Hey Kristi,
Sorry I haven’t been writing… A lot has been going on. First of all, my grandpa has been staying with us; he sexually molested my sister and me and he showed “himself” to me. We had to go talk to the police and they had to video record my sister’s and my interview. Yesterday, the detective called and said that we might have to go on channel 13 News to catch him. I am really scared. My grandpa chased me up the stairs and grabbed at my feet so I wouldn’t tell.
I also double pierced my ears, yesterday, after my mom said “no”. I did it myself by pushing the earrings through my ears. I don’t know why I did it. I have been feeling so bad and I guess I was angry. I got in trouble and, today, I am grounded. It has been so long since the last time I got in trouble… I feel soooo bad.
Since I’ve got time, I’ve got more from my school journal to record:
My personality traits come mostly from my dad, I think. I am a hard worker, patient, curios and understanding like him. My shyness and imagination come from my mom. I am creative and spiritual like her. People say I look like her too. I love mind games, story problems and music like my grandpa. I take good care of my things like my grandma.
Hobbies that I enjoy are: reading, sewing, painting/drawing, dancing, crafts, running, camping, bike riding, skating and playing the piano.
I have lots of hobbies but no time to do them. Striving for 4.0’s in school, my chores and being the Mia Maid president for church takes up most of my time. I hope I have time today to do something fun. Maybe I’ll finish sewing my dress for Young Women in Excellence. It’s looking pretty nice. I just have to hem up the bottom now… After that, I might just go to bed. I am tired!
