The 90's by Sarah

You Might Just Be the Main Character

August 13, 1991 | Tacoma | Age 13

Dear Diary,

BORING DAY here in journal land.

Do you ever feel possessed by the strange idea that you might just be the main character in a movie - your life? Do you wish it?

Like you could shoot that scene where you have this great unsurmountable [sic] (boy, I made that one long!) ordeal you have to get through, like say? - remodeling or "revising" your yard. Instead of going through all the boredom of "doing it," some music comes on & you just see a few shots of you working, a couple of you wiping the sweat from your brow, etc., then about 1 min. later it's done and you go in for lemonade.

Good? -S

P.S. the people came and looked @ the yard today - great ideas, a lot of work. [smiley face]

It Concerned a Shower, Audrey Horne, Love-Making

August 12, 1991 | Tacoma | Age 13

Dear Diary,

Why must I always be so mediocre in my entries here? I remember when I thought up the most interesting things, I don't even record my dreams anymore (I had the greatest one last night about S.M., it concerned a shower, Audrey Horne, love making... [smiley face])
- I don't even doodle [double underline]!

Of course, back when I had decent things to write, imaginative things, I was less stressed, more apt to "think" a bit.

* SIGH * Don't despair, my loves, I have vowed to have fun with my next journal - I shall write when JUNIOR HIGH rolls around - to mark a new beginning but for now I must come to an end.

P.S. This coming year (sch. yr.) I will be: in advance math, english, and orchestra (J.H.); Tacoma Youth Symphony; a University of Puget Sound ensemble thing ; an Expository Writing Tutorial - By - Mail class; FIMO working; and being a teenager.
