I am very depressed because I don’t know why. I think it might have something to do with Clay B (he’s in my math class) and John P. Whenever Clay looks at me in Math, I’m always happy to see John. Clay didn’t look at me today, I saw John, but it wasn’t as exciting as usual. It is also very sad because they both probably hate my guts, but I love them.

At mutual we went to Martha S’s house and looked at her roosters, hens, pigeons and her horse. It was pretty cool.

At school, the Uintah debate team came. There are 2 girls on the whole team. The rest are boys.

It is very sad because I am wasting all my time staring at two guys who hate me.

I stayed home from school today. After I did, I felt guilty. I always feel guilty when I do something like that. I wasn’t as sick any more. Just my nose. I don’t know what I missed. I don’t know why I feel guilty. It’s kind of stupid. I only feel guilty when I break a goal. I don’t think I broke a gola. I don’t think I made one. Besides, there will be plenty of other chances to get perfect attendance.

Nothing exciting happened at home. I just sat around and did nothing. Actually, later on I went outside and played poison. I won. Tomorrow I have to go to school. I guess that’s okay. But I can’t wait until summer vacation.

I was even sicker than I was yesterday. I had a fever. I was all sweaty and I blacked out. My throat still hurts. My nose is still bad and so is my cough. I don’t know if I’m going to school.

I missed the Easter candy hunt, and I didn’t go to Matthew’s grave. I think I almost fainted.

I also missed the first session of General Conference. The second session was pretty good. At six we watched sixty minutes. President Hinkley was on it.

We went to Grandma and Grandpa’s house. It wasn’t very fun, cause I was really sick, I couphed and hacked and wheezed. It was awful. We listened to conference.

I was so weak, I was too weak to shiver. It was horrible. My throat hurts, my eyes water, my nose is running and clogged, my throat cloggs up when I cough. I thought I had a fever, but my eyes were just hot. I wish I would just get better.

I changed my earrings, it hurt pretty bad. I am in agony. I didn’t even get my Tonga report. There isn’t enough information on Tonga to fill up 50 pages, unless you did a biography on each person who lives there. I can’t find a map bigger than 2 square inches and they don’t have any detail at all. It is horrible. The whole day was horrible.

Today is Becca’s 14 birthday. She invited over 4 friends. They are really nice. Theres: Jen F, Diana E, Lisa W and Lauri S.

I went Baby-sitting. It was okay. It could have been better.

It is like almost 2 o’clock in the morning. We watched the cutest chick-flick. It’s called “Only You.” It is so cute!!! It has the best ending. I want to see it again sooooo bad. It has some bad parts though.

I had a really bad sore throat. It hurts so bad!!

I didn’t see John, though, he’s so fine. He also breaks my heart sometimes, when he doesn’t talk to me it’s so sad!! I’m dead meat. I haven’t done my Tonga report yet!!

Today was niether good, nor bad. I did not see John. He’s so fine. I went shopping with Becca, for her birthday. She got the cutest shirt and shorts. I’m going to get something like that, maybe.

Isaac is being sort of a big fat jerk. He beats us (me and Becca) up all the time and is always mean, and then he expects us to be nice and to do him favors. He needs to figure it out. He is a jerk.

I also have a sore throat.

When I grow up, I’m not living any where near Isaac. He’s a jerk.

I need to see John soon. He’s so fine!!

When I grow up, I’m going to live far, far away from Becca. I don’t know where, but away. She punched me, the wind got knocked out of me, and she threw something at me. I did not see John. I didn’t do any of my remaining homework. I feel rotten.

Jessie slammed her finger in a door yesterday. Today we found out that she crushed the bone, and tore the nail bed. She might not have a fingernail anymore. The doctor could only get 2 stiches in, the nail bed was all mush, so it wouldn’t stay. This was a terrible day. Worst in the world.

Today was the best day in the world!! I finished some of my homework, and heard a lot of good songs on the radio. And then there’s Mutual. Mutual was the best. We played crab ball. It was so fun. My team won both times! Then we went on a hunt. I found two of the four things on our list. Our ward is pretty awesome! Everyone was really nice!! I also got a job from Sister C. I get to call the new Beehives parents to make appointments for the leads to meet with them! I’m so happy!! I hope this will overcome my shyness. I think it will!!

Then then there’s John. He came to our ward to play basketball after the activity. He’s so fine. Next time I see him, I’m going to say something to him. I don’t know what, but something.

April 1, 1996 – Mon

We had our first day off today. I listened to the radio, I worked on my debate speech, I played catch with Jarom and Sarah and I read a book.

I also say John. He’s so fine, so is Clay. I wonder who I’m going to marry. I wonder what he is like. I wonder if I know him right now. I wonder if he likes me. I wonder what he looks like. I wonder if we will get along good. I know we will. There is not one person in the whole world that I have not been able to get along with. I am going to shut him up by giving him a kiss if we ever get mad a each other. I’m going to love him to pieces. I hope our life together never gets dull.

Today I became Beehive secretary! (Again) In my blessing it said I would be able to make friends in my classes. It said more about friends, but I don’t remember what. I wish they wrote it down. I walked home from church with Jenilyn (Jenny) we are becoming good friends. I hope we will be able to make friends with the other girls in our classes. Meg asked if she could sit by me what a privlidge! Oh ya, the President of Beehives is Amy H, First counselor: Kari T, second counselor: Jennilyn S. I noticed in all the blessings it said something about friendshipping the others in our class. Some day I’m going to invite my Bountiful friends and my Salt Lake friends together for a party or something like that. I hope it will be fun.
