Well, after lots of work, Henry is MINE! I think I handled the situation quite maturely to be honest. Sure, I was depressed and totally emo-ish, but still. I feel weird about the whole thing. I fell for him for who he was, but he acts so different around me now. He acts… like a boyfriend. And I’m not sure if I like it! Is that a bad thing? Huh. So confused, again. It’s 9:35 and my new bedtime is 9:00 so I will write about conferences tomorrow.

Over the coming months, I'll be publishing several journal entries a day in chronological order. I began journaling in 2007, when I was eleven years old. Even then I wrote as though I were archiving my life, collecting details about my world. As I grew older, journaling became more of a description of my emotional world.
I am an aspiring creative nonfiction writer who is producing very little since graduating college this Spring. But with this unusually thorough account of my entire adolescence, I feel as though I have been given a gift that has been under my nose this whole time.
This is a practice in forgiveness and vulnerability. It is also a way to laugh at myself.
