Entry 2: 2 - 27 - 12

A Chapter by A. L. Allen

Dear Journal,      2 �" 27 - 12

          I’m writing today with a heart of gratitude; gratitude for good friends that have stood by me to the end. Justin and Terra are so caring and considerate; I almost feel like I don’t deserve them. They are true friends, and they fly much higher than any expectations that I could possibly have.

Today, for instance, I was feeling really down on myself; almost

to the point of depression. All the name calling had really gotten to me, and I was close to tears almost all day, though I thought held it in pretty well… at least I thought I did until Justin stopped me in the hall. He hadn’t seen me all day until that one time he passed me, but he immediately stopped and asked me what was wrong I was a little surprised at first that he noticed I wasn’t feeling myself, but I shrugged it off and told him that it was nothing he needed to worry about. He didn’t push me to tell him. Instead, he did something, much, much better. He just pulled me in to a big hug, told me how grateful he was to have a friend like me, and then smiled and walked off to his class. It seriously made me start crying; the good kind of tears.

          Soon after that, I sunk back down into my self-misery, and was just sitting in class and feeling like a nothing. While the teacher wasn’t looking, Terra passed me a note. When I read it, I honestly couldn’t keep the tears in any longer. I just hope that nobody saw them.

          There’s no way that I could adequately describe the note and do it justice, so I’m just taping it in here so you can see it for yourself.

 

Taylor,

            I just wanted to let you know how much you

mean to me. You are so special and beautiful. Every

time I see you I can’t help but smile. Don’t ever change!

The world would be a very dark place without you.

            Just know, Taylor, that, no matter what, I will

treasure your friendship, and I’ll always try to be there

for you like you’ve been here for me; if not in body, then

in spirit.

            You’re the greatest!

            Love:

                        Terra

 

Do you see how absolutely amazing these people are?! They are all I expected in a true friend and more! They have all the qualities of people from fairytales, but they’re real, and they’re my friends. I just hope that I can be as good a friend to them as they are to me.

~Taylor

A very cute entry. But it does contrast with the unhappiness. The more dramatic the better. It's a bit rushed but I like that you look at things from an emotional point of view

This was beautiful! I know how the girl must feel, cuz that kind of stuff used to haoppen to me. You should proofread it, though. I caught a few missing words. This entry made me remember when I was being called names every day.

Those are true friends, don't ever forget them. This entry was very emotional for me, just like the first entry. I can relate so much to these.

I can so relate to this! I'm usually like my emo self some days, and my friends are always there to check on me and make me feel better. I think Taylor's friends are sweet, and caring and those elements are sure keeping the girl alive. -scampers off-

This was sweet. So very sweet. "He didn’t push me to tell him." I agree with Taylor.
