My New Obsession

August 19, 1991 | Tacoma | Age 13

DAY OF MEMBRANCE [sic]

Continued Preparation For Renewal - [yin-yang]

Oh, I must admit it, I'd gladly rather be reading on "The Witching Hour" (by my beloved Anne Rice - my new obsession (sp? why do you care - this is my entry - GRRRR!) or dreaming than be here writing, but since I "cleaned"* my room today, I thought I might humor you.

Marie's father is remarring [sic], and I only pray all goes well. She seems happy enough, but I can't help wonder... All the same, I believe Marie would benefit from this - although she disagrees, I think she really does need a "female companion", to share with, ect. [sic] Good Luck, my dear.

I am Horribly Excited About Tomorrow

August 5, 1991 | Tacoma | Age 13

Dear Diary,

Well - another day with the Anne. I shall write fast beause I would like to get to the book Anne lent me - "Beauty" by Robin Mckinley, its enchanting.

All the same, I am horribly excited about tomorrow, and showing Mrs. N my new violin (I ADORE IT SO SO MUCH).

Anne & I are going to the zoo tomorrow with Q. & B. I got into an awful fight with B. today, but he was being a pain. Sorry, kid.

I Want to See Ancient Towers, Meditate in Cathedrals

October 21, 1990 | Tacoma | Age 12

Dear Diary,

Hello!, from my complicated world of questions. I trust life goes well? I have really been seriously thinking about becoming involved in an exchange student program. Maybe I could go to Findhorn, or the place where the second 'Gnome' book took place (strange, but whenever I see a picture from those books, I feel as though I've been there [hmm]). I want to see ancient towers, meditate in cathedrals, nap in green gardens, near a sprinkle of water. When you find there, you'll find me.
