Dear Diary

When I was a kid, I was very into my diaries and journals. Somehow, I still have all of them. (Anyone who knows me knows that that's a big deal, since I love to throw things away.) In an attempt to avoid cleaning, I decided to pull them out and read them. Some things were just pretty funny, so I thought I'd share.

"Guess what? I got GROUNDED from the phone! I am at such a depressing age."

Seriously? I was 10 years old. If that was depressing, I don't even have words for being 30. Some days I would like to be grounded from the phone.


Nov. 25, 1993 (Thanksgiving "93")
"Happy Thanksgiving. I'm thankful for my family, even though they get a little bit stupid a lot."

That's just funny. There's nothing else to even say about it.

"My sister is a pain in the brat! She always tries to act sooo perfect. About EVERYTHING!"

This is still true!! Not much has changed! And who even says "pain in the brat?"

"Becky is all excited...she made the varsity cheer leading team. I'm happy for her, but then again, it really worries me. A lot of cheerleaders have bad reputations and party, and I don't want her to end up like that, but all I can do is pray."

Well, the good news is, she turned out okay. God answers prayers! ;)

"I took the driver's test today, and I didn't pass it. First, we did all the little checks, and for the life of me I couldn't remember how to dim & brighten the lights. But anyway, I figured that out and went on. I messed up my turnabout really bad, almost hit a light pole when I had to 'park on a hill,' and I didn't turn the wheel into the curb, so I got counted off on that--I had never been taught to do any of those things anyway!"

Seriously?!?! What DID I know about driving?

Well, there was  A LOT more that was funny....mainly about all the boys I liked and "went out with," but seeing how I am friends with most of them on Facebook, I should refrain from talking about them. Just so you know, I no longer keep a diary...promise! :)
