10-23-89 "What we learn with pleasure, we never forget." – Alfred Mercier I went to Bonnie’s house and stayed all weekend. Nikki came over too. We had a really good time. All we mostly did was sing and play guitar. It was still fun, though. Our band is getting better and closer although Nikki’s dad…

10-20-89 "The desire to write goes with writing." – Desiderius Erasmus Mrs. Rita is leaving for Texas today. She has to go see Terry at M.D. Anderson hospital. They put him in a bubble and confirmed that he does have leukemia. All we can do is pray.

10-19-89 "A book must be the axe for the frozen sea inside us." – Franz Karka I went to church last night. We sang church songs and brother Ron preached. I go to church a lot but I just thought I’d write about it today. I don’t really like church because we go to a full gospel…

10-18-89 "Whoso neglects learning in his youth, loses the past and is dead to the future." – Euripides I wasn’t here yesterday because I didn’t feel well. I feel better today. I’m glad to be back because I was so bored yesterday at home. I feel like I missing something by not being here. Hopefully, though, I didn’t.…

10-11-89 "Every child ought to be more intelligent than his parents." – Clarance Darrow I have had a pretty good day so far. It’s Wednesday and we have a short week. I might be going to the fair tonight. I hope I get to go. I will probably just stay home and be bored the whole time we’re…

"Only the hand that erases can write the true thing." – Meister Eckhart I went home yesterday and learned Motley Crue’s song "You’re All I Need". It’s a very pretty song. I have had a very strange day. I’m ready to go home so I can practice my guitar. We have changed the name of our band from Aryan…

10-9-89 "The limits of my language stand for the limits of my world." – L. Wittgenstein My weekend was the most boring of my life. I stayed home all weekend. My mom and I had a flat tire Friday night on the way back from Baton Rouge.

10-6-89 "Remember, no one can make you feel inferior without your consent." – Eleanor Roosevelt I went to Nikki’s yesterday. She had company on the way over so we didn’t stay long. After I left she and her mom got in a fight. I know it was because of me. I just can’t do anything right. Oh,…

10-5-89 "Have the courage to live. Anyone can die." – Robert Cody I haven’t been at school for a couple of days, but I feel better now. I have a sinus infection. I have a lot of make up work. I am glad to be back, though, because staying home is very boring.

9-29-89 "The first step to knowledge is to know that we are ignorant." – Lord David Cecil I feel horrible today. I have the most awful headache. It’s raining outside and it’s humid. I am hot. But, in spite of it all, I’m still going to Debbie’s party. Well, that’s all I’m going to write for today.
