The March Onward to Adalessonts

...In which my mean streak is further unveiled.  Or is it just childish carelessness/ignorance?  No concept of judgement and the harm it can cause?  Also, my 5th grade crush is revealed, and I wax philosophical.

Tommarow Adam has a game so I'm staying. Whopeedodahdeday! Games are so much fun!

Hi! Tonite Holly, Bonnie, Rick, and Mary are coming for the weekend. I can't wait! Today is Friday. Ashley is gone. I didn't really like her that much.  She's a snob, and she flirts with all the boys!  I'm a little glad she's gone!

Well see ya.  I can't really concentrate.  Because I'm listening to A.L Radio station!  (Amy and Lee's)  We tape each other, you know.

Hi! Holly and Bonnie were great! I had so much fun! Geuss what? I'm going to the Math Olypics! With Craig, Gyran, and Ryan.  (Edit - The second kid's name was actually Garyn, but apparently I didn't know how to spell my classmates' names, despite the fact there were less than twenty of us.)  Dallas was going to go, but he didn't want to, so Craig's going.  I wish Dallas was going.  I think he likes me!  Maybe he's just my friend.  Well, I'm his friend.  TJ is my friend.  I mean, I don't come to school passionately in love with him anymore.  

Oh wow. Adalessonts.  The Worst and Best years of my life.  Today in PE I was really mad.  At everyone.  Then I went outside and asked God to help me.  He did!  (of corse.)  I was filled with love for everyone!  

For the speech meet I'm memorizing "I Have a Dream." It's so good.  And I'm writing a book called, 'The Land Below the Sea.' I think it's the best I've ever written.  

Ya know. In my last diary, I didn't really tell you my deep down feelings.  In this one I do.  

Note: Sadly, I have no memory of "The Land Below the Sea," and no evidence of it remains. A great work of literature, lost to time.  And those really are my deep down feelings.
