Dearest Diary,

As the month of June comes to a close, it became necessary to exercise my skills in the kitchen. Tonight's courses consisted of steak, breads, and all the necessary vegetables. I cannot help but admit its success. I had only one request of those in attendance and that was to not wait until the close of the month to hold such dinner parties. Therefore, I have begun already to plan the next. And I wonder who ought to be on the guest list. Would that there were a gentleman or two to invite. Unfortunately, there is not even one at present. Nevertheless, the next shall be very soon indeed. And do notify me immediately if your carrier pigeon has not arrived with your invitation. I shall issue such invitations on the morrow...

Dearest Diary,

It appears that my motivation extends into the early morning hours. I have for several days now been observant of the sort of things I have dined on and today was a day of a rather vigourous sort of recreation. No matter how painful such activity can be in its lingering hours, I am devoted to the sport and intend to repeat it soon. I am exceedingly grateful for the friend who is journeying alongside me. At the journey's end I fully expect a waiting husband. Perhaps it is the wrong sort of attitude with which to approach the topic, but I am nevertheless hopeful of that precise consequence.

Unfortunately there is still much for me to accomplish this evening. I must bid you goodnight that I might retire before dawn. Until tomorrow...

Dearest Diary,

My waking hours are far exceeding my expectations this evening. However, there is much excitement within me. When one makes up one's mind toward a very great aspiration, it is rather difficult to settle long enough to rest for the night. I cannot bring myself to do it. Nevertheless, I have retired to my quarters for the evening and will commence resting as quickly as I can succomb to it.

The reasons for such excitement are not a revelation anew for I had decided to take such measures yesterday. And in fact even longer ago. Unfortunately, I lacked the discipline to put it into practice. Perhaps I am being somewhat vague in my description, but I am certain you are not wanting in understanding. For I very much long to alter my figure for the better. A maiden of significant age cannot neglect such attention. And after not three days on smaller courses and more frequent dinners, I am pleased to note that my riding trousers have loosened a very small bit. This is encouragement of the greatest kind.

I shall begin preparations for additional sport on the morrow...

Dearest Diary,

Today was the final lecture at the University for a fortnight. I will soon be journeying to the coastal regions to resume such activity but for the moment I am again on holiday. Tis unfortunate therefore that Lady Pigeon has been in a dour mood as of late. Such behaviour puzzles me exceedingly, but I've little to change her disposition. She is decidedly grumpy.

I am again seeking recreation in various forms as well as hindering my appetite that I might see changes in my figure. I am eager to gloat on a successful first day. Perhaps I might achieve the same on the morrow...
