad at myself. Angela told me today that they’re going to the Fabian Show tomorrow night and that if I had told her she would’ve gotten a ticket for me so that I could go with them because they’re going to see Fabian after the show. Some people have all the luck! I just pray and have the slim hope that some ticket will pop out for me. I’ve just got to meet Fabian. Went to practice at Tita Maitos house this evening. Had a wonderful time practicing "Pichi" with Mikki and Rosie.
Jan.21 - Saturday
"More things are brought by prayer than this world dreams of." - the most true quotation in the world. I prayed so hard last night that Angela might find a ticket for me for the Fabian Show and I GOT IT!! Fabian is simply wonderful! He’s so handsome and so simpatico. I didn’t meet him personally, this is still a wish, but Im praying again although the chances are slimmer this time but I hope. My heart was beating so fast when he was singing. I wonder if its possible to like a boy whom you’ve never met personally. Anyway, Angela says he’s very nice and how I want to meet him. Angela is tops. If it weren’t for her....oh Tiger (Fabian), you’re so wonderful1
Jan. 22- Sunday
I went to Mass at San Pancracio’s this morning. Mercy and family were there. Mercy and I went to the ANC after Mass. There were many people there including Nacho. Marina says she didn’t like the Fabian show yesterday. She wasted her money. Oh well some people just don’t appreciate the nice things in life and Fabian is the nicest there is. Nobody seems to like Fabian much but they haven’t even seen his show. Mercy and I ate lunch at the ANC and then we came back home. Mercy says she’s broken with Mari. Says he’s grown different and FAT! Ugh. She also says that Cosme is very nice and when Cosme turns on his charm POW! I wonder what’s wrong with Nacho? He’s strange and different and he can’t look me straight in the face?? (Everybody is changing.)Angela V called tonight. She says Fabian stays until Wednesday and not to give up hope. Don’t worry I won’t.
