Mizuno Ami’s Journal

Today was a sort of break-through, but I don’t want to get too excited. I actually made conversation, sort of, considering I was so nervous, with a person who might be interested in talking to me for some reason other than the fact that I make good grades, or my mother is a doctor. Her name is Tsukino Usagi. She’s a bit goofy, and easily excitable, but she seems pretty sincere.She has this really cute black cat, called Luna, who has a crescent moon on her forehead. She’s the reason that we met. I found Luna on the way to cram school: she was separated from Tsukino-san, and as I was setting her right Tsukino-san approached, she said I was ‘funny’ because I had been talking so politely to the cat, and kept talking to me animatedly. I wasn’t quite sure what to make of her at first.

We walked by the Crown center, and she showed me the new ‘Sailor V’ video game, and the karaoke machines which have even managed to get the latest Aino Minako release already. I was afraid I would be late to Cram School, and that she was just wanting test scores, but she seems genuine even though I was probably being more than a little stand-offish. *shakes head* that was silly of me, I really would like to find some people who I can be friends with, because I’m me, not because I’m smart, or I study so much, and they just want me to help me with their homework, but I’m afraid to let myself hope.

She did give me a copy of Aino Minako’s new album (which is really good! I’m listening to it right now) and normally people who just want to use me don’t bother with things such as that. I should stop thinking about it and analyzing every little thing about the situation and go to bed.
