Dear Diar Would "dear diary" sound too cheesy for this? I mean, it is a diary but those two words are way overused. Maybe I should just start with something like "hey!" or even "what's up?". This diary obviously won't answer, but it sounds a lot more pleasant and less laughable if you think about it. But enough ridiculous rambling!

Hello! Name's Penelope. Penelope Grace. I prefer to go by Penny, though! Man, I've been asking my parents for a diary for super long, but finally got one, after doing a heck load of chores. I'm using this so I can jot my feelings down and rant about whatever, whenever. I suppose this first entry will just start off as an introduction, I suppose?

At school I'm doing average, but there's a lot of things I'm confused about. I mean, it's school so... does it really matter? I have two very close friends by the name of Sarah and Allie, and they're the most bestest friends I could ever ask for! Allie is a carefree type of person who can't really take anything seriously, but she has the best jokes! Sarah is a total nerd, but she also has a very good sense of humor (plus she helps Allie and I with our homework, haha)!

As for my family, I have an older sister named Pepper! I suppose you could say she outshines me in practically everything, but I get used to it. Pepper is a swimmer, and she's good. She usually lands in top three when competing, and her room is stuffed with all sorts of ribbons and trophies of her wins. My mother and father don't normally spoil us, but when it's our birthdays they drown us with all sorts of crazy cool presents! Plus, when it's my birthday Pepper is forced to skip any swimming related things, even if it's super important (and I love making it mad about it, mwahaha)!

About me, personally, I love collecting anything that's shiny. From jewelry to rocks, I've got a whole collection of sparkling things. In fact, I love collecting a lot of things. Candles, charms, feathers, pencils... even the tabs on pop cans! Pepper always says that one day I'll throw everything out, but she's an older sibling. Older siblings always say stuff like that.

The main reason my parents finally caved into getting me a diary was because they wanted me to 'practice my writing abilities'. I think that's a weird reasoning, but I'm not complaining! As long as I get to keep my diary, I'm fine.

I suppose I'll end this entry here. Bye!


-Yours truly, Penny

Oof. Hello diary! Today my teacher gave us a really long math test, and now my hand is super sore. I think I can manage an entry, though. But after I'm totally raiding the fridge and taking all the ice cream we have. But for now, I just have to deal with it.

I told Allie and Sarah about my new diary today at lunch, and they said diaries are for "babies". I've heard that insult way too many times, so I changed the subject to our math test. Sarah immediately started rambling about how she aced the test, and most likely scored bonus points too (but there wasn't even a bonus question, so she probably gave herself an extra question that was like three grades ahead of ours). After what seemed like hours, the bell rang and we were off.

I also heard a rumor that one of our teachers is going to be moving, so we'll be getting a new teacher. I don't know who, but I hope it's Mrs. Lucida, which is the most strict and confusing teacher is our school. Not to Sarah, though. Sarah and all the teachers seem to have some sort of weird connection that no other student has. But I mean... I'm not going to have a casual conversation with a teacher anytime soon, so it's fine.

I'm going to Allie's house tomorrow to hang out and eat all her candy, but that also means I get to see her new puppy! I'm super excited. We can't get a dog in our house since Pepper is allergic, and my parents like cats way better (Pepper also likes cats, too). Allie told me that her puppy likes chewing on everything, including shoes, so I should wear an old pair. I don't mind anything chewing up my shoes, though. But I'm sure my mom will go bonkers.

That's it for now! Bye!

Today was horrid.

I was suppose to go to Allie's house today, but my sister got a really bad cold and my mother had to stay home from work to take care of Pepper. But my mom said that "it wasn't fair that I got to go to Allie's house, especially since I did bad on my test", so she cancelled it. That barely makes any sense though! I know that Allie had a super important swim meet today, but that doesn't mean ruin it for me as well!

Allie called me and asked why I wasn't over yet, and I explained the situation to her. She then started to call me a pathetic liar and hung up. Allie has never called me a "pathetic liar" before, and I'm still pretty bitter at her for saying that. But I don't really care at this point, my day was already bad. So I suppose I'll rewind to the hours I was at school.

We got our math tests handed back, and I completely flunked it. Even Allie did better than me! Sarah, of course, got everything right and started to brag about it right in our faces. Allie and I are used to it, but today was especially bad because I, personally, did horrible on my test. So considering the fact Sarah had made matters worse, I'm pretty irritated at both Allie and Sarah.

At lunch, I wasn't feeling super bright about what Sarah did, and overall didn't want to talk to anyone. I was headed towards another table besides the one Allie, Sarah and I usually sit at. But then, of course, Sarah "accidentally" dropped her banana peel. I suppose you could guess what happened next. I slipped on it and tumbled face first into the nearest table. I wasn't bleeding, but I felt a hefty amount of pain. Then everyone turned and started snickering at me. Even Sarah and Allie!

So to put it simply, today was not my day.

I'm scared. Terrified, in fact. Pepper's cold keeps getting worse and worse, and she can barely speak. Mom brought her to the doctor's, and they haven't returned just yet. Dad is at work, as well, so I'm at home, anxiously sitting on my bed and writing these very words.

I was given the choice to stay home from school, and I should have. But I went to school. I was still a bit annoyed at Allie and Sarah, and when I arrived at school is seemed they had already made a cluster of new friends. Which, obviously, is just what I need. But seriously, how did they make so many friends within a few hours? Why haven't they before?

I was extremely quiet today. One of my teachers even asked what was going on, and I said replied with my silence. She narrowed her eyes at me, but she left. I just... didn't feel like talking today. And I don't exactly feel like writing much, either. My motivation is sort of dying right now, so I'll write later.

See you later.

Pepper... she hasn't gone better. Just worse. I really needed some comfort, but Allie and Sarah refused to talk to me. They were to busy chatting with their new friends. So I just sat alone the whole day.

The same teacher who asked me what was wrong in my last entry asked me again today, and this time I told her everything. She sighed, patted my back and left. She was majorly helpful (ignore my sarcasm, I'm just upset).

My motivation for anything is next to gone. My entries will probably be short for now. I just hope everything turns out better.

I hope.

Pepper has to spend her whole days at the hospital, now. From what my mom has told me, Pepper is feeling really sick. I'm currently working on a 'get well soon' card for her, partially because my mom suggested it. But Pepper needs all the support she can get, even if it means using my own free time to work on little presents for her.

I have a small pile of things I want to give Pepper once I visit her in the hospital this week. My mom said we can go out to buy her favourite chocolates tonight, if we have time. I really hope Pepper feels better soon. Her swim team has already sent her a lot of cards and gifts, but Pepper's too weak to fully appreciate any of them. I hope she's strong enough to when she sees mine.

My motivation to write has barely got any better, though. My writing teacher has noticed, too. I told her about my problems, and she seemed to have understood. She's giving me pretty simple writing tasks. Although I'm a bit embarrassed of having quick and easy writing tasks, it's what I need as of right now.

Allie and Sarah... they're pretty much strangers now. I don't know what has happened between us three, but I'm an outcast now. They don't see me as a friend, but rather just another kid who goes to the school. I want to change their perspective soon, but I don't know how. My life is just... in shambles currently.

Goodbye, for now.

Pepper is gone. She is no more.


-Yours not so truly, Penny

It's been a week since I written in here. So for context on my previous entry, Pepper was too weak and... she passed. I don't know what illness it was, but she didn't make it. In about two weeks my mom, dad and I are going to go to the memorial Pepper's swim team is working on for her. I've made a few contributions to it, like adding my cards that Pepper never read. But other than that, I'm still too mournful to do much.

The situation with Allie and Sarah has shaped up the slightest bit. I murmured a hello to Allie today, and she seemed surprised. But she said hello back. Then we parted. I don't know if we'll ever become as close as we once were, but if I'm at least friends with her then I'm fine. I don't want to be ignored anymore.

I told a few of my teachers what happened with my sister, only because I want them to understand that I'm not feeling melancholy for absolutely no reason.

My life is in pieces.


-Yours truly, Penny
