A while back I made my way to my old bedroom closet at my parent’s house to retrieve a box of letters and diaries I’d saved from middle and high school. I found a chunk of diary entries from an English assignment in middle school. I was pretty amused and I think they may make you chuckle too. Or not. Let’s start with Diary #1. I’m assuming I had to name my diary as part of the assignment because the name of mine was Kate. In this entry I describe how I had a series of basketball games. Then I talk about building a gingerbread house and having a friend over for new year’s eve. Then my thoughts shifted to what Christmas gifts I was buying for my family. I also noted what gift I would be giving my mom for her birthday – the Phantom of the Opera CD. Oh yeah, and can you believe how pricey I thought the school Christmas dance was!!!? Where was I going to find a dress for $30? Maybe the clearance rack at Ross?
I was so very happy to receive the Phantom CD…I think Dana has it now so I need a new one for my next B-day. Love, Mom
