5 Wednesday Holiday
Went
to Fairview, met Dave and got the album 'T-Rex Electric
Warrior'. Met Ralph then Lesley, looked at posters,
took pictures. On the bus talked to Grace Roberts and
her friend. nite- Don and Lesley came here, they had
a big fight. Lesley threw a hammer, cried, the whole
bit. They made up, I burnt a candle and melted a dart.

6 Thursday Holiday
Walked
to Lesley's, Judy there. Drew a picture like the front
of the T-Rex album and hung it up. We went to the D.Q.
and Ralph came. We all went back to Lesley's. I attacked
Ralph with an icecube, played a card game called 'Killer'
where a person who gets a certain card is the killer
and winks at others without being seen and "kills"
that person. Walked home. nite- walked to Judy's, she
and I had a pool game. Don and Lesley came, went to
the backroom and played 'Killer'. Went to the livingroom,
Don had a 100 dollar bill. Watched a movie about
teenagers, walked home.

7 Friday Holiday
Went
to Fairview, met Lesley and Sandi. Got new jeans and an
Ian Anderson poster. Played 'Killer' near Simpson's. Diane
came up. On the bus coming back it backfired twice and
scared us. nite- rode to Judy's, got a ride (Lesley, Don,
Diane, Judy, Sandi and I) to the Dorval Community Center.
Met Ralph, Dave, Danielle and
[Ralph's friend since at least Grade 6, and who was in
my Math and gym classes but I didn't know] Andy[McLelland. I never
dreamt he and I, along with Ralph, would be doing radio
11 years later]. Hit Ralph in the nose by mistake,
played 'Killer'. Judy went running out screaming because
she was wrong about where to get British money changed.
[I
didn't do anything on the Saturday or Sunday. It was now my
turn to be excluded by Lesley and Don, as Gillian and Alan
were now the favourites. It seems Lesley didn't like my friendship
with Dave and Ralph etc, finding them too immature at the
time, which may have been true, but things with the old group
had become gloomy. Though it hurt at the time, things would
turn out for the best...]
April
10 Monday Math-
talked, stomped on a old hard cake. Gym- I really forgot my
gym locker combination, took gym anyway. Lunch- Janet, Lesley
and I went out the door near Woodworking and had a smoke,
then sat under the stairs near Woodw., hit an apple around.
Art- out in the hall painting the eyes, nose and hair on the
6ft picture of myself. Chris T came with others (Metivier,
Melvin, Urquhart) [Don, a friend
of David Renwick in my Grade 7 class. He went on to join the
Pointe Claire fire department and saved a man's life later
on] and talked. Science-
at the back Chris T and I were doing face distorting and hand
tricks (eg- what's this-spider balling)[shades of Ren and Stimpy..]
47.
Gillian's house was beautiful. It was on Golf Avenue, so called
because it ran along one side of the Beaconsfield Golf Course.
The house itself was covered in wooden shingles, painted grey.
The livingroom was L-shaped, wood panelled, with hard wood floors.
At one end was a fire place. The front window was a 3 sided
bay one. Along one side were to entrances to an enclosed sun
porch. At the bottom of the stairs was the portrait of a great
aunt (?) of Gillian's, painted by Otto Dix (the ugliest woman
I have ever seen). Upstairs was a large study/TV room, and on
the door hung a sign with different types of LSD made to look
like flavours of ice cream. They also had a copy of 'The Whole
Earth Catalog'.
