It's Back...Dear Diary

It's ironic, I figured I would have a lot more blogging material when I moved up here to St. Louis but for some reason, it seems to be incredibly lacking! Not sure what that says about me, but we'll leave that for another time and place.

I woke up super early this morning, and as I was laying in bed was thinking about what I would post next on the blog! Obviously, because isn't that what everyone thinks about when they mysteriously wake up early on a Sunday morning?! But anyways, I was deep in thought and then it hit me.... the diary! Somehow it got lost in the midst of quitting my job, moving, and starting school. But as of today, she is back!

**For those of you who are new readers of the blog, I will, on occasion, post legit diary entries from my middle school and unfortunately, sometimes high school diary! It is merely for humors sake, to remind my friend Karen how far our friendship has come, and to keep me humble!

We left off during 8th grade. I was currently in madly in love with Craig and Clay and was super excited when they would call me a brain or make eye contact with me in the hall. I was furious at Karen for a while (probably because Clay made eye contact with her more than me... we kept a tally...yes, we were sooo cool!) , but we made up. And I was struggling through the beginnings of reformed theology and also struggling to land my tumbling passes at the gym! Yes, the diary covers all this. Pretty deep.... Right!!

We pick up today in my last week of 8th grade. May 27th to be exact.

Dear Diary,

Wuz ^? NMH! I am a studyhollic. I have been studying since 6:00. It's now 10:20. Talk about boring! Today was great!

I talked to Clay (yeah!) but something better happened. I was totally flirting with Grant all day. Ok, it all started at lunch! Ash + I were walking into the cafeteria and he goes, "hey cuties!" AHH!

Then, he stole this note out of my pocket. I just let him take it, I didn't care! Later, I was like "Hey, Grant, can I have my note back!" He told me where it was and I went and got it. When I got it, he goes "Hey, babe, did you get it?" Then he hit me in the stomach. He got this look on his face then goes, "Woa, your stomach is hard!" AHHH!

I heart him and Clay and Alex, but he (Grant) is going out with Leigh. Next year they probably won't go out cuz Leigh is leaving! Maybe we'll go out! Gotta study!

Luv ya- Caroline

Ok, so if that is not a great day and a clear sign that a boy is totally in love with you, I'm not sure what is! Even though he did have a girlfriend! (This diary has made me wonder if I might have been somewhat delusional!)

Think I might try to the whole note in the pocket thing up here at seminary and see how it goes! Although, I better not let the next boy punch me in the stomach! Pretty sure I wouldn't get the same reaction these days!

Well, gotta go! Until next time...
