My own story, maybe

Dear diary,

That's a thing, right? People usually address their diaries like they're writing it letters or something? I don't know. I think it's weird. Maybe I'll get used to it. I've never kept a diary before. I only have this one because Aunt Roz mailed it to me. I guess Mom told her I was moving into the dorms and apparently this means I need a diary, because she sent me one. I don't know, I think she just wanted to be nice and wanted to send me something and didn't know what to get because I've only met her a few times? It was a nice thought, I guess.

Talk to you soon (is that a thing too? Do people say goodbye to their diaries?)

Marnie

Dear diary

Never mind. I don't like that so I'll just write.

I met my roommate last week, she moved in the same day I did. She can read minds! She's pretty weird though (she told me she couldn't hear thoughts through walls or doors but I'm writing this out by the pond just in case). Sometimes it's like she's got a computer instead of a brain. But she seems to think my camo is cool, and she's around more than the other girls in my dorm even if she is usually busy with homework.

I guess that's it. If my roommate goes Carrie and destroys the dorms tell Mom and Dad I love them.
