Forgotten concerns, Future memories

Dear diary, this morning wasnt all that great. I had to wake up early because dad had something to do before work...I dont like having to wake up that early. It was right in the middle of a great dream too! It was about that girl again. I was late for school...again (dad's fault!). I had to wait in the late section and watch assembly from afar. I tried so hard to make sure no one would see me, but Im sure someone did. <sigh> I even got a demerit. That teacher is so mean...it wasnt even my fault. I tried to explain and she just wouldnt listen to me. That makes 2 for the week...I’m going to have to avoid getting anymore or else its detention. And whats worse is that Dad and mom just sat in the car and watched me for like 5 minutes! I tried waving so they would leave, and they just sat there and watched me, smiling. I was so embarrassed. I hope no one saw them. 

Class today was boring as usual. Who cares about half this stuff? I hate math. Can you believe I completely forgot to do my homework?? Teacher made everyone who didn’t do it stand up and go to the headmistress’ office. I don’t know what happened to them there, because I didn’t move. I had to go outside with the rest of the smarty pants people and try answering questions off the top of my head. I got all my questions wrong, but that’s just fine, because I "did" my homework! I just wasn’t any good. You don’t get in trouble for being wrong. Score 1 for me! 

Last week that guy troubled me again. I really hate him. I dont know what I did to make him dislike me, but he’s always trying to make fun of me. Yea so what if I have a big head and my mom cuts my hair? Im not ugly and even if I was ugly that would make him SUPER ugly. I wish someone would just beat him up for me. He made me cry the other day...I felt so mad! I wanted to just hit him, but then I’d get in trouble, so I just ran away. <sigh> He troubled me today too. This time though, I waited till he went to break and hid his lunch kit. He spent the whole break looking for it and didn’t get anything to eat. Sucker. 

I saw that girl again today. I really want to ask her if she likes me. I like her so much and...well every time I try to say something, I get all nervous and start to shake. <sigh> I think I’ll write her a note instead. I remember 2 weeks ago when we got dared to go around the back of the classroom and kiss. I totally kissed her cheek. I thought I was going to pass out I was so scared. I haven’t thought about anything else since then. I keep trying to get them to play truth or dare again, but all they want to do is play catcher man. I’ll write her the note tomorrow.

I’m home now, and just waiting for G.I. Joe to finish so I can watch some Captain Planet. Mom always decides to call me for dinner just as it comes on! I don’t understand why she can’t just wait till the show is over to call me. She can be so demanding! Anyway, I’m off to bed now. Oh shoot! Forgot to do my homework again. Mom asked me about it and I said the teacher took up the books to double check so we didn’t have homework this week, but she asked to see my homework book and saw all the work I had for tonight and woke me up to go and do it. I don’t like mommy very much. I was asking her for help and she had no idea how to do the homework. Dad was no help either. What’s the point of growing up if you’re still not smart? Maybe they didn’t do their homework either. That’s probably why they’re making sure I always do mine, so I can grow up smarter than them. Well ok, I like them again now. Anyway, I’m going to sleep, I can’t be late for school again tomorrow! Goodnight. (I already wrote the note for that girl...I just have to work up the courage to give it to her at break time...wish me luck!).

Dear Journal, 

I dropped my son off at school today after collecting the final draft of a project I have to present to the Board later. He was so mad with me for bringing him to school late, and he looked so cute shuffling over to assembly with his huge schoolbag and lunch kit. My wife and I just watched him for a while talking about what he could be thinking. He kept trying to wave us away with this embarrassed look on his face while looking around nervously to make sure no one would know we were his parents. It was the funniest thing. We both made sure to wave and blow the horn...my wife even blew him a kiss for good measure. Little kids are so silly. I wonder what it is they think about all day. With no cares or worries or bills to think about it must be a pretty nice time. I just hope he enjoys it because it doesn’t last for very long. I wish I could remember what primary school was like. The life of homework, tests, cartoons and friends. Ah well, I guess I’ll write again when I’m not so busy. See you again in a few months old pal. (Wife says I’m too old to have a diary...I keep reminding her it’s a JOURNAL...big difference! Women can be such haters).
