SCHOOL'S OUT!!
Oh. My. God. School is out and I am SO happy. Mom took me out shopping a bit at the mall to celebrate my good grades and I found the most DARLING SKIRT EVER. It's blue and frilly at the bottom and its a bit above my knees. The frilly bits have a bit of green and there are green strips going from the waistband down. So adorable!
Shelly said that she wanted to take me aaaalll the way from out of town to the inside of Eden and I was all like “What? No way!” there's some sort of park there according to her. Like, an amusement park and it has a water park and it sounds so COOOOOL!!! I can't wait! Mom and Dad said it was okay.
Something in a Smile
I'm grinning. Grinning as I stroll into the bar, grinning as I order a drink, grinning as I scan the room. Smile wide and you always look friendly, and tonight I want somebody to talk with. Somebody to converse with, that sort of stuff, share stories. Perhaps tell a white lie or two about how I just came home from Iraq. Might explain the scars on my face and neck. A girl, perhaps just able to drink, walks up to the bar after entering. She's very sad looking. Awww.

This is the first time I'm writing in this journal, so I don't really know what to say. Maybe I could write about the fact that I can hear Jin Ae saying that it's just like me to call a diary a journal. Well, I can. Because it is like me, I suppose. I can even see her, it seems, I guess because of how much I miss her.
It's amazing how people can just be...gone, from your life. We moved to Eden, North Carolina like it was nothing, and it was nothing. Then her health started to fade. And one day she was just gone.
I miss her so much.
Who's There?
You feel me. You know I'm there. It's that sense that all young ones have with our world. Yes, our world. There are many like me.
My Sweet Boy
When I met my wife, Jenny, it was love at first sight. I had never, ever seen somebody so beautiful in all my life. We talked throughout the night, me ignoring the woman I had been courting. We were...destined, it seemed, if I dared to say such a thing.
