I was not at school today and I don’t remember what happened.

Something that makes me sick is having to come back to school on Monday after a holiday. I hate Mondays more than any other day of the week. They always seem so long and dragged on. I wish there were no Mondays but I guess if there were no Mondays that Tuesday would be like Monday…

March 24, 1988 Right now I am sleepy. I want to go home and go to sleep. Saturday, the 26th is my birthday. I am excited. I don’t know what I am going to get for my birthday. My dad came to visit me Sunday and he bought me some Tretorns. He told me he was going to send…

When I took guitar lessons I learned alot of stuff. I can play some songs and a few scales. My guitar teacher was really nice. He was a really patient person. He moved to Jackson. Then another teacher took his place and he quit, then another teacher took his place and when I went up there and…

March 22, 1988 I can’t stand green beans! They are so gross. I ate them once when I was going to nursery school and ever since then I have hated them. They are so slimy and gooey. They smell gross, they look gross, they taste gross, they are gross. I would rather be run over by a…

March 21, 1988 Today has been pretty good so far. Yesterday my dad came to visit me and Mike & Sharon came with him. We went to the mall and to the levee. We went through the museum. They had the steering wheel to a ship and the little deal that they do morse code…

Today has been pretty lousy so far. My neck hurts, my toe hurts, I’m sleepy and I don’t feel good. On top of all that I forgot my articles for science. I have an 83 average in math. I want to go home. I really feel like crap. I will be glad when 2:45 gets…

March 16, 1988 Today has been pretty good so far. I don’t have any homework yet. I hope I don’t have any at all. Yesterday my mom had to go to New Orleans to court. Glenda went with her and they did not get back until 8:05. I was glad to see them but I…

March 15, 1988 Today has been pretty good so far. I don’t feel very good, though. My bus did not come pick me up until 8:05. I was about to go home and get my mom to take me. I didn’t think she was coming. Every bus in Denham Springs must have passed by while I…

March 14, 1988 I was not feeling well today so I could not come to school. I had an awful headache and I felt sick. I am feeling better now, though.  My mom has to go to court tomorrow in New Orleans. I hope she has a safe trip.
