I've never been so desperate for a boyfriend in my life! Don't tell anyone but I sort of like John D.

Dear Diary,

Tomorrows Easter! I'll praise Jesus as long as I live! I hope I will get zoot suit pants! Or a stuffed animal. I pray that Erin will come over to Grandma's even if she's visiting her grandma Baldwin's house. I can't wait.

Dear Diary,

I wish John M. still went to our school. Or at least B.J. It doesn't seem like valentine's day without them.
