Dearest Diary,
It has been a most successful two days. Both were spent at the schoolhouse in eager anticipation of the coming lessons, however the evening hours held more intrigue. Last evening as I took leave of the schoolhouse, I accompanied a friend to a favourite eatery and was instantly engaged in conversation with the gentleman who prepared the delectable desserts. He was quite generous with his smile and only turned his attention away with another patron required his assistance. After aiding the others he would once again don the smile I had grown quite fond of. Unfortunately, little became of the fascinating encounter, however I promise to return quite soon.
As for this evening, I attended a Dinner which counted among its party a few attendees considered to be of high talent, though ridiculous in nature. I was pleasantly surprised by the company. Some awkward moments ensued but in all it was a delightful Dinner. The event was followed by a brisk walk beside the marina with the eldest Miss Lindsay. As we strolled and talked, we were seemingly adored by many gentlemen who passed by. Would that one of us had a poor sense of fashion or elegance, I might understand the number of smiles we received. Instead however, we found that the simple gesture on our part incurred a most alarming response. A certain Mr. Carter insists that a lady's smile is a most bewitching power. I took it upon myself to include the bat of a single eye.
At such a discovery, be it ever so small, I am eager to engage in a most anticipated tradition (I've spoken of it many times before) on the morrow...
