Entry 288

February 1st, 1997

Dear Diary,

Sarah and I spent the whole day together, we went to Applebees and ate lunch. Then we went the beach and walked along beside the water for awhile. After that we went to Gators and played pool which was really fun. Then we went to the movies and saw “Scream”, the first horror movie I have ever seen and I must say it did freak me out alot!

Dear Diary,

            My Mom and I left Sarah and Aunt Kathy’s house and went home today.  It was just like on the way down there; totally boring.  It seemed like it took forever to so I was happy when we finally got home.

Dear Diary,

            When I went to school today I had to make up a Spelling..fun stuff…yeh right.  Other than that I didn’t really have any make up work to do luckily.  I hate make up work anyways then again…who doesn’t.

I dropped out of band today because I started to get tired of it, and I much rather be in chorus anyways, because I love to sing and write songs/poems.

 

Entry 292

February 5th, 1997

Dear Diary,

            I went to church tonight, which was fun.  Christy, Dan, and I had to sit through the sermon because Curran and DeWayne weren’t there to teach our class.  It wasn’t so bad, Christy and I drew pictures.

 

Entry 293

February 6th, 1997

Dear Diary,

As a joke Jessica and I called Joey today, and we used my second phone line to call him. Then when he picked up I put the two phones together so Jessica could talk to him instead of me, and Joey couldn’t hear Jessica because he just kept yelling hello over and over and then said he was fixing to hang up, so I hung up first.

            I went to school today as normal…tomorrow is Amy’s birthday.  I am even more excited because in 11 days it will be my birthday, which is of course on the 18th, Amy is 10 days older than me, obviously.

February 8th, 1997

Dear Diary,

Well, today Amy had her birthday party, it was pretty fun she invited Alice, Kelly, Carol, and I. First we went to Hardrock Cafe and everyone of us either got a hamburger or cheeseburger. Then we went to Dave and Busters and went to the mall and walked around for awhile. Then on the way home it was pretty late so her parents stopped and we got something to eat at Wendy’s.

February 9th, 1997

Dear Diary,

After church today Dan came over to type a report on the computer and he rode his four wheeler over here. When he got done he asked if I wanted to ride on his four wheeler with him for awhile and I said yeh of course. We rode around all over the woods behind my house then afterwards we watched “Independence Day”. Then we rode around on the four wheeler some more and when we got done we came back in and he left like five minutes later.

Dear Diary,

            I found out at school today that we are going to have a Valentine’s Day dance.  Of course I am probably not going to go unless someone asks me, which I sincerely doubt.

 Dear Diary,

Jessica and I called Joey again, but this time it was on three-way and we talked to him for about 30 minutes...I was just relieved he didn’t hang up on me.

February 12th, 1997

Dear Diary,

            I didn’t go to church today because I didn’t feel too great.  Of course I wasn’t sick because I went to school, I was just kind of tired when I got home…ya know?

 

Entries 300-301

February 13th-14th, 1997

Dear Diary,

Lately I have been trying to figure out alot of things in my life. I mean I never thought becoming a teenager would be like this. I can’t believe in five days I will be 13 and yet I still don’t understand my feelings about other people and things in life in general, I don’t know I am not exactly sure how to explain it. It is like sometimes I can’t tell who I like and who I don’t like. I know I like Joey, but he is about the only one I am sure about right now, and it just makes things really confusing for me.

 

Entries 302-303

February 15th-16th, 1997

Dear Diary,

Dan came over today to pick up a tape he wanted to borrow that had three movies on it, but he only wanted to watch two of them. Guess what I discovered while he was over though, my feelings for Dan have come back. I think they really started to come back that Saturday we went riding around on his four wheeler in the woods, but I just tried to brush them off, yet it didn’t succeed very well because my feelings just began to grow for him.

Dear Diary,

I had so much fun today. I got a basketball goal and a rifle from my Mom and Dad. We probably won’t put up the basketball goal until this weekend, but that is fine just as long as it gets up.

February 20th, 1997

Dear Diary,

            I was really bored today and the whole time I was in school I couldn’t stop thinking about tomorrow since that is when I am having my b-day party.  Nothing too eventful happened though as usual for me here lately.

Dear Diary,

            I was very excited today because Dan stopped by my house.  He only stopped by to ask my Dad if it was okay for him to ride his four wheeler on our land on his way to DeWayne’s house, but I was still happy that I got to see him.

February 23rd, 1997

February 24th, 1997

Dear Diary,

I was so tired at school today then when I got home Amy and I got in a fight. I’m upset about it but I think she will forgive me if I allow her some time to get over it.

 

Entry 312

February 25th, 1997

Dear Diary,

Amy is still mad at me unfortunately, I hope she will get over it soon. I hate it when one of my friends are mad at me especially when it is one of my closest friends such as Amy.

 

Entry 313

February 26th, 1997

Dear Diary,

Amy and I finally made up today because she had left her jacket over here during my slumber party and I wrote her a note and put it in the pocket of the jacket and after she read she called me and we were back to normal. I can say that is definitely a relief off of my shoulders.

 

Entry 314

February 27th, 1997

Dear Diary,

I started my period today which means it has been about a year now since I had it the first time so hopefully it will start being normal and on a schedule of every thirty days that way I don’t have to worry about it catching me off guard.

 

Entry 315

February 28th, 1997

Dear Diary,

Well today Jessica and I got in a fight and she said she will think about being my friend again, but it will take her awhile to decide. Amy and I went to go see a movie today we saw Vegas Vacation, and also my brother, Mel came down to visit us for the weekend.
