Journal One
Entry 1
Dear Journal,
Tonight is my slumber party. I think that I have some really strange
friends. It’s kind of like a famous
quote I once read which is: “Some friends you think you know real well, you
don’t even have a clue about what they’re like.” I do think that’s true, but I think that you
do have a clue about what your friends are like. Anyway my point is I think I have some of the
best friends in the world anyone could ask for although some of them are a
little crazy!
Entry 2
Dear Journal,
Tomorrow is my birthday, but last
night I opened all my presents even from my Mom and Dad, because it was my
slumber party so I’m not going to get to do anything special except turn
12. My slumber party was awesome I got
tons of money, 2 journals, 4 books, a necklace with charms on it, 3 bookmarks,
$25 check from my Dad, so I can get my TLC CD.
I got it today, which was pretty cool.
My best friend Louise got to come and spend the weekend with me. You see, last year she moved away and we
stayed in touch. So the first time I
wrote her when she wrote me back, she gave me her phone number so I called her
and invited her to my birthday, but she would be able to spend the weekend so
that’s why she’s here. The sad part is, tomorrow we have to take her back. See,
we’re going to meet her Mom half way. I
wish she could stay here with me forever, but she can’t. We promised to stay in touch. I might go over to her house sometime or she
might come back over here sometime.
Entry 3
Dear Journal,
Today is my birthday. I’m kind of glad Mom didn’t make Louise and I
go to church because Louise didn’t have anything dressy to wear. So Louise and I got to stay until my Mom got
back. Then, we all got ready to meet
Louise’s Mom. When we finally got in the
van, Louise and I read some of the books I got for my birthday. Then when we met Louise’s Mom, Louise goes, “

Dear Journal,
There are really only 2 boys that I
like. One goes to my church. Luckily, none of my friends at school go to
my church so they don’t know him. His
name is Dan. The other guy I like is
Jonathan Taylor Thomas, for short J.T.T.
He’s a famous movie star. The
last boyfriend I had was

Dear Journal,
There’s this girl I really like as a
friend. Her name is April Folds. She goes out with
Entry 6
Dear Journal,
Today I found out Amy’s grandfather
died, and when I called her she was crying so I let her go. Then I called Alicia, and asked her to be
extra nice to Amy if she sees her if she sees her any. About an hour later I called Amy back and I
tried to cheer her up. It worked a
little bit. Then she had to go eat
dinner so she had to go. Then, I called
a couple of other people and asked them if they would be extra nice to Amy, and
they all said, “Sure.” Of course. I know this week Amy
is going to be really stressed out. I feel
so sorry for her. I wish there were
something I could do for her besides pray, but that’s about it. At my slumber party we played Ouija and we contacted this girl named Pamela, and we asked
if she was an evil spirit and she said yes.
You know how some people say when you play Ouija;
you can connect a spirit with our world.
Well, ever since we contacted Pamela, bad stuff has been happening. I
mean Mary’s cat died, Amy’s grandfather died.
That is it so far, so all this stuff might be Pamela’s doing. So this weekend we’re supposedly going to set
Pamela to rest.
Entry 7
Dear Journal,
Mary and I are probably going to set
Pamela to rest, but before we do. We’re
going to ask her if she made Anna’s grandfather die, and if she made Mary’s cat
die. So if she did we’re going to put
her to rest, and that will be the last time I ever play Ouija. The reason why is because I found out it’s
against our religion. Mary said that she
will probably come over this weekend, but I still don’t know. Mary can’t come over this weekend, because
she’s going
Entry 8
Dear Journal,
Today Alexander called me. He’s a guy that I like as a friend, but he
likes me as a girlfriend. I mean I like
him as a friend, but I’m just not ready for a relationship with him. I need
some time; you know what I mean.
Anyways, he called me (I had no idea how he got my phone number) and he
asked to the movies on Saturday. At
first I was going to say no, then I was going to say as a friend, but then I
changed my mind and said yes. I hope he
doesn’t get the wrong idea and think we go together, and tell everybody at
school that we do. I mean I only told
three friends, and I explained to them that I just want to be friend with
him. So I really hope he doesn’t get the
wrong idea and think we go together because we don’t because I just don’t like
him that way, I only like him as a friend.
So on Monday I hope he doesn’t tell everybody that he
goes with me. I mean I only told
3 friends that he asked me to the movies and I explained to them that I just
want to be friends with him, so I hope he doesn’t tell all of his friends that
he goes with me.
Entry 9
Dear Journal,
Today I went to the movies with
Alexander and I was like really tense. I
mean that’s the first time in my life that I sat up straight during a whole
movie. It’s unbelievable. So anyway I practically begged Alicia to go
with me, and she said that if Rocky wasn’t going than she wasn’t going. So there I was, abandoned by my friends, and
alone with Alexander totally freaked. I
wish I only knew then what I know now. I
was totally relieved when the movie was over.
I jumped up from my seat, I thought about running to hurry up and get
out. Then I changed my mind. I was even
more relived when I got in the car. I
mean it’s not that the movie “Mr. Wrong” was bad, but it’s just that I was so nervous
and tense, especially since we were alone.
I just wish now that I had never even said a word to Alexander. Then he would have noticed me, and never
asked me to the movies. I mean of course
I like him as a friend, but not as a boyfriend.
Entry 10
Dear Journal,
Today when I went to church, I got
sung to for my birthday. Today was
really cool, because I’m old enough to be in Dan’s class, and Dan is the guy I
like. He can be an asshole sometimes,
but I think he’s really nice once you get to know him. He’s really nice if he’s in a good mood. I don’t understand how his little annoying
sister, Christy(sometimes a bitch) can be related to
him. She may be 10 years old, and
younger than my friends and I, but that doesn’t mean she can’t act her
age. I mean I know somebody else that’s
10 in the same grade as I, which is the sixth grade because she got to skip a
grade. Anyway, my point is Kristian acts mature like me and my friends, but Christy
doesn’t and they’re the same age, which is 10. While we were having Prayer Requests I added
my friend Amy to the Prayer Request and the preacher asked why and I said
because her grandfather died this past week and I was concerned about her
because she is my friend and I care about her and I don’t like it when she’s
sad.
Entry 11
Dear Journal,
Today I found out that everybody
thinks I go out with Alexander just because I went to the movies with him. I mean even Alexander thinks we do. So I wrote him a note that I just want to be
friends. When I first
found out about this rumor I was like, “Oh, crap.” This is what I was talking about on
Saturday. You know, about not knowing
what I know now, and that I’m going to regret it later on. Well, now I regret it because everybody
thinks I go out with him, which I don’t.
Anyway I asked all my friends to help stop the rumor which a lie. I just hope that I can get it to stop. I know for a fact who started it;
Alexander. I only told three people that
I was going to the movies with him, and they all promised they wouldn’t tell
anyone. The three people were Mary,
Hilary, and Alicia. I was going to tell
Amy, but I changed my mind, because she hates Alexander.
Entry 12
Dear Journal,
This morning my cat Rascal ate my
breakfast. Then, he hurt Tizzy, my
dog. She is a dachshund. Rascal never hurts Charlie, because Charlie
always beats Rascal up. Charlie is my
other dachshund, actually he’s my Dad’s dog. Charlie’s Tizzy’s father. Anyway, I told some people I don’t go out
with Alexander today. I asked my Mom if
I could call Louise, and she said, “Wait until the weekend, because it’s
cheaper,” and I said, “Okay.” When
Entry 13
Dear Journal,
Today I got my hair cut and
afterwards since we were at the mall my Mom and I walked around for a little
while. We went to Bookland
and I saw this book I wanted, but my Mom said for us to wait and come back
tomorrow with a $10 gift certificate I got from Bookland
for my birthday and use that. After
looking in the mirror I now wish that I had gotten my hair cut a little
shorter. I think there may be something
wrong with Tizzy. I am concerned about
her, because it’s like every time she moves her neck she cries we think Rascal,
our cat, may have been trying to play with her too much so we are going to try
and keep them apart for the time being.
Entry 14
Dear Journal,
Hey what’s up? Today I had forgotten that it was leap year,
and I’m the one that changes the date on the board. So I put that it was March first. Then, Mrs. Saucier screamed at me, because I
put the wrong date. I mean it’s not like
everyone’s going to die just because I put the wrong date on the board. I actually realized something today, I’m still in love with
