The Diary of a College ir lbeaves from the Diary of Miss lvliuuziuucr LvNNIs PIARRISON, otherwise known as PEcc.v, 1913-19141 ONV in the world shall I begin you, my diary? I'm sure I don't know, for never before in my life have I attempted to keep such a thing. Nothing shall be hidden from you-everything I say, do or think shall be carefully written on your clean white face through all the days of this year, be they bright and glad or sad and blue. September 26tIl.-I arrived here on the eleven o'clock train this morning. By here l mean the Womans College of Riclnnond, Virginia. I was glad to be back, for lots of the old girls have returned also and already three of the Mu Phi Mu's, Edith, Betty and joy. The Mu Phi is my sorority, you know. XVe tried to get Miss Baker to put us four into adjoining rooms, but she wouldnt Perhaps it is for the best after all, because the girl she has put me with seems to be a nice girl and very pretty. And just think, she knows a boy l know, such a dear boy, too. I clon't mind confessing to you, diary, that once we had a terrible case. but you know summer cases donit last long. He went back to college and so did I, and linally both of us stopped writing. because he got mad with me for not writing oftener, and wrote me Z1 scorching letter. I, in turn. wrote one back and told him I was sorry. but if he didn't like it he didn't have to write to me again, as I wasn't aware that l had begged him to write in the lirst place. Afterwards I rather regretted writing that letter, for sure enough I had treated him rather shabby, because he used to write me every day of his life and when I lirst came to College I did the same, only l never wrote such mushy ones as he did. That was three years ago, when I Iirst came to College, and I haven't heard a line from him since. Let me see, he couldn't have been more than twenty then and I was only lifteen. They were a boy's letters-not a man's. I just wonder how he would write now? I wonder how he looks? Are his eyes as blue and his hair as light as ever? In all probability he has forgotten the gray-eyed slip of a girl named Peggy whom he thought he liked long ago. Light bell rang centuries ago, and Patty tthat's my new roommatej has asked me if I am ever going to stop writing. She has linished all her letters and is getting ready for bed. Goodness! she says it's ten minutes past twelve. Wie all had a feast in here tonight, for each girl brought a box from home with her. I can tell you I certainly did stuff. We all expect to be ill in the morning, but- we should worry -we had a good time anyway. I positively can't write any more tonight, I am too sleepy. ' September 30th.-Today is Saturday. Lots of new girls Came today and we also have three new teachers. lt makes me real homesick to think of studying, besides I've got to work so hard this year. Oh, well, such is life. Vtfe went on Broad Street today-that's 'rllli street of Richmond. l saw three boys that I knew and they followed us into the l ivc and Ten Cent Store and l introduced Patty. Bill Parkens seemed to go crazy over her, and asked for next receiving night. I talked to the other two boys, meanwhile keeping 99
