Dear Diary...

Another excellent excerpt from my junior high diaries:

10/28/89 Friday (note to reader: just turned 13)

I got home from Jr. High Camp today. God really moved in my life. I am now doing devotions every night. Kelly Malanga and Jody Hansen were my counselors. I had a rad cabin, too. Amber, Shay, Andrea Munden, Ruth Obregon, Jaime Slagel, Jaime White, Jennifer Jeremiah. I'm gonna keep track of what I learn in my journal. It should be great! You know what's strange? I think I finally like someone again. His name is Justin Weeks. He's Mr Weeks (our principals) son! He's cute, considerate, and VERY nice to me. He plays guitar very well. He is a Christian. Only one problem: he's in 7th grade. BUT, he's supposed to be in 8th. He's 6 months older than me, too. If he asked me, I might say yes. Well, gotta go!

11/6/89

I didn't realize how long it's been since I last wrote. Amber Rady went out with Justin, and when I found out I was so-o-o-o jealous. I told Amber that I was, too, because that way Satan can not get to me as bad.

But now, Amber's thinking of breaking up with him because they don't communicate as well as when they used to when they weren't going out.

If Justin were to ask me, which he might, maybe, possibly do, then I don't think I'd go out w/ him just because I know it won't last and when they break up, it's like they aren't friends anymore, and they're mad and so on.

Today was report cards and I got all A's and B's (big smiley face).
