Yesterday marked the 5th month I've had you. It's hard to believe that in just five months, you're practically all filled up!
I remember when I first got you from I.N., and showed you to the class.
"You'll have that filled up in a week!"... called out jokingly. (The whole 7th grade knows of my reading and writing "abilities.")
Not quite...
I have to admit, I'm kinda anxious to finish you. Don't get me wrong-- you're a great comfort to me and the only "person" who truly listens and understands me-- but I've never finished a diary before. I was about right here on my last diary when I misplaced it. It's still missing, which is a bummer because I really want to read it. I think I called THAT diary "Di" as well. You'll just have to be Di 2.
I have this thought often: isn't it funny how everyone comes and compliments the pretty blue cover with the big sunflower on the front & bees swarming around it!
But just open to the middle, read a few entries, and you'll find that everything is not as serene and peaceful as it seems. A troubled young teen is pouring out her soul to the sunflower, while the bees hover sympathetically around it.
My b-day's on the 24th. I hope to have you completed with the final entry on that day.
