Quote #4
I can already feel myself getting fed up with boys and I haven't had anything to do with them yet. (1.55)
Oh, Georgia… Here, she is working on her dissatisfaction with romance before she's really had any romance to be dissatisfied with. Way to get a jump start on things, girl.
Quote #5
Absolutely no phone calls from anyone. I may as well be dead. (1.58)
Classic teen dissatisfaction right here for you, Shmoopers. Few things are worse to fourteen-year-olds than feeling like they're out of the social loop.
Quote #6
I have no friends. Not one single friend. No one has rung, no one has come round. Mum and Dad have gone to work, Libby is at playschool. I may as well be dead. (1.77)
Like the quote right before this one, but with a little more pizazz—Georgia gets the whole family involved with this one. Of course she's often dissatisfied by their presence, but their absence just adds to her misery here because she's flexible like that.
