Dear Diary:
What else can go wrong? You know some days I wish I could just live with Eric and forget all this. Living at Kyle's. Joan and Dad. Mom. Oh, and I still haven't seen my sister yet and school starts day after tomorrow.
I know I should be there for Leia, but why should I? I mean, she will always be that girl on the look out for someone to drive her somewhere even if she doesn't have a boyfriend. I hope Dylan isn't her boyfriend, but then again, maybe she needs someone just like him to bring her down to earth and give her a reality check. She's got these plans in drama this year. She was all talk about how academic she's going to be. How much better she is. blah.blah.blah. Not a word about Nick who's being practically shunned. I mean, I don't want to ignore him, but then I don't want him thinking I like him, either. I do have a boyfriend.
Which brings us to Eric. I want him. I can't help it. But then I start to think, do I want him for all the wrong reasons? Its so not easy trying to find that happy balance. Does everyone go through this?
Mix in the family stuff. Oh, that family dinner. Kyle's brother Sam is coming to dinner. I want Eric to be here, but if he comes then Kyle has to have Roxie. I don't want it to be this huge dinner. I mean, it is just his brother. How have I gone so long without meeting Sam?
Better call Mom. I said I would. I just don't know what we are supposed to talk about. The things I want to talk about with her I can't. I bet she'll ask about my hair, again.
Later,
L
I have to say that these types of entries are my favorite: I love the letters and diary entries, they are really great! I think eric is good: I wish Ellie could just let go and enjoy herself!
ReplyDeleteAnd oh: I made it so that you get with John Robinson. :) check out this link! :)
poor Ellie-hope she gets some issues resolved, partcularly with her mum!!
ReplyDeleteoh gosh thanks for all the answers, ellie, i completely got everything messed up in my head :-( sorry. as soon as i read your reply comment, i remembered all these things because obviously i had read them, but i had just misplaced them in my head.
ReplyDeletepoor ellie, indeed it seems like everything is going wrong for her now - except her wonderful relationship with eric, obviously. i don't think ellie HAS TO be there for leia - leia hasn't been a very good friend to ellie in the past, and in my experience it is better to remain on shallow terms with people who have proved not to be very good friends.
i don't think thereasons for which ellie wants eric are at all wrong. no reason for wanting someone can be really wrong (except if you want someone for his money, but that's not the case with eric and ellie)... but i think it's just a phase everyone goes thru - she will find her balance.
wow, ellie hasn't even met kyle's brother? i thought she would have while they were together, not now after they've split up, but that little fact makes the story all the more interesting.
i used to hate her mom. but now, i feel sorry for her. do i really have to? =[
ReplyDeletepoor ellie:(
ReplyDeleteKyle has a brother? O_O
ReplyDeletemoms and the nagging.
ReplyDeletei have a feeling that sam will be trouble...
leia is that one bad friend that you can't let go of.
I hope her and her mom resolve their issues
