I always had the idea that I would not be loved.
The count was to leave this morning at ten o'clock, but he stayed because yesterday I said:
Since Monday I have written nothing, but I believe I remember everything.
At two o'clock the omnibus that brought us carries us away; I look right and left so as not to lose an instant of Spa. What I shall miss most are the...
I visited neither zoological gardens nor museum -- that is too tedious. I went to visit the King's stables, but I find only fifteen horses; the other...
I have ordered another parasol, a dagger one — the one from Dupuis is lost. I do not regret it; it never pleased me. The one from Lafo will have a...
We go with them to the baths (grey dress, black Brussels hat -- truly English and very good -- not bad) yellow boots; terrible wind, they say it is...
I am reviving; I am well, thank God.
On foot, to the races, with peasants, through sand, on foot, to the races! I kept saying -- or sighing -- the whole time, through my tears.
I do not know why, but they were saying he had broken his arm.
I lunch with Maman at the Kursaal: grey dress, yellow boots. The yellow ones are the Hamiltons, the black the Blackprinces.
"Yes," I answered, and forgot.
By two o'clock everything is done and I go with the Tamancheffs to the pier (I do not know how to spell this word); there I see no one. We go on to...
It is cold; I put on the grey dress. The Tamancheffs come and we all go to the pier.
With my aunt to dine at the Hotel de la Plage; I put on my white dress and we go to join our people and the Tamancheffs at the Cercle des Bains.
I forgot to say that yesterday I went into town several times and met this princess, and even once Doria. I turned my head away because I was in the...
I have my hair down my back; brown dress and hat. We go to the pier -- nothing of note. Little Labanoff is there, and as we return she was walking...
Then, after a hesitation, I spoke to her about the Duke. She has seen him, and also his wife. She is not at all pretty, but ==she is very wild==....
Maman told my aunt last evening, ending thus: "==Moussia must be delighted; yesterday they chased after her and stared at her truly to the point of...
The ocean is comparatively calm; ==I enjoy my bath==. Before entering the water, Florence tells me things about the English royal family, and then...
"==When will this Doria pay attention!=="
Plobster poses the whole time before us, and I cannot see him without laughing. He gesticulates like Paparigopoulos. The moment I see his long nose...
Maman does not leave Paul alone for a minute; everywhere he follows her.
Maman now says the Plobster from the Hotel de France is not him.
Basilewsky, at the moment we were rising from the lunch table, comes with us to our rooms. Basilevitch, seeing him at ours, comes running, decked out...
I hope I shall see those dear, longed-for places again. Now I go to London so as not to melt away in Nice.
The count also comes, whom I had ordered yesterday to find out the name of the very pale Englishman. Well, the very pale Englishman is none other...
I make them beg me to come to dinner, but I yield, and: In a great storm-wind That lifted our skirts, We went to the Plage While it rained. My aunt...
Since the morning I am gay and lively. The Fosters and Merjeewsky come. I take Florence and we go to the pier. Ah! I must not forget more verses by...
I rise at half past nine, and while I dress they tell me -- according to the charming custom of the house -- that I am late, that the boat is about...
They take us to the Tower of London, which we visit and about which it is useless for me to speak. I shall say, however, that I found nearly...
I ordered a grey ==waterproof==, a parasol with medallion and dagger, and I bought a riding crop.
I have fittings at Paole's and at Wolmershausen's, where I order yet another costume. Then we wander again by carriage.
I had dreamed I was losing a tooth; I shall look up the exact date of that dream.
Such a quantity of felt hats please me that, already having two, I want to buy still more. From two to five we stroll, and at six go home. Foster...
Lise is good, sincere and kind; everything I shall say will be principally about Helene -- she does nothing but repeat.
I spent Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday until four o'clock at the Howards'; I wrote nothing while there and today here I am in Paris, so I shall take all...
